Hello. On january the 14th i got my little sausage. Bodo friedel came from germany to vienna and gave me this little cutie. It is a Mt. Koghis Tröger - Friedel mix. His mother was a Tröger line - his father a Friedel line. He was 11 cm and 8 gramm. I put him in an exoterra cube 12x12x18 with a lot of hides and corkbars, vines etc. Ground is coconut soil. For the light i use the compact top with two 13 Watt 5.0 Uvb bulbs. Humidity is between 60 ( day) and 90 % (night , just after misting - drops down to 60 % until the morning and during the day). On the highest point, near the bulbs there are 85 degrees, a few cm down, 78 and down on the ground 71 degrees. So he can choose the temperature he prefers. I give him Pangea Banana - Papaya, Repashy 3.0 and Big Fat Gecko fruit mix. He likes the Pangea CGD most. Waxworms and crickets - he did not even look at them... I knew, that they might stop eating for quite a long time, but in 13 days i just saw lick marks on three days and no poop. So i put him out and weighted him. I was surprised. He had 10,5 gramm now. I tried to spoon feed him and he ate nearly the whole tea spoon of Pangea.
Here you can see a few pics, when i got him and from his cube.
Today i got a smaller cube, also Exoterra, but 8x8x12. So he should eat even better.
I hope everything looks good and i did not make a mistake.
I´m really curious, how he or she ( don´t know at the moment) will look as adult.....
