Hello everybody! I'm very happy with my 3 Axies. They are grow up a lot!! haha But I have question yet! I'm feeding with earthworms one time per day. I think can be so much, but they are eating all and probably if I put more, they will eat! Can I put more? Other question, one of my axie is very quiet (wild type), he has a problem in a eye, can be it? The golden was very active for some time, but now he is more calm to, but the white is very active!! He swimming all the time and come to me on the top. he Makes a show when my friends are here lol. this diferences are common? thanks for all! |

| Judging from the photo's they are a bit overweight so you are probably feeding them more often than what is required. I feed my two 1 worm every 3 days or so and they maintain a healthy looking weight.

They will eat as long as you continue to offer food to them and by the looks of it, they have you wrapped around their finger because you are giving in to their "I'm hungry" face. Try to feed them less during the week until they lose a little bit of weight and then I would suggest feeding them worms every 3 days or so. You could also offer pellets if you have some. Could you please take a photo of the wild type from the side and all 3 from above?

They look okay from the top view, except the white one looks a bit TOO wide Cutting down the feeding to once every 3 days or so should be okay and hopefully they lose a little bit of weight soon |
