So i have a 5 inch axolotl i recently got. for the first few days i fed her pellet food till i could find live red wigglers. yesterday was the first time i fed her one. though the shop i got it from said that the ones i bought were not full size and smaller than the fish bait ones i still thought it was too big and i cut it in half before i fed it to my axy. she loved it, it was gone in less than 2 sec. she seemed fine. today i got home and did the same thing, cut the wiggler in half and feed it to my axy, she wasnt as enthusiastic this time. i had to leave it in her food dish and she ate it about an hour later. now fast forward 5 hours to right now, she started to puke up wht it looks like the remains of the wiggler, half digested. now she is floating the front of her body with her legs still on the ground and pulsing her throat. looks like she might want to throw up a bit more. im a little worried. wondering if this has happened to anyone else?
also is it because half of the wiggler is still too big? i mean this worm was actually pretty small. should i cut it into 3rds? or could it be something to do with the worm itself, not the size? any advice much appreciated.
