Any way my axie wont eat his earth worms.
I put them in front of him but he grabs them then drops them and walks away:confused: So i cut them a little shorter and he still does the samething what do i do??
 
one of mine does the same, he used to eat them very well but now he doesn't take them and spit them back, so I feed him reptomin and nightcrawlers...
 
My male does that at times. If I try to hand feed him he'll spit them back in disgust but if I leave them in the tank a little while he comes back and eats them. What can I say, he has an independent streak :rolleyes:
The female will do it when she's not really hungry as well. She only eats every other day and if I try more often she will do the grab, spit and walk away routine.

All you can really do is keep offering food and see if he will eat it when he's ready or try some different foods maybe he's bored with worms. It's also possible they taste a little different than they did before. I imagine what they eat will effect the flavor of them... and I just made myself feel sick thinking about it :( yuck

Good luck.
 
some worms give off a nasty taste. You could try and soaking the worms in water before you give them to your axie.
My axies wont eat worms at all. I fed mine bloodworms and axie pellets.

    Would Chinese fire belly newts be more or less inclined towards an aquatic eft set up versus Japanese . I'm raising them and have abandoned the terrarium at about 5 months old and switched to the aquatic setups you describe. I'm wondering if I could do this as soon as they morph?
