Im right along with you on knowing tons of stuff about them. I have read countless information on them. I really dont see them as being extremly agreesive to death. How many in total do you have? I feed mine phoenix worms and squash, since those two are THE best food for them. IndianaVX (david) has one too.
I never got mine to eat the cubes yet. How many crix do you go through a week? Thanks for the info.
