[@JTSWebSeries]

Love your scaley friends! The color on the Tokays is gorgeous! Question: How do you get your Crested Geckos to eat worms? I have been trying to entice my Gargoyle Gecko to eat worms and he does not seem interested at all.

[@rpm_ozzy9843]

A solution could be to just buy some tweezers if you dont already feed him or her with it

[@JTSWebSeries]

@@rpm_ozzy9843 I have some tweezers that I use to feed my Leo. The problem is the Garg does not seem interested in the worm at all. Ill have to dip it in the powder diet to entice him. Lol

[@YTDaimera]

Growing up in Hawaii put me in an environment for eating a decent amount of unusual seafood, but hilariously related to this video, a nearby Asian market actually had cooked silkworm pupae in the frozen food section! I bought some several days ago as a curiosity and marinated them in teriyaki sauce, and fried them up a few nights to eat with rice. They're very good prepared that way, actually! I'm probably going to buy more and try different preparations methods! I'm a huge fan of entomophagy, so it's always cool to find a reliable source of it. Just after that, I'd say the second strangest thing I've eaten is century egg; wasn't as much a fan of that, but that doesn't mean I wouldn't ever try it again, since there seems to be a decent amount of variety to warrant further examination.

[@tanakeilidh384]

It's always enjoyable to peek in on your little beauties after a long break. You take such good care of them all! I was thrilled also to see how well your plants have grown in. Good show, old chap! Thank you, Dayan 👍🫶🖖

[@jordanbarnett7247]

Idk if you'll read this but i just want to say. I just got a green tree monitor so ive been watching your videos from 2 years ago when you first got sabzi and basil. Your production quality has increased tremendously!!! It was already very good 2 years ago, but watching this video now i can REALLY tell the improvement. Good job

[@jordanbarnett7247]

Your content is the highest quality content on KZbin pertaining to green tree monitors, and that was your crap from 2 years ago!! Lol

chocolate covered mealworms. kinda reminded me of the nestle crunch bars. and some kind of pasta salad that was popular in the 80s, where it was basically tiny pastas, mayonaise and peas. no seasoning. at all. i wonder if my tarantulas would be interested in silk worms, my cresties are like mmm no. don't like that with every other type of worm i've offered them, but even then its enrichment :D would love to see a gecko feeding vid!

Szabzy (sp?) is my favorite! I know I’ve never met her but I absolutely LOVE her!🦎 You can see how smart she is. The way she thinks is written all over her beautiful face and she’s so healthy.

[@torquess454]

Oof that shini’s paludarium is looking soooo good!! My beardie has a toe like Sabzi unfortunately, it happens, it took a year to get the stuck ring of shed off, the vet finally just cut through the ring of skin and after treating and soaking it finally loosened. Still has a bit of a knobby toe and weird long toe nail though. How’d you get Sabzi’s she’d ring off? Basil, what a distinguished gentleman! So handsome and regal lol he’s come so far, well done Dayyan (hey! I typed that before you said it! Lol) Isn’t it funny how we all congratulate our babies when they eat or poop? I’m constantly saying “good job girl/boy!” Like it’s a talent or something lol

[@cara9648]

QOTD: I've had grasshoppers and crickets, but they just taste nutty to me, so I don't really consider them a strange food. However, a strange food to my child self that I have yet to top would be some freeze dried astronaut foods that tasted horrible, didn't taste like the food they were supposed to be, and the texture was odd.

QOTD answer: The weirdest thing I've ever eaten? I honestly cannot say cause I've never really been interested in doing something like that but when I lived in South Africa, one thing some communities will eat there and is considered a delicacy is Mopani worms. Me personally? No thanks! Loool I didn't see anything weird aerved in Iran apart from a breakfast meal made out of a sheep or goats head (can't remember which) and the idea of having a cooked head for breakfast was a bit weird to me. In the 5 years I was there, nope. About the only food I didn't try.
