Yesterday I looked in on my Northwesterns. Looking through the screen front I saw a very pleasant surprise. A baby Northwestern sitting on the rim of the water dish. This little one has been avoiding me since it was born with it's siblings. Unfortunately all the siblings have died(failure to thrive).
This little one seems strong and appears to be doing well. Since they did so poorly after removing them the last time I think I will let the little one stay in with the adults for now.
It eagerly took two earthworms from me so it's eating well.
Good to see they all didn't die.

Re: A Pleasant Surprise
It's so tiny! Just a quick question, after feeding two worms of that size, how often would you wait to feed again?
