Hi does anyone collect silverfish as pets? If so, any tips on feeding them something they might actually take (and not ignore)? For such "hungry" creatures they sure seemto go right past anything I put for them to eat and I have tried sooo many suggested things from the net... And also do you have any advice on how to store them and keep them comfortable and healthy. I have had 99% of mine all die within a week. It's the same old story and a very depressing one as I have read they are supposed to be so "hardy" and can go without food, water, etc for a year. And can live around 8 years... Yet everyone (except one presently) has started out looking healthy, fast, smart, elusive, but over a week's time weakened, slowed down, started moping around instead of moving 24/7. And then suddenly had movement problems where there bodies are all over the place (can no longer walk smoothly or fluently) and they NEVER recover from that point on... They all followed this same awful pattern and I know I must be doing something wrong here in keeping such a "hardy' creature as a pet...
Thanks.
Thanks.
