| do i need a water dish? i thought it would just drink the water droplets off the leaves. i got a food dish today at the pet store. it is one of those stump looking ones. it fell off the counter when i got home tho and broke a little. i might still try to use it tho. what do you feed yours in?

well, normally cresties will just drink from water droplettes but it is a good idea to offer a small dish with water any way. As far as food, i normally put some babyfood on some random leaves and branches to make him look for it, but meal worms i put into a little dish...its a tiny little ceramic dish i got for like 50 cents at the petstore. _________________ 1.1 ribbon snakes

i just fed him. i never knew how fast they were! he is a good jumper too.
after him trying to escape while on my bed i moved him back to his cage and put some CGD on a leaf. he eventually ate 1/3 of what i made for him. i used a 1/4tsp measure spoon and used 1 scoop of diet and 2 of water.
here are some pics. i didnt get any of him eating because i didnt have my cam with me. i got some of him running around afterwards tho.
