Question Feeding Eastern Glass Lizards

Hey Guys,

How do you feed glass lizards? I have one that is around 4 inches in length,he burrowed,and I suspect he only comes out at night,what do I do to ensure he gets fed?

I realize what it is that they eat,but I haven't seen him come out,so he must come out at night. He's burrowed into the substrate and I can't ensure that he's getting food.

Then feed him about half n hour after lights go off, or just wait until you see him out. You can try tong feeding or letting the prey run around in the tank, but if you do that make sure you don't leave the food in with him over night(this is only if its crickets, if its mealworms or something in a bowl, thats fine).

if you could post a pic of your setup and give us some background info (like how long you've had him), we should be able to give you better info. according to the link that was posted, he should be active during the day, but may burrow during the day as well. if he isn't coming out at all during the day, something about his habitat could be off, or he could be stressed.
