My Teyla hunts and eats her bugs like a pro.

My Teyla hunts and eats her bugs like a pro.  I am NOT worried about her at all, but Teal'c hasn't eaten much in days.  🙁  He doesn't seem like he's very good at catching crickets, yet he prefers those to worms.  So he's eaten very little since he's been here.  Like, only a few crickets since the weekend.  NOT GOOD.  He perked up yesterday after I misted him and then ate a bug.  But that's it.  One all day.  🙁  

The veggies look disturbed (like they have been nommed) so maybe he's eating those, but he needs some protein.  So I gave him a bath and then syringe fed him baby food mixed with vitamins.  It was a slow start, but once he tasted it he ate a good bit.  He seemed pretty into it so when he finally slowed down I washed him up (because syringe feeding is a little messy) and then put him under his light so he could digest.

So, Laurel, you are not the only one syringe-feeding babies right now.  🙂  I actually don't mind it - but now I'm in "mommy mode" (what is it about nursing / syringe-feeding babies that does that?!) so if anything happens to him, well, I'm not gonna be ok.

ALSO - I saw both of my babies wave today!  I don't know what brought it on, but O.M.G.  It was fucking adorable.  😃😃😃
