Fuzzy mice might be a bit large for dwarf pyxies. They might like pinkies better. How about large crickets?

You may be overfeeding them. Offer them food every couple of days and if they don’t want it, don’t feel frustrated. They will eat when they feel hungry. You’ll never go wrong if you don’t offer more food until the frog has pooped.

Pyxies are ambush eaters. They wait until food walks by them and then they gobble it up.

I have three pyxies. They all have different appetites and different food preferences.
