Caught him outside in my backyard on a concrete floor. Took him inside to give him 6 hydei flies and he munched each one like I would eating tri tip at a buffet restaurant. Then I took him outside to place him on a plant, but he continued to stay on my hands, and snatch a few gnats with precision, speed, and accuracy. He's small, but with quite an appetite. What a beast for a feast.
