So I felt like going out and collecting some isopods tonight, and caught around 200, I wanna say. Lots of places around the house to find them. :D
While I was doing that, I caught two earwigs. By my googling, I have a male and female, based on the pincer shape. I was thinking, if they...
After a few months of growing some worms and then separating them I have plenty of pupae, and now two beetles! Whee-hee! Found one last night, then a VERY fresh one earlier this afternoon.
First one:
Both of them:
Anyone know if there's a way to sex the beetles? I noticed...
So I got my larvae a while ago, and now I'm pupating them. Already got about 10, and the oldest ones are beginning to emerge. I haven't set up the beetle bin yet (derp!), but I have just one question:

I'm not picky about color. With reptiles, I like morphs, but I...
I've been lurking here for a while, since chameleons keep catching my attention. I still can't even decide what species I want. XD Though I think I'm leaning towards a panther. However, I probably won't actually get things going on until I get my medical problems under control (basically got...
