Let me start by saying i almost killed a Pothos. My Ficus Benjamin hated the daily watering from the mister and fogger. The soil was always damp. It was located in the least wettest spot, drainage was good, and a plant light was used. It suffered until I tossed it. Ultimately, I removed...
I breed my own grasshoppers. You can purchase them from Dragonhoppers.com or Feedmychameleon.com from Dean. I have also purchased from Khai Phan. You can contact him on Facebook. Breeding is easy. 2 years ago, I purchased breeders from Dean. Started my own colony. Last spring, I caught...
I also do the pet store trip for crickets, when needed. My main feeder is grasshoppers. No sound. No smell. No water. Easy to breed. They live a long time. Very little die off.
When I feed my Cham Locust, i do not feed him the kicker legs. I remove the legs above the knee to eliminate the bony kicker. IMO - The legs are bony. They have a small barb

2. They are gonna hide a oothaca because they don't want the nymphs to be chameleon snacks.
3. In their hidden community, they are training like Navy Seals.
4. They are gonna take over the WORLD...
I see you're still at it, "cute silkie bellies". Convincing us to breed our own creepy crawlers. Do you have any suggestions for one whom might have lost and hatched a Praying Mantis oothaca, in their home. I'm absolutely sure they were afraid to sleep for fear of 50-200 baby praying mantis...
It's really your fault @MissSkittles. Making me believe I was cool with creepy crawlers and that I should breed HawkMoths, Silkworms, Praying Mantis - by the way, I never found the ootheca I lost and grasshoppers. Well Grasshoppers might have been my idea but you did not discourage me. You...
Hornworms grow extremely quick. It's the only thing I buy from the chain pet store. If you only have 1 cham, I would buy the 4 pack from the pet store. After 2 weeks the hornworms might be too big for your Cham or they will have eaten all of their food and die from starvation. If you order...
