I have heard that if you clip greens or flowers in the cage, he may or may not eat them. But, if you clip them and then spray them where he drinks he is more than likely to consume some of it. Then he might not feel the need to eat any of your plant. I think he would be craving something in...

I released the caterpillar in question, I generally put the insects I catch in a ten gallon with a lid and some turnip/collard greens and a cup of grain. The reason I'm so into this is because of my location and the availability of nice fat green grasshoppers, katydids, crickets, and etc. I do...

I could gut load it the way I do with the grasshoppers, it's a tomato worm as far as I can tell and i'm guessing it's been eating the blackberry patch because that's where I found it. I'm just going to release it but i was curious as to whether some caterpillars were more dangerous than others...

I've been experimenting with collecting from my field out back, mostly just grasshoppers but today I found a soft caterpillar, looks kind of like a brown silkworm. Just wondering if I can feed it to one of my panthers.

I've been looking into buying one of these and I'm just wondering what to use as a reservoir? just a bucket?

I have a small colony of hissers too, It has been my first attempt at insect breeding. I hate opening the thing they are in but they sure don't smell as bad as crickets. Breed well too. Are dubias superior in some way? I'm afraid to feed my panthers any larger than an inch, and the darn...

Oh, the reason I said bad breed is because of the horrible specimens I have seen, I attribute that to a mix of (like Sandra said) bad owners and the fact that they are prohibited within the areas where I live (seems they only get the good ones). I didn't really mean demeanor entirely, but I've...

Ya I actually have a pit/boxer mix, she is sweet as can be and very loyal. That's what makes me think line breeding is useful, or at least that there's a reason for it.

I would replace the dog food it could lead to gout in your reptile. I just feed my roaches veggies and grain with the occasional fruit. Also I use water crystals.

I've used spider plants for terrariums, they seem OK to me, I'm currently using a few silk ones that I picked up for top foliage (hanging pots make me nervous in all but the most sturdy cages :confused: ). I have a chameleon with a yucca and she seems to like the leaves as cover but she...

OK well what about dogs then? I've been told that line breeding is put into use with the American Pit Bull... Are they not more complicated than a chameleon? (it does seem like kind of a bad breed though :confused: ) I have pardalis and jacksoni and would never do it (morality, don't...
