This is why I use roaches lol.

Is it a dwarf variety? It would probably be ok in a vivarium for awhile, but might eventually outgrow it.

I don't know what nasty bugs you're referring to. I wouldn't put a wc animal on a natural substrate without first passing a clean fecal exam. I guess I should clear up that by natural, I do not mean digging up soil from outside, but something like ABG mix. I then seed with springtails and...

Due to their size, I think they might be hard to grow indoors, unless you have a greenhouse. Any cham smaller than a parson's or oustalet might not be able to get a good foothold of the leaf stems. If I had a larger living room I'd try one. But for now I'd rather not have to duck under the...

Is it acting any differently? Even if there aren't any visible broken bones there could still be some swelling/bruising to it's soft tissues. If it appears ok, then I'd just give it lots of privacy to reduce stress as much as possible. Not to start an argument or offend anyone, but this is...

By "blue bulb" do you mean the Zoo Med daylight Blue bulb? They are ok. Is she able to escape the path of the UVB bulb? The compact fluorescent (or screw type) UVB bulbs emit a very high concentration of UVB over a tight range (even the 5% ones). I recommend positioning the UVB bulb near a...

If you ordered the dual T5 fixture from LYR, I think they come with a 6500k bulb included.

I have no experience with dischidia, but creeping fig is an easy, and fast grower under good lighting. You could train it to grow up your vines.

A jewel orchid would get destroyed by all but pygmies. I've been testing out a Lady Palm, and it is doing very well under vivarium conditions. It's supposed to be a slow grower, and one source which I read said that if grown under good lighting it'll only get about 4-5' tall. It provides...

Nice work. I'm tempted to take some off your hands in a few months, if they're available. Do you house them outside during our warmer months?

Those are nice looking wood vivs. It looks like they have rear vents at different heights, which move air quite a bit via convection. I'm assuming the top is all screen. As long as the dimensions suit you, my vote is for the wood viv. You may just need to waterproof the interior if not...

Ditto, if you want more light for the plants, just get 6500ks. Depending on how much light you want there are 2,4, and 8 bulb t5 fixtures available in 24" length. I run a 4 bulb fixture and only one is a uvb bulb, from Light Your Reptiles.

If I were closer I'd take one or two off of your hands.

I kept an awesome flapneck years ago. I negotiated her from a local pet shop in which she was nearly dead for $10. I started with a cage, but was not happy with the lack of humidity. I shuffled some other herps around and got her moved into a large tall aquarium that was heavily planted, and...

Congratulations! Have you tried any other feeders with them like isopods?
