Oh yeah, I noticed my male refused the waxworms also, maybe the BSFL and other worms. I know he's been eating something, but not actually sure what. I haven't tried crickets yet. I'll try and get some soon. I've just been scared of escapees because of my living situation. Thanks. I started...

So I've had them for almost a couple months now. They seem to be doing good. The female is growing fast, but I was most worried about the male. Food for them I've thrown in there include mealworms, waxworms, waxworm moths, black soldier fly larva, a black soldier fly, and some small mystery...

A quick update: I weighed them both a few days apart and their weight increased slightly. Didn't weigh them on arrival, but still seems like promising news and I have seen them both eat.

Thank you. @Mendez Looks like I guessed correctly on their gender. She seems much smaller and younger than the other, so I guess I missed out on any wild babies from her. I'll have to find some good branches. I had a cute little pitcher plant that was growing nicely, but took it out for...

A few months ago I posted a list of plants that can be found in Madagascar. Mostly ignored that list and and turned it into a generic terrarium with the hope that I'd be able to put some Brookesia in it eventually. It's been growing for a while now. A front opening 40 gallon. On Saturday I...

Good luck. Follow the guides. I tried cutting corners on a cricket bin and it failed, but now there is an accidental self sustaining population in my bioactive enclosure.

Have the same experiments been done on veileds where they increase in water weight overnight after fogging?

I have some escaped crickets in my bioactive setup that are still reproducing months later. They're a bit annoying because my guy will eat those instead of the dubia roaches. My intended cricket bin was not done right and stunk and died.

Glad to hear it! Good luck on the baby!

Looking at iNaturalist, looks like Discoderus obsidianus which is my best preliminary guess.

A few months ago I found a lot of little black bugs in a trap and brought them inside and tried to feed them to my little guy. Soon after they infested my house. Until then, they seemed good enough, and bred prolifically so I threw them in my Dubai box to see what happened. Months later they're...

I've got a zoomed 40 gal ~36x18x18 on a wire shelf. Won't get anything in it other than plants for a while though. The tank is sitting on it's plastic trim bits and not the glass. It's a lot more stable than it looks, but when I move again I'll try and find one with actual pins.

Thanks, that's very good to know.

How long does import season last? I decided I shouldn't get any until after the holidays since I'll be gone too long and too often.

It's so close to being amazing, but it sheds so much and makes it not very good. Seems like there not a very good replacement for natural branches. Fake vines fall apart, bamboo can allegedly cause splinters, and I've heard plain dowels are too smooth and uniform and not recommended. Maybe...
