My sister used to call me weiner snitzel when I was little… she’d usually shorten it to just weiner :LOL: But when my mom would catch her she’d switch to snitz for short!
Nice!! I had done the same but underestimated how tall the wheat / rye grass roots would get. Been meaning to try again. The grasshoppers loved it, especially the babies. Where did you get the feeder cage in the middle?
Nicely done! Someone gave me a tip to drape fabric over the opening...
This should not cause overly runny poops by any means. Thats a perfectly acceptable number of silks. Depending on your chams age and activity you may need to cut back on total feeders at some point to avoid over feeding, but not if still growing.

I’m not sure what pink slime
Is - can you take a photo? I’ve heard of pink slime but not sure Ive seen it in an enclosure. That being said, I had artillery fungus crop up in soil I purchased from
bio dude, which caused a ton of issues for me. Its not bio dudes fault - the fungus likely stowed...
