Swyft had two small dubias for breakfast. He was so excited to see them running around in the tray, its too cute to see his eyes light up like that. Today's temps stayed cooled so I did not use the air conditioner. The humidity stayed up as well, I just misted when I got home from work...

His tail shedded, that was its issue. Today I bought Swyft a beautiful red hibiscus! They were on sale at Lowe's for only $18 and a ton of them in good shape. I repotted it into a larger pot, put the pot on a tote lid for drainage, and then the whole thing on a chair that I don't mind...

Swyft's tail is white. I'm concerned the ac is drying him out even with my misting. Thankfully today is a cooler day so I haven't turned on the Ac today. He's had a dubia for breakfast/brunch but hasn't swallowed it yet, still just holding it in his mouth and I'm not sure what that's...

Dubia for breakfast, who wants one? Swyft does! Long weekend of trying to keep up with the humidity levels and the heat level. I've got the heat situation covered with a room air conditioner but its sucking out all the moisture in the room! (as ac's do) GRRRRR. Can't keep up with the...

I think Swyft would have walked on my hand, arm, head, anywhere to get to the dubia's. He was so excited! But they were so creepy looking, and large, I was afraid he'd drop it on me or drop pieces of it out of his mouth onto me. Ew, I could not handle that yet. He had four of them this...

I had gut loaded some crickets yesterday so I wanted to feed those off. I wasn't planning on having the worms but he was still hungry that afternoon and I was afraid the gut loaded crickets would die. (they had been fed the night before) He ate four medium crickets, two had died during the day...

This morning Swyft was given two hornworms. Apparently those are not worth using my hand to reach for, though. Instead of climbing onto my hand he looked at me, looked at them, and shot and extra long tongue. BRAT. I could have moved the cup further away for the next shot but his expressions...

I fed Swyft six medium crickets today. Today was dusting with D3 and I marked it on the calendar in the room by his cage. I waited until this afternoon to feed him as I tallied up his intake yesterday and he had a total of 10. (small, and fed in increments through the day, but still.) He...

Looked over at Swyft and he was on his tummy in the front of him, in the potted plant, his hind legs were facing upwards on the vine above, (yoga position?) and his tail was way up high curling the tip around a higher branch. TOO CUTE. Then apparently he didn't find what he wanted because he...

A good day, he's very pretty and active. Today he was on my hand several times to get to the cup of crickets. He's not as skittish doing this and I've put up my guard against the grossness of the cricket when it gets near me in the cup. He's just so cute! I swear he smiles and frowns...

Brunch was three fairly large dusted crickets.

I got my education on sperm plugs today. Thanks, Swyft. :eek: I have no intention of touching that thing, he had better "work it out" himself. He's drinking and walkin' around with it. Um. Gross.

Really struggled today to keep humidity up. I have a small humidifier I'll have to start running in here I guess. The whole afternoon and evening was dry according to the hygrometer even with misting. I didn't want to over mist as the plant still had water all over its leaves.

Beautiful day here. Overcast slightly with warm temps and a refreshing breeze. Took Swyft out in his enclosure onto the front steps which were out of direct sun but not dark shade either. My neighbor came by and asked if her kids could come see him. I said sure, and they came trotting over...
