So here's the dilemma I'm currently in: I just purchased 1000 small crickets from an online vendor for $25 which is substantially cheaper than getting 50-100 at a time from petco/petsmart (~$5-$10). Here I am a week later and they've already grown a substantial amount. I suspect they will be...
My guy has a small appetite as well. Coincidently I got my panther from Chad too....I bet he's selling the weak ones and keeping the hefty eaters for himself :D
I usually throw 8-9 small crickets in there every morning and he only seems to eat 5 or 6 of them. He refuses to eat from my hand...
In one of my previous posts someone said:
And I have yet to find a straight answer - is it or is it not ok to use cardboard egg-crate that was previously used for eggs?
Hrm, he seems to get bored quickly after a few and just head back to his basking lamp. I usually put 5-8 in and they're gone by the next day. So he's either eating them or they're escaping. I'll throw a few extra in there and see if he eats them. I've also tried superworms but he pretty much...
thanks ferretinmyshoes! I was searching the board earlier but couldn't find a good response regarding the fan. Where can one pick up larger sheets of eggcrate? The pet stores are pretty stingy with them.
they're small crickets, and they only last me a few days before a good majority of them are dead =/ I'll set the fan up tonight and see if I can get em to live longer.
I've got ~4 small pieces of eggcrate I got when purchasing my crickets. I also have 2 empty toilet paper rolls. Eggcrate used by eggs is bad? What's the reasoning behind it?
it hasn't gotten too hot here yet so I'd say it's low to mid 80s. No humidity. I'm thinking it's air movement but I...
Hi everyone! I'm having some issues keeping my crickets alive. I tried searching the forums but I can't find what I'm looking for so hopefully you guys can clear up a few questions I have.
I currently keep my crickets in the garage. They live in a rubbermaid container with holes drilled in...
Hey everyone, just wanted to share some pics of my little guy Kepler & his cage!
He's a ~2 month old blue-bar Amilobe. I purchased him from TikiTiki at the LV reptile expo a few weekends ago. I originally didn't plan on getting one but Chad persuaded me after several hours of...
Hey Matthew,
my new baby panther is doing the same thing as yours. He loves the top of the cage, and seems to fall asleep an hour or two before the lights are scheduled to go out. I think it's normal...but I also got mine from tiki so it may be a conspiracy :D
