It appears that my source for springtails is defunct. I have used Josh’s frogs, but I had found another place with a sale on springtails and went with them instead. Now I am not even hearing crickets from this place and the tracking number shows it was never even brought to the post office...

I only had isopods previously but I ordered some springtails yesterday. Just add random tree leaves?

Hmm, that's a good idea, but the roaches are all sizes, I would have to continually hunt down the bigger ones and move them to the inside. I have begun to create a separate bin for just the cleaners. I was thinking I would need to transfer a few roaches at a time into that bin as a restart for...

So, a few months ago, we forgot to feed the roach colony (Surinam) and they ate all of the cuc (isopods). So, I spent $25 on 100 isopods to add back in, but despite the adequate food for the roaches, I assume the Surinams just ate them all again. We now have a roach colony that is in bad shape...

Not happening in February in Michigan. 😂

This is really good to know! My husband wouldn’t let us get roaches until we assured him they couldn’t infest the house. 😅

We aren’t having any issues with where the colony is kept. We have a couple inches of substrate in a glass terrarium with a screen slide-on cover. Vaseline around the top inside of the glass is precautionary because I have never seen any try to escape. I have had to perfect a method of capturing...

Good to hear, thanks!

Thank you so much for the feedback and the recommended feeder. I will order one and we’ll give it a try.

Thank you! Two things we can definitely try! 👍

Thanks, I will look into this if I think they're living in any of the other plants. The plant I found them all in was on its way out anyway, so after getting out the 35 and a bunch of the babies, I put the pot out in the snow to kill them that way. ha!

Thank you, we don't fertilize the plants in the enclosure at all but there definitely would have been rotting roots and decay in that pot. I was so surprised that so many roaches could live in the pot without being fed. They must have been eating the decaying plant.

We currently feed my daughter’s cham, Yoda, Surinam roaches. (Thanks to @jamest0o0 for helping us get a colony going.) This has been going great, but we are realizing the roaches are sometimes escaping the “shooting gallery” feeder. Maybe we just need to upgrade to the bigger one, but I don’t...

Here’s a close up picture of his spur.

@userBandit Yes, he’s a baby. His spurs aren’t in much yet, but they’re there. :)

Yoda loves them!!! and I did wash the leaves well. :)

@Pickle-cham I don't know about locusts, but I think trying out some roaches is our next step. I know there aren't restrictions on those and we're just hoping for live food that is less likely to escape and chirp in the house at night. :LOL:

@jamest0o0 Thank you so much for this. We'll do some exploring and will probably reach out via PM at some point.

Hello!!! My chameleon, Yoda, has a lot of new plants. He did have a croton, two pothos, and a cana lilly, but they were dying. We think they were dying because I didn't water them very often. I also didn't have any grow lights. With Christmas money, I ordered a led plant light from Costco...
