Just received my first batch of pupae any i dea how long they take to hatch? I kept most of them in the fridge but put a few in a sealed Tupperware in my snakes cage under the heat lamp so its about 90 degrees. Am i lookin at hours, days, or a week till they hatch??
Would it be harmful or beneficial if i were to mist my chams cage an hour n half before lights turn on? I leave for work bout an hour to hour n half before the lights come on and dont get home till 3hrs before the lights turn off. Would it be ok to lightly mist before i leave home?
Seeing how i live in FL dubias are illegal. Since i dont want to end up like this guy

Just like the title says. I know i can acquire tubing and a plastic container at walmart or home depot for cheap. Prolly just order the mist nozzle online if i cant find one. The main thing im unsure of is what type of pump do i need to get??

Had my cham 3 days. Come home from a 14hr work day on a Friday and it would appear that my cat jumped on top of the cage and the screen caved in. When i got home the timer had already shut everything off for night time but one of the plants got burned by the basking light that fell in. Thank God...
