What kinds of phasmids are good feeder options? Obviously the Indian stick insect, but what about other ones such as leaf insects Phyllium, or giant spiny stick insects? They seem to be the most prolific feeders, so why don't more people use them? Aside from being illegal in Canada and the...

How often can I feed these buggers to my 3 year old veiled? I know the larvae are very high in fat, are the mots the same? I got 100 waxworms hoping to turn some into moths. My little 3 month old panthers won't touch em! Probably not a bad thing because they are unhealthy. I just bought them for...

I have a 3.5 month old male ambilobe that seems to be way smaller than he should be. He is just over 4 inches total length. I got him from Chameleon Nation a month ago and he doesn't seem to have grown much. He has completed one shed since I've had him. I free range his food in his screen...

I would like to get some of these for my chams so if anyone has them for sale please PM me. Anyone who has other species of roach other than Dubia and Death Heads I am interested too.

I just had some baby Dubia's escape. I know everyone says they can't infest but I have a woodstove for heating that gets really hot. I need to be reassured that they can't infest a house in Canada because I am really worried! It turns out the little buggers can climb plastic rubbermade bins!

I picked up 70 of these bad boys this weekend to try with my veiled. He loves them and eats em really fast. I am interested in breeding them and have found some info but I have a few queries. I isolated 14 to let become beetles and I am keeping them warm and dark. About how long will it take to...

Who actually breeds their own silkworms or hornworms. It seems to be a lot of work for a small yield, but I have never tried it so...

Today I found these eggs inside my chams cage. Does anyone know what type of eggs they are? The cage has been in cold storage since summer. It looks like a few have hatched, do you think they are still viable? I will try to remove them but the are glued on well. Thanks P.S Will post pics in...

This is Waldo my newest panther. He is just under 4 months and I just moved him into his bigger screen viv.

Today I found 2 Blaberus Fusca nymphs in my dubia bin. I want to start a colony. Is their care an different from dubias?:confused:

Does anybody no how to get some of these in Ontario? I recently got some dubias from a local pet shop but they don't have anything other than turks, hissers, and dubias. Any info appreciated.

I am really sorry if this issue has been debated to death, but I cannot find an answer using the search. How often should I use Miner-all (I) for a 3 month old panther? I read that it has different levels of vit D3 than rep-cal so the schedule will be different. Also, how often for an adult...

Since winter is closing in fast where I live I decided to give grasshopper breeding a try since my guys love grasshoppers but I don't want to risk the parasites. I collected 12 adult red legged grasshoppers last week and put them in a 5 gal tank with soil, some damp cornflakes and some native...

Would 2nd generation houseflies hatched in captivity be clean? Their parents would be wild caught.

I was wondering if it would be okay to move my male panther into a custom made screen cage that is 16"x16"x30" I know that it would be very big for him and I would need to place plenty of feeder insects in there so he can find them. It has an umbrella tree that will provide sufficient cover. The...

I am new to this forum but have been using it as an information tool for a long time. I currently have one adult male veiled and a 7 week old panther. I had a male nosy be panther who died 3 years ago before I got my veiled, and I decided to get another panther I am wondering the sex of baby...
