Interesting (and cute). Little thrill seekers doing some base-jumping. 😂 Wheeeee

Just an fyi that this thread is originally from 2016. ;)

If nothing spooked him, then I have no idea.

Have you tried https://framschams.com/ for silkies? Or https://www.coastalsilkworms.com/silkworms.html and https://www.lindasgonebuggie.com/page/397479218 although I think both are currently out. Josh’s frogs is another place for good feeders. You can definitely feed the silk moths to your...

I should add - both of my panther boys are ‘friendly’ and almost always will come out onto my hand when I open their enclosures. However, every now and then for no discernible reason they will fire up and karate pose like they don’t know me or are scared of me. 🤷‍♀️

I haven’t heard of nor witnessed jumping without cause. When feeling threatened or very stressed, they will jump/fall as a last ditch attempt to escape the threat. A couple of mine have done that while walking thru the house to take them outside. (I rarely take them out as a result). They do...

I most definitely would use only safe (veiled tested) plants with your veiled girl, since veileds do eat their plants. Panthers are much safer to use silk plants with, if you must. I don’t sterilize my natural branches. I do give them a wash and gentle scrub with Dawn dish soap to get bird and...

Merry Christmas to those who celebrate it. 🎄🎅💗

I found this the other day on my cutie patootie, petite purple princess. I’m not sure how long it’s been there, but it can’t have been too long without me noticing it. She’s usually way above my short little head and I guess usually facing so that it would be behind her. Anyhow, it’s quite hard...

Merry Christmas to you and Rango. 💗

I get happy when I find little mushrooms growing in my bioactive set ups. They don’t stay long and are rare visitors that tell me my soil is healthy.
