Thanks for the comments. Yes he is growing very fast. Can't wait until I see his colors when he gets older. Also can't wait to see his Veil begin to grow as well.
Well I went and picked up a Hot Glue gun today and I will be making my Cricket house this week sometime. THanks for the ideas, tips, and pictures. If anyone has anything else please feel free to share.
I am going to be doing an order of 500 crickets very soon. I was wondering what everyone does and uses to house crickets in volume. Any advice, tips, tricks, and pictures of what you do would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you
Alright thanks. I am in Wisconsin and thinking I may wait until it warms up a bit as it is getting close to 10F at night. I see they crickets themselves aren't bad but the shipping is what will get you.
Other than crickets what do you recommend feeding a Veiled?
I am looking at possibly doing mail order on crickets. Thinking it has to be cheaper going that route than it is going to the store and buying them every few days.
So I guess I am looking to find where everyone gets their crickets from? If ordering a larger quantity what do you suggest...
Well everything seems to be fine. Every time I go check out the cage he seems to have moved to a different spot in the cage and so forth. Seems to be happy and is eating crickets and drinking water. So I am assuming he is okay with his new digs and the layout.
Alright I re-vamped the enclosure for Hercules. Here are the updated photo's. Please Critique and let me know of anything I should change or think about doing to make it better. Thank you in advance.
The plant on the bottom left is a pothos plant. I am running a basking bulb in the back...
So tonight I plan on re-making the terranium. I plan on adding the grow bulb. Also need to pick up a basking bulb as the 60w bulb isn't putting out much heat at all. I am also going to be adding the Pothos plant and taking out the foam background that is in the tank right now. I plan on...
Well I switched the halogen bulbs and added a dome fixture to the back of the habitat. Moved the other fixture all the way to the front and the back bulb still hits where all the vines are. I will have to go find me a plant grow bulb tomorrow for the front to get the other UVB bulb out of there.
I never thought of the whole orange thing. I did add a piece of green pepper to the cricket tank and they went nuts over that.
This forum has been a huge help to me. I can only imagine it getting better and better as I learn more. Absolutely love forums like this. I used forums all the...
Alright that should make things a lot easier in the long run for me then and not have to worry about the CFL bulb then. I have repti-glo 5.0 bulbs right now. Maybe I will use these up then switch to the Repti-sun or would I be better off going to Reptisun right away?
This bulb...
Awesome thank you very much for the long write up. So do you not use any of the "cricket drinks" ?
I wouldn't mind hearing anyone elses opinion. the more I ideas I can get the better.
Alright thanks for the reply. Does anyone else have an opinion on which fixture I would be better off with? I kind of like the thought of the two bulb fixture for cleanliness and so forth. However, I want what would be best for the Chameleon.
I ended up picking up a Pathos plant today as...
