Hi @amanda7igert, welcome. @ERKleRose is awesome and I agree with all the advice she gave. @Lindasjackson is right in about the moss. Did you put in your enclosure to help keep the humidity levels? Depending on the part of NV you are in it can be so hot and dry. If you are looking to have the...
I been thinking about using them in my hornworm setup. Hornworms can eat them. I’m still trying to understand their toxicity tho. We can eat the leaves with no problem and they are quite yummy…it’s not a nightshade, but the LSD seeds are…confusing. I want to create a natural enclosure for my...
Hi All,
I’m slightly freaking out and need guidance about my girl Panther Cham, Iba. I’ll start by saying she has a vet appointment scheduled for 9/3. Today I noticed her bottom jaw is not aligned. I’ll attach photos.
She has been with me since 8/3, so not even a month yet. I've done a...
I started a red runner colony and my crew loves them but something I wish I knew ahead of time…those suckers are FAST with ninja level evasive maneuver skills 😅 I’m not even exaggerating. When I go feed them I have to plot on the best way to catch them lol.
Ooooooh you may have just saved me some time making a bin! Thank you.
I spoke too soon…aka before I clicked the link lol. I still appreciate the information tho. I need something a bit sturdier.
The issue with fabric bag is leaking. It would be hard to control your water drainage. You could combine the two fabric bag with a substrate tray under it.
Honestly, I would take a different route. I would use corrugated plastic and make a substrate bin…this is what I’m doing in the new hawk...
Hi All,
I made a concise video on how to setup a bioactive enclosure. It was tough to cram all the information into a minute and a half 😅
As always, I’m 100% open to feedback ❤️
Thanks for the link 😊 That's my overall plan. I just have a few worms that hatched on the plant that I was going to let grow out. I wasn't sure if their offspring would be safe or not. It may be a better idea to just cull them then.
Exactly, so I'm wondering if I raise a set of hornworms on tomato plants through pupation and into adult moths...will the hornworms they produce be safe for reptiles? The eggs they lay will be collected before they hatch. Does that make sense?
I'm trying to figure out if the hornworm produced by hawkmoths, that are raised on tomatoes, are toxic for reptiles.
The hornworms themselves won't eat tomatoes, just the parents during their life cycle. Asking because they grow so much faster on their natural diet. Plus, I have a few eggs...
