He looks so good! Amazing job with him.

Thanks I’m not going risk it but I am going to separate out the babies into their own enclosure and raise them to adults and try again.

Yeah, that’s what I’ve read so I guess I won’t risk it. I used to be really good about looking for eggs but never found any so gave up. Thanks for the info.

Hi, so, I've basically given up on my snails breeding; they eat and make a huge mess, but no babies so I've just accepted that I have pet snails now. I've put them in a terrarium with plants (that I know they don't like to eat), corkbark, moss, and dead leaves on a coconut coir substrate, a...

I had this happen twice with my cham (his tongue stuck briefly to my hand while hand-feeding silkworms), while he had an RI and was on medication for a whole month. I figured it either had something to do with the medication or humidity. My vet had me back off on the overnight fogging, so I...

I have a mantid, but he's a pet, not a feeder. Agree with others, too much work to separate and feed separately. Also, they are awesome. Friends, not food! (just kidding! but they are super awesome and cool)

What a beautiful bird, wow!

Great picture! He’s very cool looking!

I second Todd at LYR, they come very well packaged!

Thank you! We’re enjoying having her very much and hopefully she’s enjoying her new enclosure. I wish they were local here like they are for you, I’m jealous!

lol! True!

Yeah, breaks my heart that they are used as feeders. I also have a little brown anole. She’s a shy little thing in a bio active vivarium all by herself. I’ve been looking to get her a friend but haven’t found another brown anole locally yet.

Right?! I treat all living creatures in my care with love, even my insects.

My hoppers didn’t go for the grasses I tried, I think they were a rye and barley mix. But then I had Romaine in there at same time so maybe they just prefer the store greens? I have regular grass in with the babies now (found some still alive in green belt nearby that I dug up and planted in pot...

I googled your anole type to see what they looked like since I’ve never seen one; so cute! Love your story (and had no idea some eat veggies!) very cool. I was in Honduras a few years ago on vacation and we had a little local anole who apparently lived on our deck. He was completely annoyed by...

Just wanted to share a couple pics of my new green anole, Yaddle. My local reptile shop sells them as snake food and when I told them I wanted to get one as a pet they told me not to bother, that they make terrible pets, that they require UVB and heat, and that you can’t hold them. Good advice...

Love them!

Thanks!

aaawwwwwwww, congrats!!!!

Whoops, sorry, I just realized I never responded. About 35 nymphs hatched without diapause. They're getting big now and definitely looking like Melanoplus sp. like you said. I also thought they were supposed to diapause. I had put a bunch of eggs in the fridge as well, and pulled the first lot...
