After looking into it a bit I am now convinced that there is no optimum light. Each situation and even each bulb varies. One needs a UV meter to actually know which would be "optimum" Duke

Does anyone know if roaches can see the color red? I know that ants can not, but don't know the deal with roaches. My blaberus hybrids have a heater under their tank, and a lamp. I switched it out for a red bulb just in case, and they are definitely coming out more. What I am trying to...

I believe it is a beetle larva

Mites are arachnids so the antenna part does not sound like a mite.

Or, stop hitting the bottle yourself.

Thanks, and yes, it would SEEM that the gelatin would PROBABLY work fine. The original question was "what does everyone think about the possibility of using gelatin" and it seemed that the group was somewhat opposed to it but I could not figure out why. That is why I was asking. Duke

So why would the gelatin not be good to feed roaches? I see that the agar would be fine, but why not the gelatin? What would be problematic about it. Duke

I ordered some blaberus hybrids a couple of months ago. They are not reproducing very quickly right now, but I am hoping that will increase when warmer weather comes. I have a heater underneath the tank and a light too. The young ones matured and I do have quite a few pinheads that are new...

I'm wondering if it is actually some other type of lizard? Duke

Hmmmmm..... middle being 30 mg/kg would be the same as .03mg/gram. Your Cham weighs...??? 200 grams???? If so, that would be a 6mg dose needed which would be 0.12 ml of your solution, or for round numbers about 1/10th of a ml. Someone needs to second this or you need to check my math and...

This picture shows the 1st, 2nd, 3rd.....8th time I tried to introduce Tiki to Raj. Each lasting about 1 minute. I assure you that this is not her normal coloring. Now I know that this is a different species and may only be somewhat related, but one day it was suddenly not a problem. No...

maybe just trying for a little more height for comfort.

Two words for you my friend......blaberus hybrids

OK, for Veileds....about 30 days from mating to laying?? Duke

I have a female V that is still eating like a horse, a male V that is hardly eating (been that way for about a month) and a Jackson that is eating little and going to sleep very early. Go figure?

I offer bits of fruit to mine about once a week and they sure seem to love it.

She laid a while ago. Not too long though, Dec.

OK, for what seems like months now I have been taking my male Veiled and putting him in the female's cage, only to have her turn black with turquoise spots and proceed to attack him and chase him off. Poor Raj! This is also bringing up some bad college memories. About how long after she...

I wonder, if you were to only offer crickets or silkies, etc for a while, he just might start taking them. If you are offerring a mix then it would seem logical for him to pick out his favorite and leave the rest alone. Duke
