    What am I doing wrong?

    just curious off the top.. did you provide a Laying bin on the females?? The male, heck was a concern before...the cat situation is a curve ball.. but as all females dead at the bottom of a cage.. Laying bin comes to mind!

    What am I doing wrong?

    Uvb lighting

    best option.. using t5 More energy efficient.. 5.0 or perhaps 10 depending on distance.. but a DUAL fixture.. is better, so one can add a 6500 plant bulb too.. the bulb issues have not been a problem of late.. but a linear offers more area of coverage.. compacts may be fine, but really...
