    Thrips and maybe fungus gnats

    every spring I have an ootheca in every enclosure 👍 the survivors that my chams dont eat make it to round 2 in my planters outside. I love mantids almost as much as chameleons so it warms my heart to see one reach maturity and hanging out in my garden. I name them Rambo cause they've cleared...

    Fungus gnat problem? Wanted to share this

    I had concern over the bio activity as well. I can imagine the eggs would be recycled fairly quickly not to mention ants in my outdoor enclosures I doubt they would stand a chance of surviving a 9 month incubation. I'll look for more studies on how the eggs cope with bioactivity in the wild ...

    Her enclosure is about 18 inches deep and 15x15 wide she digs elaborate tunnel's until she finds the perfect spot. The soil is kept moist via misting but is well aerated and ventilated as the sides are mesh. I feel like I can trust her judgment lol

    I think my next cham is going to be a live barer, incubation periods are too long. I wonder if I just left the eggs in the bottom of her enclosure if they would develop properly and hatch, has anyone here ever had that happen? On accident or by design?
