Wow! She’s got a lot of orange...very pretty and unique!
I have the bark on my branches and didn’t bake them. I washed with Dawn, rinsed well and dried in the sun for a couple of days.
Its just a suggestion, im super paranoid about mold and w.e. too since im not bioactive. still get a good amount of gnats or mites but im about to change things up, go live and get some pitcher plants to help combat the issue.
Yes, I’m fighting the never-ending battle of soil gnats, but fortunately haven’t had any mites...just stupid little ghost ants (May they Rest In Peace). I like the look of the lichen on the branches...looks more authentic to me.
Thank you she really is pretty I think she is around 5 months or at least she looks it to me I did wash the branches and let them soak in boiling hot water for a couple hours in the tub their good ?
Has she gone thru a receptive period yet? It’s when they show all of their pretty colors and get really restless? That comes before being gravid and at least with my ladies, is impossible not to notice. I’d just get the lay bin prepared and put it in/leave it in her enclosure.
The lichen isnt dangerous? I do like that look too i had just always assumed that was a form of mold so i tossed my branches that had it ?
Not that I noticed but I will prepare one soon ?
I guess it is a form of fungal growth but I’ve always considered it a plant. I can’t find much information if it’s dangerous, other than it depends on the species of lichen.
I’ve seen my girl with that type of color pattern when she’s just chillin but I’m really unsure. Mine is just shy of 6 months but she started looking blotchy like that around 4.
Is it maybe something to do with the juvenile growth process also what do u mean by blotchy
Like trying to find their own colors
It might be, blotchy (Green patches) is just how I see it when I look at that specific pattern. It’s hard to explain lol?
Ohh
