Found in Buton, Indonesia.
Looks like a common gliding lizard to me but I've never seen one with red wings!
Beautiful specimen for sure.
Its important to consider overfeeding here.
Powerfeeding slings until they get to the juvenile stage is generally accepted since once the spider reaches that point in its liftetime its usually a much sturdier, strong and resistant animal.
Powerfeeding afterwards shortens your animals lifespan...
Just my 2 cents:
I live in NYC. In an appartment. Theres rats and roaches in the street of course.
I too was paranoid of having roaches in my appartment, luckily weve never seen a single roach in our house BUT we have seen them around the appartment.
My set up cost me $1. I went to the...
Im pretty sure this is how part of it works.
Then theres the whole dominant co-dominant and the other kind of gene. Which is how you get hypo, trans, etc.
Im sure a beardie or leo breeder could tell you what theyre all about.
All I really know is that Beardie's mutations have been...
Yes a pic would be awesome.
I got several strainers at the dollar store cause that was also my first idea but the roaches clump up together so shaking the strainer doesnt really uhhh strain much frass from the enclosure.
I do what gvfarns does, except instead of freezign them i set them on...
as previously mentioned savs and niles get huge.
unless you have the $(when theyre adults their food can get expensive) and their housing requirements are quite big.
if you think you can handle the feeding, the epic cage requirements and the fact that you are keeping a lizard that wouldnt...
when I switched to dubias i started tong feeding them to make sure they didnt burrow or anything.
its bad ass hehehe.
another pro is that i left for 2 months to visit my parents during the summer. i had a friend water my animals once a week but she would absolutely not touch either the spiders...
why not just go with dubias?
theyre so much easier to keep and feed it seems, only prob being is that they burrow but I literally have a tupperware thats semi-opened full of them and not a single one has every escaped.
I just got a bunch of dubia roaches.
I want to start a colony so I want to feed off some of the male nymphs and give the females time to mature and reproduce.
I know that when they mature the males have wings and the females have stubs but when theyre nymphs all of mine seem to have stubs?
I think sugar gliders require huge cage requirements.
I was thinking a beardie but they take a lot of space and need a lot of attention AND its a reptile.
A pet mammal or bird wont fit your requirements unless theyre dead.
Reptiles on the other hand...
For a 10-15 gal. Id recommend a corn snake or a leopard gecko although im not sure what the enclosure reqs. are for those critters. I could be waaay off.
A communal project done with no research.
Those slings were doomed from the start.
Hope you had fun. Please be more educated before you start another project.
Roaches do have more nutritional value, theyre thicker so more "meat".
Def. easier to colonize. Just need food, water crystals and a dark humid place, wait 2 months and youll have thousands (depending on your starting amount ofc).
Cricket injuries: YES.
Theyre vicious when theyre hungry. I...
