After finding my 4" female B. Emila stilting (in pre-molt) in her water dish (ceramic 2.5" in diameter with .20-.25 inches of water in it) so that she was over the water but her feet were all mostly touching dry spots, I began to wonder if it meant she was too cold, hot dehydrated or what. Doing a search yielded very disordered information saying it could be anything from too hot or cold to nematodes. I figured it would be interesting to try and get some other accounts of stilting to see if there is a trend. Below is my most recent expirience:
Specimine:
b. Emila 4" female premolt
Ground temp:
78 deg f
(the water bowl is warmed and was at 80)
Air temp:
70 deg f
humidity( from a cheap hygrometer)
70-75
Substrate:
Dry eco earth coconut fiber
Notes:
She was standing on the edges of the water dish.
Thanks!
