I use scissors to cut the ovipositors off at the base.I just dont wwnt a cricket laying egg inside my enclosure...before i leave a live cricket inside my lividum enclosure and end up next morning my tank is full of tiny like ant cricket
Can this prevent them from.laying egg?I use scissors to cut the ovipositors off at the base.
Ever since I've been doing it, I've yet to see cricket nymphs in my enclosure's.Can this prevent them from.laying egg?
Some friend, not giving you the low down on feeding.Ok i just got an adult salmon pink birdeater from.my friend...i plan to feed her adult cricket...but how many do i have to feed her and how many times guys? Do i have to crush the head before feed?
Simply not possible. That means you had eggs previously laid.I just dont wwnt a cricket laying egg inside my enclosure...before i leave a live cricket inside my lividum enclosure and end up next morning my tank is full of tiny like ant cricket
So i have to let it eat one by one?L.parahybana only stops feeding when near a molt or right after one. Drop a cricket next to it, if it is true to its genus it will catch the cricket in no time, and you can give another.
This is a good and logic answer..thx...Ever since I've been doing it, I've yet to see cricket nymphs in my enclosure's.

That is not necessary , but I always start with one to check if mine's hungry. It's easier to get one cricket out than threepost: 2499663, member: 115382"]So i have to let it eat one by one?
Lol, I've never done that and I have yet to see baby crickets popping up in 15 years...lmfao, worrying about crickets "hatching" in the enclosure makes me chuckle a little. Even if crickets would be born, they'd just quickly die unless you were feeding them.Ever since I've been doing it, I've yet to see cricket nymphs in my enclosure's.
Its not that I'm necessarily "worried", more that just as gnats I find them a nuisance in the enclosure's of specimen's that require moist substrate.Lol, I've never done that and I have yet to see baby crickets popping up in 15 years...lmfao, worrying about crickets "hatching" in the enclosure makes me chuckle a little.

What do gnats have to do with mutilating female crickets?Its not that I'm necessarily "worried", more that just as gnats I find them a nuisance in the enclosure's of specimen's that require moist substrate.
