terrarium camera

[Jeeb]

Hey everyone,

I have a question. Is anyone using a monitoring camera on their T's enclosure? I am toying with the thought of setting up a camera to monitor my G. rosea just to see what her behavior is at night or while I'm at work. I know she's more of a pet rock and there probably won't be much to see lol, but it's just a thought that crossed my mind.

Also, I think that she is about ready to molt soon (color has darkened, lack of interest in food. Last molt was recorded last December by the previous owner). So I wouldn't mind recording the molt in action.

I do want to be careful and not add something to the enclosure that could stress her out.

Is anyone using any form of camera/ monitoring device? and do you have any recommendations on what to use?

Thanks!

Hi there Jeeb. Im not 100% sure how the camera thing works but i know you can connect your camera to a phone with a bluetooth device similar to cat cams. Im not sure if this will help but good luck!

I was planning on installing a wireless camera when I'm gonna cohabit my S. calceatum soon
night vision, motion detection and using my pc to record. could be an interesting experiment

Those GoPro cameras seem pretty cool. Ive seen some cool vids from them and they're waterproof/shockproof i believe. I'm not into cameras at all so they might be a terrible suggestion for specifically what you're trying to do, check them out tho, its an idea

I was gonna keep them together for a few days to mate them. as I can't keep my eye on them the entire time I thought the camera would be a good solution to check if any matings have taken place if I were to suddenly find him munched.

I was actually thinking about attaching a GoPro to one of my webber's terrariums to see them make their webs. The H. sp. Colombia Large looks like an orchestra conductor when it's busy webbing; it would be great to see it web a nice section.
