i dont mind if you or anyone else asks about them but my mate was so annoying and kept bugging me about them saying you do want to buy some every time i saw him it just annoyed me in the end and he doesnt even ask after the 2 i got for you or it could be that hes forgotten about them=D =D hopefully hes forgotten about them

john

Hey John,...

i didn't expect them to be any bigger,...
how old are they now?
and how long is it gonna take before they grow adult size?
and how many of those little crickets do you give them a week?
and at what temperature/humidity do you keep them now?


i know i know,... many questions in one reply but i want to be sure i can bring those to adulthood

very nice picture by the way,.. :}

cheers
Steven

Steven
i think they are about 5 months old:?
as for how long they take to reach adults i've no idea sorry
as for feeding them i feed them about 3 small crickets a week
and the temperature is around 80f as for the humidity i just spray one end of the enclosure every 4-5 days

I'm raising some little ones now and I'm beginning to think they grow very slowly. I think they molt in the winter while sealed in a burrow. So far, one molt a year....resulting in slow growth!
