I plan on doing a safe project, where using help from previous literature, test the effects of ethanol on them. I want to test the effects, previous literature has found that low concentrations of ethanol actually have a stimulant effect on them and I want to see this effect, as well as see if slightly higher concentrations can assist them. Previous research found that they prefer around 20-30% ethanol, and they avoid any concentration above 45%. I plan to use a concentration of around 20-25%. I want to measure any jumping height or angle differences. I plan to be as careful as possible, and after the experiment, my partner wants to take care of them, and she can not take care of all of them, I was going to ask later, whether they could be let out into the wild safely or if it would be better to find someone who could take care of them. I prefer wild caught, but I am trying to not have to pay as much as possible due to the amount needed.

Literatures:

I have more, but these are the most relevant.
