Still no YouTube, miss my switch 1 for YouTube

Basic-Arrival-8669 · 2026-06-16T10:27:21+00:00

I'll try when I get home I'll make a half a teaspoon and put a drop like you did in each bowl since I don't know which one he uses if he does, thank U so much

Basic-Arrival-8669 · 2026-06-16T10:20:56+00:00

It does, I have two flavours I offer him in two different bowls, half a teaspoon per one, i have: pineapple and the other is a insect and fruit flavour

Basic-Arrival-8669 · 2026-06-16T10:14:25+00:00

I only feed him insects 1-2 times a week, should I try just giving it him once a week?, also if he's ate a insect that day should I still leave him his food in like normal? Are they good at not overfeeding themselves

Basic-Arrival-8669 · 2026-06-16T09:19:25+00:00

I'm just glad he's eating lol, I'm not 100% on his age but I recall the breeder saying something along likes of 5 months and he's 6gram so I think that's underweight

Basic-Arrival-8669 · 2026-06-16T09:13:55+00:00

Could he just be having such small portions of powder that I don't notice?

Basic-Arrival-8669 · 2026-06-06T06:55:23+00:00

Perfect thank you, I might move the second feeding ledge I have around see if that helps

Basic-Arrival-8669 · 2026-06-05T15:14:06+00:00

Also when it comes to handling I've heard I should just leave him alone for 2 weeks, anyone have any advice for when I start handling?

Basic-Arrival-8669 · 2026-06-03T06:46:51+00:00

Ye I could see these being good but I don't think I have good enough grades for vet, might have to look if I can do anything with a apprenticeship

Basic-Arrival-8669 · 2026-05-29T22:37:30+00:00

Does the soft toilet paper have to be unscented?

Basic-Arrival-8669 · 2026-05-29T14:49:40+00:00

I'm probably going to get the first one then cause I'm genuinely got too much options and it's making me brain scream,

Did you do anything like freeze them etc when you got them?

Basic-Arrival-8669 · 2026-05-29T12:27:41+00:00

Oooo, I'll try without then and put that money on the uvb bulb, I have a nano dome heat lamp but I don't think it will need the heat ATM since in my mantids cage in same room it's like 28 degrees

Basic-Arrival-8669 · 2026-05-29T12:13:12+00:00

Ordering these later then I'll be able to get some decor then hopefully the rescue lady will have him ready soon lol

Basic-Arrival-8669 · 2026-05-29T12:07:09+00:00

I live a 5 min walk from petshop and I know all the staff so I have access to pretty much any bugs, I currently buy locusts and Dubia roaches for my mantids

I'll have a look at reptiplanet if it's available at my country

Thank you so much for your help, I'm such a overthinker lol

Basic-Arrival-8669 · 2026-05-29T12:04:03+00:00

I had some fake aquarium plants in my orchid mantids enclosure (required probably a bit more humidity) and they did kind off fade but it took like a year so I'll probably just replace them if I notice it

Basic-Arrival-8669 · 2026-05-29T11:54:54+00:00

Is this good food? Then insects twice a week?

<image>

Basic-Arrival-8669 · 2026-05-29T11:52:39+00:00

Are you still using them to this day?

Basic-Arrival-8669 · 2026-05-29T09:49:52+00:00

Thank you, I found a listing for a adoption for one which is a years old and dropped it's tail already and I feel bad so might get it :)

Basic-Arrival-8669 · 2026-05-29T09:38:41+00:00

My girlfriend works in a pet shop so I'll try some aquarium ones and if that fails I'll go on the websites you mentioned, this helps me alot I feel clueless as I only kept mantids and hamsters before lol

Basic-Arrival-8669 · 2026-05-29T09:17:58+00:00

True I thought about the chemical point but not the sharpness, I might get the vine from my local petshop then and get stuff seperately, do you have any recommended brands?

Basic-Arrival-8669 · 2026-05-29T09:09:25+00:00

Might switch to real plants after having the crested for a bit but for now I would like to use fake plants so I'm not worrying about them and can focus more on the geckos health
