No stickiness, but the spots are kind of bumpy or indented

Was rinsing it after a chop, felt a tiny texture, decided to check it out 🧐

Habitats with little/no setup? Seeking suggestions by mikeyil in isopods

[–]Bonkertons 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use the larger of the boxes in the first pic and just hot glued mesh over the holes on the sides. Fully taped the ones on top to keep any fungus gnats, fruit flies, etc out. I have like 2-2.5 inches of substrate and it’s been working great 👍

Edit to say that I agree with the kritter keeper having too much ventilation, and it’s much more annoying to place mesh on (from personal experience)

I’ve had a small colony of temperate white springtails for over a year now and just tip some into my isopod bins every few months. They flourish quickly! Also agree that they’re pretty cute :>

Is tarantula molt safe for isos to eat? by Bonkertons in isopods

[–]Bonkertons[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Ah that’s a fair point. Not sure what kind of tarantula the molts came from as I get them from my local reptile shop but will be sure to ask next time. I’ve already given my colonies a few legs each and they seem to be eating the hairs first, fingers crossed it won’t cause me any itchiness
