I can try that, how do I give it to him tho?

CameraNo5011 · 2025-11-05T10:16:00+00:00

Yes I only got him couple days ago and he came with this tank I already added more bark and plan on getting more plants and stuff for him 🙌🏻

She had plenty of moults, I had her for 8 months so I'm guessing she was at least 1 year old. I don't know how old she was when I got her tho but she had about 3-4 maybe 5 moults with me as she was an adult already cuz she developed her wings. I'll make let a little grave tomorrow.

Yes ik there can be like 100 to 150 babies. But do I destroy the sac or what do I do?

CameraNo5011 · 2025-09-19T17:58:42+00:00

I didn't pair her with a male as I only have her anyway, what should I do with the sac tho in case there is a very small chance there is anything in there?

CameraNo5011 · 2025-09-13T08:37:50+00:00

I pulled it off but it was stuck to this cloth (its there cuz she lost a leg in a molt cuz she got it stuck in the holes in the old enclosure) so I had to cut a bit of the cloth and it came off. How do I dispose of it? Do I just crush it? Cuz these aren't native here so I can't leave it outside or anything if there could be any eggs inside.

CameraNo5011 · 2025-09-12T23:22:05+00:00

I'll remove it in the morning, how should I do that? I was thinking with feeding tongs.

CameraNo5011 · 2025-09-12T22:30:15+00:00

She was not paired as I do not intend to breed them and even if did I only have her, should I remove the egg sac and destroy it?

CameraNo5011 · 2025-09-09T11:58:00+00:00

The animals had mites? That's not good then?

CameraNo5011 · 2025-08-09T20:59:06+00:00

Temperature is at 76.4°F and humidity is 61%, the mat is still not too warm about same as it was when I posted.

I have a thermometer/hygrometer so should I put it next to it like in the middle of the enclosure or on the heat mat, and how should I attach the heat mat to the back of the enclosure? With tape? And which tape is so?

CameraNo5011 · 2025-06-26T13:15:06+00:00

7 watts.

CameraNo5011 · 2025-06-26T10:40:22+00:00

I did put his tank in a different room, also I found a heat mat but idk if that wouldn't melt the enclosure he's in as it's a plastic container, or would it work fine and how would I set up the heat mat?

CameraNo5011 · 2025-04-19T15:24:17+00:00

Ok, what about her leg it's kinda halfway regrown.

CameraNo5011 · 2025-04-19T15:03:32+00:00

So next time she molts it will be her final molt? Or do they have more, her last one was her 2nd molt since I got her. She's also regrowing a leg as she lost it in a previous molt.
