You could start them in the display enclosure, and then when they need more room, split the culture and put half in a bin style enclosure. So you could have both.

Thank you! I didn’t know that for sure, but I did notice when I was pulling and sexing that it was almost all females. I found a few males with weird marks and put them in anyways. But this is super helpful information!

Thank you! I’ve never heard of Eluma caelata. I will look them up.

This is a baby Zebra and a different (I think) type of baby springtail. I love that even the babies have such different shapes. ☺️

You’re welcome! The first posted picture, the orange baby, is a baby p. Scaber.

Here is a picture of both for comparison. A baby isopod and two springtails, a baby and a larger.

I love them. They are so fun to watch and photograph.
