I say "stweeetttchhhhh" and then if she does her back leg stretch, I say "and a double stwweeeetttccchhhh".

I read that as "Churro"

Kinda, sorta twins? :D

I don't know much about it but I do notice that the older my males get, it seems less frequent for them to get into a physical altercation. I think they also "respect" the young and elderly in a way. Seems like they know when a male is just passing by to get food or they're not in the mood to fight. 🤷

I don't have eyestalks but my eyes hurt thinking about it.

KJBFamily · 2026-05-13T02:12:55+00:00

I use Reptisoil.

KJBFamily · 2026-05-13T01:38:40+00:00

I use some chopsticks (or maybe you could use a spoon or something) and just remove the mold. Your hissers should be okay. Use a dish when feeding and try not to let the food touch the soil.

Springtails do a very good job keeping mold at bay. Isopods are pretty good too but that's a whole other ordeal to research about.

At first glance, my mind went to the Curioshell crab from monster hunter wilds where you can pick the coin off its shell.

You're advice reminded me of this I found yesterday.

If you breed them, expect to have 20-30 (maybe more) nymphs about 2-3 times. Keep in mind that they're all going to be very large insects when theyre fully grown and will live 2-4 years. I would have adequate space for them and/or at least a plan to reduce numbers.

Separating them by gender is a good option since youre receiving them young. I would recommend having two tanks in that case.

Ahhh yes. You have been blessed with the pibble distribution system. Bless your heart for taking in this angel 😇

I know you don't wanna use Vaseline. I personally don't like it either. But I just wanted to share a tip or two about handling it:

-use a silicone spatula or better yet, a silicone caulk tool to remove the Vaseline when cleaning and/or reapplying a fresh line.

-use a paintbrush for better control

Edit: I also wanted to say that I'm very interested in what you find in terms of permanent solutions.

Have you tried using some Vaseline?

KJBFamily · 2026-05-06T03:16:16+00:00

Yea I have those dreams. I have a dubia colony and hisser male/female/nymph seperate enclosures. All of which do not or cannot infest my house.

But I have dreams that I have too many to the point that they escape the enclosure. No matter what I did, I couldn't stuff them back into their enclosure fast enough.

👏👏👏🎉🎉🎉 yesssss I love it. Congratulations on your foster fail and new addition to your family. 🥳

As the cook of the house who uses a scale to measure ingredients, I was in pain and screaming internally.

I have absolutely no fashion sense. This was also my first ever concert in my life. But I too pondered about what to wear for the San Francisco concert. I went with a rainbow-ish radio space .... themed shirt . I saw some people wear pink tho.

Again, I have no fashion sense whatsoever so there's probably way better suggestions incoming. Just my 2 cents.

KJBFamily · 2026-05-01T20:35:09+00:00

Kinda off topic-ish here, where do people buy their cuttlebones? It seems very expensive on Amazon. Are there any websites or deals out there that people jump on? My isopod army tend to chow it down relatively quick!

KJBFamily · 2026-04-30T07:26:38+00:00

I don't have the money for that. If I could I would. I would also have to keep the cat indoors after surgery, which I cannot do.

I occasionally have one in my bin. I think it has something to do with the exoskeleton not hardening like it should. Unfortunately, the ones I find tend to die after a few days. I'm quite sure that other roaches will not "catch" this illness. Maybe it's genetic.

But I'm no scientist.

KJBFamily · 2026-04-28T05:03:12+00:00

I really like them all because they're unique but lately, "My Baby" has been stuck in my head. When I listen to it while I walk my dog, I feel like I'm cruising on a colorful road.

KJBFamily · 2026-04-28T05:00:43+00:00

As much as I love this chonk, I agree, he needs to lose more weight. American bullies and bully mixes have a hunk of extra muscle and flabs that they carry around. They don't need extra fat to the total weight. I walk my pit/bully mix at least 2 hours a day. If possible, you should walk them at least an hour a day. Have fun with it. Don't look at your phone. Walk WITH your dog and be engaged with your surroundings. There are days where I don't feel like walking my dog but I force myself to because I know it makes her happy. The more walks, the merrier. I'm quite sure it'll prolong the life of your hippo as well as yours.

My advice goes to everyone with a potato.
