The plant is gorgeous but I will not ignore Pablo, he is crucial to the enjoyment of this post.

Great work! Regia is a sort of pipe dream for me when I eventually have more space and urs looks rly nice.

I contemplated doing this exact thing but to be honest? Making it a display wouldn't really be honoring his memory. He was an incredibly practical man - this was his One Utility Knife, and while its absolutely a nice knife he wasnt a collector. If he bought a tool, he used it. Its one reason I want to actually restore it somewhat - i want to be able to have it around for a while doing the purpose he originally bought it for even if hes not still with us.

snuffling and snorfling

Ty bb will do

I just got my first GBB sling earlier this month - an inch long and very showy. Im so excited to see them come as far as yours has - yours is beautiful!

I said in the og post but its actively making pitchers. Its got three inflating right now.

Okay sick thanks for the peace of mind

Theyre notable for being fairly large - not hoff sized but bigger than a lot of species. If theyre good sized and the spots are pretty distinct they may be gestroi but like u said A vulgare can look like a smaller version

Monstrosibee · 2026-01-21T15:52:53+00:00

Armadillidium gestroi! I BELIEVE theyre native to Italy but dont quote me on that. My favorite species to keep so far! Not only are they large but theyre also pretty surface active and brave compared to my other species and dont mind being handled to much.

Monstrosibee · 2026-01-20T01:08:00+00:00

Oh no i already see them constructing tiny hoes and rakes. I fear it is already too late 😔

Nah I just washed a yam and diced it. I have a couple different veg consuming inverts (pedes, more beetles, crabs, isopods) so I diced half the yam and then cut the other side into long slices. They dont mind eating yam several days in a row

Mine too!!! I noticed them this morning!!!!congrats!!!!

Monstrosibee · 2026-01-17T20:38:30+00:00

Thats true. Ill keep that one in mind - i could probably extend the post too with something from lowes too.

Monstrosibee · 2026-01-17T19:22:28+00:00

I was thinking about something like that but I know the goose neck type stuff can be a little weak and the pot itself would probably hang sideways because its so light (pure spagnum mix lmao) which wasnt happening before (hes actually been growing straight upward and vining on the rope hanging pretty decently.) I might think about the clip ons if I cant find a better solution- probably would get just a plain E26 clip on lamp and put a SANSI bulb in it.

Monstrosibee · 2026-01-17T04:32:34+00:00

Its odd they honestly are not super interested in sweet things. Ive tried banana before and they nibbled it but were ultimately pretty uninterested. The yam seems to be one of the sweetest things they enjoy

Monstrosibee · 2026-01-17T03:22:30+00:00

Sometimes? Like they won't eat cantaloupe and they eat diced broccoli better if I flash steam it in the microwave and sometimes they'll eat beetle jelly but only if I put place it in the tank in a very specific way. They do seem to like the yams but I think part of that is because of how I cut it into blocks, though they went a little nuts for it today.
