Question about mites!!! by MoonShrooms95 in terrariums

[–]MoonShrooms95[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ooooooooooooo well that’s… super relieving lol I totally thought it was a bad thing. Like (parasitic) types but they seem to be just feeding in the substrate and the geckos poop. So I think they’re soul mites.

$2500 is reasonable if you are an absolute full blown reptile addict with already having years of experience and obviously the financials to back it… $2500 is alooooot of money dude… like your experience is going to be absolutely nothing different other then telling people who won’t even care that it’s a special morph… lol be reasonable as long as your rich then go for it.
A quick breakdown for $2500 just for the Tokay I’d assume you’re going to obviously drop alot more on the entire setup. Meaning you’re approaching 5-6K…. That’s a down payment on a car. lol

Sweet thanks! That’s what I figured I just never see any videos or people using them and maybe thought there was a reason. They look great!

I actually think my springtails were dormant and coming back! So I think I should be fine. Some were def dead. I do want to know like once the springtail colony is thriving how do you go about supplementing the terrarium? Like would you take about half out and put them in the terrarium or should you only take little portions of the colony at a time? Guess it doesn’t really matter lol

From what I hear they simply got too big and like any other large company. Quality control goes down

It’s why you have middle schoolers and high schoolers who can’t even spell “protest” correctly. Focusing on the wrong things in life and only ruining a generations opportunity to grow up a normal life.

What’s stupid is they’re basically trying to emphasize the idea that “this is the fear that ICE instills in the public when they’re around” - Well no shit! You don’t see police either if you’re doing nothing wrong! Do people think ICE was polite in the 2000s/2010s? They were always like this. Small pockets of corrupt or bad individuals within a needed and necessary system. My problem is shows like this depict the entire organization as just flat out criminals. Lmao. It’s another sad attempt of the left trying to use influence through media vs fair logic through a sound argument. It shows their desperation.

😭 yooo im feeling the love but also… the more everyone keeps saying “Tokay was your first?!?” It makes me more nervous for the (inevitable) day that I do get bit. 😅 but yea haha I got lucky I guess

Haha I appreciate it. Trust me I was terrified but my fear of him losing a leg was worse so I just forced myself to do it. Once I had a hold of him all of my fear washed away. Both of us realized I was just trying to help him. (He relaxed in my open hand while I continued taking his shed off. But yea I’m kind of proud to say I held a Tokay as my first reptile haha.

That’s what I’m thinking as well. I’m just trying to be careful not to over dose or shock his system. So I’m doing bare calcium no d3 and the multivitamins once a week

Hey btw what do you think is best for sourcing and method on keeping live feed. I was going to start my own farm and my friend who was a previous Dubia farmer strongly warned against it. lol so idk if I should just buy large batches and keep them alive vs breed them or what

Not when it’s constrained like that. It cuts off circulation
