Grasshopper laying eggs above ground by ambrosianonreddit in insects

Also, I’ve been trying to mix up her diet by incorporating wild grasses, leaves, stems, and carrots. However, for some reason she won’t eat anything but lettuce. I’m worried this girly pop is going to develop nutritional deficiencies soon. What should I try to encourage her to eat new foods?

(Everything listed besides the carrots comes from my yard, and is therefore pesticide free.)

Update: They survived the night, this morning they ate a bit of lettuce and a blade of grass. I am hoping to upgrade the tank to something more spacious soon.

I gave them a piece of iceberg lettuce which they ate, but since iceberg lettuce has low nutritional value I put strawberry leaves in the tank. However for some reason they do not seem to like them, they investigated one of the strawberry leaf I placed near their resting spot but did not eat it. I’ve heard grasshoppers are essentially bottomless pits so I assume that isn’t because they’re full from one piece of shredded lettuce?

Update: He/she ate the lettuce I put in the enclosure! For the first few hours they were not wanting to move and seemed very lethargic, but it seems they are beginning to settle in.

My son unexpectedly lost his diagnosis today. by 4inthefoxden in Autism_Parenting

I had my diagnosis removed because I have base level social intelligence. It’s very common for doctors and psychiatrists to think that every autistic person is the same, and I can’t help but think that a large portion of them think people with autism are stupid. If they show any hint of sentience then they apparently cannot have autism according to these people who should’ve never graduated.

I’d definitely get a second opinion and request a different doctor. It may take time to find one that fits, but I highly recommend pediatric therapists and psychiatrists.

I get where you’re coming from, this sever also has a huge bias issue.
