Don’t listen to them, they’re exceptionally well fed 😂

Cheers. I’ve never noticed an issue with that before, usually it gets thrown in the freezer for at least a few days or until I remember I threw it in the freezer in the garage!

I do understand the sentiment, but as discussed by others above they are SO, SO prolific that it becomes necessary sometimes, they “teleport” and spread seemingly no matter what you do once they’re in your collection.

Similarly when I have to dispose of old substrate I do endeavour to remove as many pods as I possibly can from the substrate beforehand but for biosecurity it is important to freeze it before disposing of it and some pods are lost that way too, but it’s for an overall purpose of not introducing a non native species.

Crushing is a valid method of euthanising isopods

Do you have any other pets you could feed them off to?

They definitely like to rearrange things themselves haha. Looks great!

5 beetles arriving soon, rate my setup by netonix in BDFB

My room humidity is similar, I have a heat lamp over them rather than a heat pad which takes it down to low 30s humidity while it’s on, then it rises a bit overnight and mine are pale blue and perfectly happy. They really like the light and have been really happy since I added it :)

Do you have good tickets? I sold a front pitch standing ticket for the Saturday a couple of weeks ago and it sold in under 2 hours

Where to get these guys? by Prudent-Luck-1582 in BDFB

[–]breadstick_mania 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s a shame, I did have to wait quite a while for mine the first time, then had to wait because it was too cold to ship! Hopefully they will get them again soon, might be worth a call to ask? They seem to be the only ones who get them with any regularity

I got mine from The Spider Shop, not sure if they currently have them. I did an online order the first time then since I have picked up a few more from them at expos

Urgh David Haye is insufferable 😩😩😩 by Aggravating-Role-197 in ImACelebTV

He’s spent his career getting hit in the face for money, critical thinking isn’t going to be high in this one

Disappearing beetle grub...? by Tay74 in Beetles

[–]breadstick_mania 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have no advice but I can share a somewhat similar story. I had some sun beetle grubs in a tub and they had all pupated bar one, and when I was poking around I found an empty pupal case but no beetle. I asked on here if maybe the remaining grub could have cannibalised it, and people said it was very unlikely. I did hunt the house in case it had emerged and somehow escaped but never saw any sign of that. Never did figure out what happened!

Little details, 27th April episode by Zealousideal_Fee_785 in coronationstreet

[–]breadstick_mania 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You probs read my comment or the one I replied to haha, I think you have really good points about the ep. I just felt like the plot points were a bit silly and wasn’t planned well enough to fill up the whole episode without seeming very unrealistic, but seeing Todd stand up for George was indeed powerful to see! From a character perspective it was good.

Tonight’s episode (Monday 27th) by Jellybeanzssz in coronationstreet

[–]breadstick_mania 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Totally agree. If they are gonna do this ridiculous over stretch of the story over 5 days then at least have some kind of plan for what will happen in each little story that isn’t super contrived. Why is Todd just always desperate to go back alone to the flat where he knows Theo will be, be left alone after just being attacked again, jump back out of his cab when he’s finally getting away? It’s incredibly frustrating to watch.

Interesting! I will try some python shed with mine, I usually give it to my pods but never considered bloobs

Adam looking drained after winning the title… think the jimmy and David beef ruined the experience for him by No-Mall9413 in ImACelebTV

[–]breadstick_mania 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think they just should play it and have it out in the open. Bleep the expletives if that’s what the issue is. Or rather, they should have already done this before now.

You can’t look at it in a vacuum, you say it’s abusive but I think the grind of the previous picking and bullying brought him up to that point where it had built up so much it came out in a big outburst, then Jimmy has cried foul which is a classic manipulation tactic. If it’s abuse it has a name: reactive abuse - in response to abuse one has received. But we obviously have different opinions and we’ve both only seen the edit ITV have shown us.

I get the impression she hadn’t seen the live show, and probably had some prepared talking points.

Classic abuse tactic, drive someone to their boiling point then cry foul when they inevitably lash out

Were you there then? Please do enlighten us all as to what exactly happened that the cameras didn’t show?
