Matttoadman Posted September 17, 2016 Share Posted September 17, 2016 I am curious what the best way to feed these two wc gals. The tiniest bit of food molds very quick. i have them in a ventilated plastic shoe box with some dry coco fiber and dead oak leaves. Also a small lid of water.

Hisserdude Posted September 17, 2016 Share Posted September 17, 2016 Just throw a bunch of dead leaves in there and offer small pieces of apple, which shouldn't mold up too bad, and once the colony gets bigger you can start throwing in a whole bunch of food. A few pieces of oats would be nice for them too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Salmonsaladsandwich Posted September 17, 2016 Share Posted September 17, 2016 Carrots are good too, they don't rot easily. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lovebugfarm Posted September 17, 2016 Share Posted September 17, 2016 Agreed carrot and apple are accepted by most vegitarian inverts all ways available and easy to find organic options. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matttoadman Posted September 17, 2016 Author Share Posted September 17, 2016 I put in a few oats, a piece of carrot along with the dead leaves. I checked them today and they have gotten fat. I hope they produce soon not knowing how old they are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
