Welcome! Very nice collection you have there, and you have all those native Malaysian bugs right in your backyard.

What kind of insect are "Dockers"? I'm not familiar with that common name.

Well I started with many local species due to the accessablity of the animal. and Well to be frank not many malaysian appreciate our local snake and reptiles, instead they look for animals that is from oversea 1st. But then now i have most of the local species that I wanted and Now I want animals outside.

To your 2nd Questions. Is a Kind of Beetles, Coz everyone seem to give me a different name about the animal and I do have a lots more whcih i can't find the name or find the accurate name for them. Personally speaking not many good bugs and invert guys in my country are willing to share. I hope i have a Digi Cam with me coz I my phone camera sucks and my camera spoil. I will post the picture when I able to borrow a digicam from my friend.
