Ralph Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 It's that time of the cycle where all the adults have died and left me with a few dozen ooths. Should these be kept the same as the nymphs and adults or do they do better when it's drier or more humid? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrCrackerpants Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 I keep one end moist (3-4 inches) and the rest dry. What is your substrate? How deep? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ralph Posted February 19, 2014 Author Share Posted February 19, 2014 It's about an inch of Eco-Earth mixed with oak leaf mulch. Thanks for the help! This is my first time with them (they're the Insect Zoo's) and so I want to be extra extra careful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can buy it at a pet store in bulk. I keep mine at 75 F with moderate ventilation. I also have a few terrestrial isopods to keep the enclosure clean. They hang out on the moist end. Good luck!

Ralph Posted February 20, 2014 Author Share Posted February 20, 2014 Thank you! I will deepen the substrate, it can't hurt and that's how we have it with the T. petiveriana. Shredded aspen.. hm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
