that_bug_girl Posted June 30, 2021 Share Posted June 30, 2021 I house both hissers and dubias in a 20 gallon terrarium. I have obtained some nymphs, but it seems as many go missing, some I am able to find later on as adults, others not. are they being eaten? am i just not seeing them? am I accidentally burying them under the substrate when I clean their habitat? I got a much smaller terrarium that I plan on using for raising future nymphs, but wanted to ask about the possible causes to the interpreted disappearances of the others.

that_bug_girl Posted July 6, 2021 Author Share Posted July 6, 2021 so, to update this, yes I do recommend this. It lets you monitor your nymphs better and keeping them in a smaller space lets them find food easier. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hisserdude Posted July 6, 2021 Share Posted July 6, 2021 Are there any gaps in the lid? Hisser nymphs are amazing escape artists and can squeeze out of the smallest of gaps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I do make sure there are no possible escape routes.The top of my enclosure is a tight mesh screen that slides in and locks in place. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
