    Can anyone ID this critter?

    Thank you, that should have been obvious. Interesting, its so small. My roach colony was started about 6 months ago and I haven't introduced anything new in that time as my roaches have flourished. Couldn't figure out how it got into the colony. Now that its been ID'd I did a little googling and...

    Can anyone ID this critter?

    I've found a couple of these little things in my dubia roach colony and don't know what they are. Have no idea where they could have come from since the colony is stored inside a closed off container inside of a closet on the inside of the house. Don't appear to be hurting anything but really...

    Cleaning tip for those using tile (or similar) flooring

    Silica gel is non toxic. Silica gel in an enclosed vessel, such as the pee pad or those little packets, does not produce dust particles.

    Feeding feeder Dubia vs. feeding breeder Dubia

    I didn't indicate oranges are toxic. Hdrydr31 indicated feeding oranges to feeders could lead to toxicity in BD's fed them. I asked if there is any supporting data. Understanding oranges are acidic are we assuming when a feeder consumes the orange that there is no change in the properties of the...

    Feeding feeder Dubia vs. feeding breeder Dubia

    Is there any research available that supports feeding oranges to feeder roaches lead to toxicity in bearded dragons that are fed them? Totally understand the logic but seems like a lot of factors would be involved. Example would be a deer can and will eat many different kinds of toxic plants but...

    Background Wraps

    We've had it in place a few months and so far no issues. The laminate job I had done has an adhesive backing but I choose not to peel and stick it and used tape instead. Made sense not to attach anything permanently especially from a cleaning stand point though so far I have not had a need to...

    Cleaning tip for those using tile (or similar) flooring

    In the process of cleaning Sampsons tank and was surprised at the amount of fluids and other stuff that had made its way underneath the tiles we use. I'm sure some of it is just plain water from his water dish but some of it looks like it should require full decon hazmat suits before handling...

    Background Wraps

    Personally I didn't like the available subject (pictures) on the cling on backgrounds I could find. My other issue was that I wanted to cover three sides of my 40 gallon breeder tank. This meant I needed to order different sizes for the sides and then contend with whether or not the picture...

    Dragon Sitting?

    We're not exactly sure how old he is as he was a rescue but the rescue group thought him to be a couple years old. Feeding him salad is quite the chore but he's getting better. Now he only gets a cricket or super worm AFTER he eats some salad. We think he's catching on but he still has his days...

    Dragon Sitting?

    The wife and I will be going on a vacation the week after Christmas and have no idea what we're going to do with our Sampson. Anyone living around the south of Houston, TX willing to dragon sit for a week? Our dogs will be with a relative but no way this relative would keep a bearded dragon much...

    Tank backgrounds

    I've been looking for a good looking cling on background (dessert type) for my 40gal breeder tank. Its 36x16. I prefer a cling on as it will be simpler to remove when cleaning. I see a lot of people build their own backgrounds and while I admire that I am craft challenged and that is not an...
