    What do they eat? what temp and how long can it stay in this 36x24x18 till she needs a bigger cage? LOL

    I was playing hide and go seek with my 4 year old daughter and I had this cage sitting on the kitchen table and my wife thought it would be a great place for her to hide?

    1. What do they eat? Everything except what they are supposed to...

    2. Temp? Cold = Sweater / Hot = Shorts - though mine seems to wear shorts & skate shirts all the time...

    3. Enclosure Size? I found mine to require additional room as they grow due to various accessories that "they cannot live without". I have a boy and his Star War / Lego sets take up two rooms...

    Ha! I would expect that hiding out of my boy as well... except he would find a way to lock himself in... :)

    guess you're in for the long haul....rewarding captives but they take about 20-25 years to get up to breeding age. Nice coloration :gj:

    Mine seem to do well on PB&J and Mac&Cheese. Attempts to switch them to meat and potatoes has proven difficult at best. They also seem to be prone to RI's at that age, and have a habit of getting out of their enclosure and crawling into bed with you at night!

    well when the final care sheet is done can someone send me what to do with a juv. Her cage is a mess and dispite our best attempts cleaning it is darn near impossible. supposedly they will clean there own inclosure but i have my doubts.
