    Yep i still give them some here and there! :)

    I feed them two or three times a week and every 3rd or 4th feeding they get the roach chow.

    I haven't seen any wings being chewed so i think i'm good. :gj:

    I don't see it a lot but I also have 100s of males.
    Mine have been going nuts the past few weeks. Maybe its the heat, I don't know. They have also been going through a ton of food.

    :( sadness strikes. think I lost a baby vagan. I checked them last night and there was one on its back. I was like sweet its gonna molt. Just looked in and its still on its back. Shouldn't take that long should it? Its been right about 24hrs. I didn't mess with it just in case.

    Most likely gone :/
    When you get high numbers and they are that small, you'll loose some here and there.

    Yea kinda figured. It was tiny even compared to the others. On the up side all of the pumpkin patches ate. How are you're babies all doing? I can't wait for those carpet babies to settle in so I can handle them! That's the highlight of the summer man I can't thank you enough!

    :) man I can't wait to see what they look like as they grow!

    Tonight I fed the irminia, versicolor, PPs, incei, Chacos, some bigger albops. A few of the versi have molted. The PPs are so freaking small, when they burrow I can only hope they are OK. I hate it when they are that tiny.

    Tomorrow will be the vagans, hentzi and albops. A lot of those have burrowed too. They need a few good molts, quick! I'll feel better about everyone once they can take live food.

    thats cool. i've fed everything live so far. i've had some tiny pinheads available though so its been pretty easy. now next week i'll be cutting 1/8" crickets in half because all of my pinheads have molted a couple times and I wont be able to get more until the 11th at the harmar house show unless I want to order them.
