Of course! I still plan to get at least a GBB at the expo at the end of the month. Who knows, maybe more

Yep, that was the only thing that came to mind. Everything else seemed fine to me.

Whats an ootheca? The males are the ones with the big wings, correct?

Egg case. They "lay" them then suck them back up and give a live birth.

Some times you'll see them sticking out. Anytime you go to clean or sort them out etc. I always remove the adult females by hand.

They can't climb glass or smooth plastic. But... In a glass tank they may be able to climb the silicone. They don't need any substrate.

These guys are so tiny that you won't need that for awhile so dont worry a ton about it.

Yep i gave him that piece of wood to burrow under. I pushed down the substrate to compact it a bit so itd be more stable for him if he wants to burrow. I got these containers off of a website. They're hard plastic but still easily to put airholes in. I paid $25 shipped for 6 smaller and 6 larger ones. The lil vagans is in one of the larger ones. Heres the site:

Go explore the "plastic containers" section. Most of the stuff is pretty cheap. Shipping cost more than what i actually ordered lol.

I got some baseball cases just gotta drill them. Gotta go slowly

[Mike41793]

Those should work well too. Make sure you post a thread showing everything when you get yours

[carlson]

O I will, we got snow coming tonight

Congrats on the new addition! Super cute!
I like Ts, but I can't bring myself to have feeder insects around. Too creepy for me. The roaches sort of gave me the heebie jeebies. *shiver*
