    Re: I am so excited and happy!

    Just be sure to keep an eye on the temps when the air is on or durring winter time! I use a 12x12x18T viv and run a 50W lamp to keep the top at a constant 80 degrees durring the day and around 70-75 at the bottom using a small UTH that runs 24 hours a day. They do need a day / night cycle so if your not using lamps be sure there is enough daytime light and that it changes from light to dark a regular schedual.
    They will do great without Crickets...but man if you ever get a chance to get some you wont regret it, its a blast to watch them hunt! I get my Crickets from Petco for 10 cents a piece, I buy a dozen every week. Its nice because they are bagged for you, you just dump in a little calcium powder, shake and dump the bag inside the enclosure, I have never had one get out. Even durring the day, if she sees crickets she will come down out of her bushy plant and hunt in like 5 seconds, lol. AMBUSH !!!! hahahaha...she will actualy dive from a branch and just hammer the crickets, quite fun to watch. hehehe I pick up some small Mealworms once in a while too for a nice fatty treat.

    Congrats on the "talking into" hehehe! Cant wait to see some pics!!!!!

    My little Pebbles...
