    Thanks!!! My wife is not a big fan of creepy crawlies at all. She tolerates them because I like them but does not mess with any of them at all - lol. She will glance in a cage though every once in a GREAT while

    Thanks!! No those are not real plants, I use fake ones - lol. I was thinking about it but don't want to mess with special bulbs and if the plants happen to die I would have to take them out and re-do the enclosure (and if webbing was attached I would have to break it) etc. So I just decided fake was eaiser - lol. Oh, and I got a very good deal on her because I picked her up and bought her from a friend of mine in Philly

    I know of people who have had good luck with live plants and make beautiful enclosures so don't give up just yet!! I am still considering live plants as an option some day but at the moment fake is just way eaiser - lol.
    As for the A. brocklehursti, I have never kept one so I don't know. If they are like an A. geniculata then they will lay webbing down just not heavily. I have fake plants in my genics enclosure and she has ripped them down. I will need to tact them up with hot glueso she stops destroying everything - lol.

    Yes and super worms. I just put in an order for some B. dubia roaches to start breeding them because I hate the sound and smell of crickets. I am getting 60 males, 80 females and 700 unsexed dubias to start my colony and they are shipping out tomorrow. No more crickets unless I have a stubborn feeder
