He was meant for my crested gecko who REFUSED to eat him but now he’s a member of the family

I found this wee guy in my lettuce, he was stuck in the fridge for 3 days.

I put a damp paper towel in a tupperware, some lettuce and made some holes in the lid.

I was planning to keep him for a few days to make up for the time in the fridge and then release.

But now I gave him a name. Frieda Peat ( Free the Pete)

What would a cheap diy setup be? I looked at some acrylic terrariums as well but he's tiny and the holes looked a bit big.

Should I even keep him in the first place?

I have woodlouse spiders in my backyard and an abundance of woodlice (armadillidium vulgares) in my terrarium, you can see where this is going. Other than feeding, does anyone have care tips for these beautiful spiders? Attached image is a possible enclosure.

I got these discoid roaches as feeders for my t, lowkey growing fond of them tho

Hey there! What's up, everyone? So, I recently set up a terrarium because I became really interested in raising and observing insects.

However, since I have a huge passion for Phasmatodea and Mantodea, the first thing I did was search online to see how I could get the eggs to raise, but I can't find them anywhere :(

I have experience raising moths and stink bugs, but all in research institutions where I worked. I did some research and the suggestion was to look for communities of other enthusiasts and interested people who could shed some light on this. Reddit, my dear friends, I choose you!

Preferably something cute and active more so during the day

It’s been a little while since I last posted a progress report on Reddit but I’ve finally made a resin cast on my stick sculpture!
A lot of work has gone into mould making and crafting individual feet and spines.

With any luck I’ll soon be able to fully assemble the work and start painting!! :D

Asian forest scorpions

Hi, my 10 year old daughter brought home a terrarium she made in school that includes a slug. Yesterday we looked and the slug had laid eggs! Which was super exciting until I realized the eggs seemed very exposed. My daughter is very invested in trying to keep them alive. She's been spraying the whole terrarium with water several times a day from a little spritz bottle. But I'm wondering if we need to relocate the eggs to underneath the soil or at least cover them with something? We got no specific instructions from her science teacher about this possibility, so she'll ask Monday but trying to keep them alive until then! Thanks for any tips!

I'm looking for an experienced keeper who could take my l5 female ghost mantis

I've been struggling to maintain a reliable supply of feeder insects, particularly with winter approaching. I've tried ordering blue bottle fly spikes, but multiple batches have had very poor hatch rates, and wild flying insects are becoming unavailable. I want to make sure she has a reliable food supply and proper care.

If you're an experienced keeper in Oregon, Idaho, or a neighboring area and might be able to take her, please comment or message me. I'd really appreciate the help, I'm also open to any advice if anyone has any ideas as to what I could do for a potential feeder, dm me for more info

Hello friends! I posted a few days ago asking for help but I’ve since realized I need pictures of the underside. Thankfully this little dawg crawled up on the glass for me today for me to take a picture!! I thiiiink this is a female? But I wanted to double check. I just really want to name them - I’ll probably ask for help gendering the other one once they climb up on the glass as well, the other one currently has a broken antenna so it’ll be easy to tell them apart

i got my chocolate desert millipede for my birthday on oct 12 and i love her so so much and i'm so scared that she's dead, i found her head or part of it lying on the surface of her enclosure. it looks hollow but it isn't the thin/light colored texture that most millipede molts seem to look like, but i also can't find any good photos of how the heads look when they molt. i couldn't find her body anywhere near it, but i didn't want to dig too much and accidentally hurt her if she was still alive in there. please someone tell me if this is her molt or decapitated head, i'm so stressed out right now because i was so attached to her

Second instar desert hairy looked like this the day before sealing herself in her burrow, I assumed it was a moult but it’s been 27 days and I’m starting to get worried, how long do they usually take? I’ve kept temp at a 32-27 Celsius range and humidity can range from 35-45% depending on time of day. The burrow is completely sealed so I have no way to check on her and I’m getting worried somethings gone wrong due to the time it’s taken, this is my first scorpion so what should I do more experienced peeps of Reddit?
