    Jittery males

    Hi guys. More questions, but I didn't want to drift/hijak the earlier thread.

    Re: Silk worms (Bombyx mori) as feed?

    Thanks.

    My info. source listed Alabama jumber as Amynthus gracilus. Yep, more research needed. I'll try to find the Canadians Lumbricus terrestris at WM or PetSmart. I recall reading that they...

    Re: Silk worms (Bombyx mori) as feed?

    Thanks. I'll save them for spinning.

    Looking for backup options. This is the desert, so we don't have much in the way of natural and safe earthworms. I was thinking about getting a colony of...

    Silk worms (Bombyx mori) as feed?

    I used to raise silkworms for the cocoons for spinning, and purchased some eggs raise up again this spring. They tend to be prolific.

    OK to feed a fresh one to a garter, in case I end up with...

    Sorry to hear it didn't make it.
    I HATE it when they die.

    Several years ago, a complete stranger on the street handed me an injured pigeon. I did the best I could for the little bird, but it...

    Does T. radix like to climb?

    I have an unused rather tall 35 gallon tank. IIRC, something like a 30" by 12" foot print, and about 22" high. I have a good screen top and clips that have proven to hold snakes, so the tank is a...

    Re: Hi, It's been a while...

    Thanks.
    Looking forward to it. I've made several planted tanks, but the foam background will be new for me.

    Hi, It's been a while...

    After joining about a year ago (?), in anticipation of getting garters, I got distracted with other species and projects. So, a rosy boa, a pittuophis, numerous fish, and a few birds later, I'm...

    Re: Hello from NM

    Thanks. I will enjoy.
    As for what kind...not sure. Obviously two or a trio will have to get along. No plans to breed, so probably same sex. I really like the Radix that Qwerty has posted pics...
