Tupperware feeder method?

I think most UTH's come with them (At least mine did), so might as well use them anyway.

7 things- -What do you plan to use for substrate? -Make sure one of those hides is humid :D -You may need something to handle mealworms (Unless you plan to pick them up with fingers) such as feeding tongs or chopsticks -Make sure you have the proper size tank, 10 gallon or preferably a 20...

The oats are half the size of the pupae, so that won't work

I'm curious to know what you guys use when changing mealworm bedding. I bought a 6 qt. tub to keep all my mealies, aliens, and beetles in together, (I only have 1 gecko) and I can't think of a solution to changing bedding other than picking every single mealworm out and putting them in a...

It probably won't make to much of a difference. You can just adjust your rheostat or thermostat to the correct temp if it does, anyway.

1.) I use the feeding schedule that looks like this: Adult- Monday- Calcium Wednesday- Calcium Friday- Herptivite Saturday- Calcium w/ D3 Sunday- Calcium w/ D3 Juveniles: Mon- Calcium Tues- Calcium Weds- Calcium Thursday- Herptivite Friday- Herptivite Saturday- Calcium w/ D3 Sunday- Calcium...

I have one adult male SHCT and one juvenile male SS :D

I guess I'll try again today and hope it comes off :D

My new male SS has black... stuff... on his toes. My guess is it's dried herptivite. There's also smeared black stuff on the side of the tank w/ the water bowl. I have him soaking his feet in foot-high warm water. Im posting to see if you guys think it could be something else, or if you have any...

1 or 2 days before I switch them out with fresh ones.

Im using a Zoo Med rheostat to control my temps. It worked fine for awhile but recently the temperature has jumped to 101 while on the rheostat's lowest setting. My leo just moved to a part of the hot side that doesn't have the UTH directly under it, but is still at an acceptable temperature, so...

Would you use the vinegar and water then water for a water dish also?

I think mealworms are fine, it's just crickets are more nutritional and contain more moisture. Purchasing cricket gutload as mealworm bedding works fine, and mixing up the types of vegetables you provide for moisture should keep them nice and healthy, and also give your gecko nutrients. Just...

I got a new baby male super snow from an expo on the 2nd. He's eaten one mealworm since then and isnt good at hunting at all. He also runs for the closest cave whenever something moves.
