Thanks so much for this article. I always wondered why the "pee" was reddish brown. My first PTS didn't eat Pothos until about a year after I got her. I thought there was something wrong with her when I saw the red pee. Also, my current one has always eaten Pothos, so I have always seen the red pee. It seems to me that the Corucia/Pothos connection is kind of similar to the Koala/Eucalyptus connection. The plant is toxic to most, but the specialist feeder. This is why I wrote into Reptiles magazine about their Corucia article that did not once mention Pothos in the article, or Monstera or Ficus. Pothos is SO easily attained, why would anyone not provide it to their Corucia?
