Hey all, I finally got a pair of my most favorite type of jackson: mt meru! They are doing VERY well. I've had them for 4 days now and I've showered them everyday to get them hydrated and they ate the moment they saw their frist cricket. A couple things I have noticed is that they stay rather dark when in my house (its not the temps: ambient = 78 and basking = 85). When I take their cages out they brighten up and seem happier. I wouldn't mind keeping them both outside except southern Florida temps can reach 90 in the sun which is a bit too high for them I hear. Another issue is that my male went through a shed before I got him and there is still skin that seems to be caked on top of his head. I don't want to peel it of cuase thats a big No No but I of the 4 showers only a little has come off.



Do I leave the skin alone?

Do I leave them outside?



P.S. Anyone who has taken care of mt meru's if they could provide any extra information from the adcham care guide it would be much appreciated.



THANKS ALL!
