So far she's still going strong! Mom called me the other day with the greeting "Im NEVER doing this AGAIN!" lol. I asked her to pop the back legs off the crickets so they would stay in the low feeding cup I have on the ground, that way we can tell she's getting them and easier for her to reach. Mom wasnt thrilled with this idea. But shes stronger and climbing around on the vines alot better now so good news so far! Im probably going home next weekend to do a check up, so a definite update then!

Here you got yourself a beardie! Im so jealous! Im sure he's going to have a wonderful time with you!

Thanks for asking!

I am so glad to hear this!! Give your Mom a big hug! I hate snapping cricket legs, and avoid at all costs, but sometimes it needs to be done. An easy, quick way is to use forceps, tweezers or whatever and grab the "thigh" of the leg, give a quick flick of the wrist and it is off. If you grab the lower part it usually just twists around and is painful for everyone!
