jreidsma Posted August 25, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 25, 2012 RIP little beetle Can't expect a hugely long life out of wild caught animals I guess. I have it pinned and drying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jreidsma Posted November 1, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 1, 2012 what do you feed those guys?? I feed them small crickets that I prekill or stun. They will take them right from tweezers if the crickets are stunned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
