Cera is being difficult at the moment, she won't come out of her burrow, But Littlefoot was happy to put on a show.

He ate a worm plus several roaches, and off the tongs!

That was what I was hoping for Wayne, the video of him eating a worm. :) I love how he licks his 'lips' when he's done.

Can you release some dubia in their inclosure in hopes that they will perpetuate their population or would they all be eaten before the got a chance to really breed.

The monitors would wipe them out.

This way I can control intake.

So I can keep track of what they eat.

Get them used to human interaction.

Roaches could escape that big enclosure into my house.

That about sums it up.

OK, the resolution sucks, so I am going to pick up a HD webcam.

I can hook it up via USB and record from that.

Check this out, right now as I type this I just dumped a whole pile of tasty treats in there and set up a candid cage cam, I won't know what I have recorded until about 20 minutes from now when the memory card is filled up.

This is what I just dumped in front of the camera..

Stinking youtube rejected my first effort, just becuase I used the song "Hunting Girl" in the sound track, "Third party content violation"

So here it is, with no music....
