heres a few snaps as promised, settled in really well and now getting more and more tame... sleepy sods though lol
still getting to work out the difference between the three so may be some repeat shots... Gork, Mork and Dork.. named after the Ork gods and dork was named by the witch I live with.
Edit.. think these are all of the same one, doh.. its the most tame so always climing out on me and letting me take pics, will get some of the other two at some point |

unfortunately woke this morning to find one of them dead, really really gutted and no idea what caused it 
it was under some bark dead with a cricket munching on it which was disgusting.. no sign of impaction or any ill effects. (apart from the bloody obvious dead part)
they were active and feeding very well up until this and it happened between 3am and 10am.
Really at a loss as to what could have caused it and if its my fault... feel toss about it now.
Bark was all sterilized, tank clean and the rocks sterilized too, temps are fine and they have been drinking spring water and have not been hurt in any way.
Soo gutted considering they are all getting so tame and friendly this was the last thing I expected 3 weeks after getting them.
Am thinking of getting the survivors wormed just to be on the safe side and checked for any parasites they may have picked up since I got them, but can imagine what has caused it.
I know from working with and keeping insects that sometimes they do just keel over its a part of life, but its still gutting.
anyone got any experience with this happening before, was directed by the people I bought them off to check a thread on livefoods.co.uk and that was something simular but rather depressing.
help please! |
