Looking forward to their first shed. Considering I wasn’t going to keep Boo, I think they had some little cuties!

Still never gets old!
My little Kinder Surprises :heart_eyes: I’ve been out to check on them 3 times already because I can’t stop staring, still amazes me how small they are to what they become.
This was a whole new pairing and KJ’s first. So he’s officially a Daddy!
Boo’s cheating on Corpse (previously came to me as a ‘pair’) but that’s ok as he’s got Zombie now :joy:
Plus his lazy ass sits in a plant all day, I don’t know if he’s even put the moves on zombie yet :sweat_smile:

What kind of enclosure do you have for them? I can kinda see it in the background but I’m very curious :yum:

ghoulishcresties and I have had this conversation before, she uses the same as me.

They are plastic shoe boxes from Amazon. They are amazing for baby / juvenile Cresties.

Although I’ve been meaning to ask how ghoulishcresties covers the front vent? My one has a metal bar, but I was thinking of using something like expanding foam instead?

Here is a pic of my enclosure:

SONGMICS shoeboxes they are.
I use the 35x25x18.5. 2 hatchlings went in 2 days ago now :blush:
Mine aren’t bio right now, I use kitchen towel atm with branches, bark and a plant. But the bottom I’ve yet to do as I wait until I see them actively hunting crickets a few times first :blush:
Plus I did try ‘bio’ and woodlice escaped :joy:
So will be covering lower back holes first now! Lesson learnt with dairy cows running about! :woman_facepalming:t2::sweat_smile:

I also use the white duct tape (material like one) to cover the front hole on mine!

I have springtails in mine, I don’t know if they have escaped, but there are definitely lots in there still so I doubt it.

I would do the same, kitchen roll first then bio later it’s easier to tell if they are pooping well
