Brunneria borealis

[Sneaky123]

My brunneria borealis nymphs won't eat. Is it because I'm giving them melanogaster fruitflies? I spray them once or twice a day. Anyone have any idea?

 

[ShieldMantid1997]

how old are they?

 

[Sneaky123]

Just hatched days ago

 

[agent A]

they might be a little young

give them another day or 2

 

[Sneaky123]

Alright. The one that's still alive is 4 days tho and the one that died is 6 days

 

[agent A]

what is the temp??

 

[Sneaky123]

78 degrees farenheit

 

[agent A]

Raise temp to 85

 

[Sneaky123]

Alright

 

[Sneaky123]

Ok, she seems a little healthier. Thanks

Still not eating. Flicking at fruitflies but not eating them

:/ I know they do that b4 molting, but 4 days is too early

THey should start with springtails. Buy them quickly. Fruit flies are too big for them at L1 but occcasionally one will go for it

My take fruit flies with ease. They actually are to big for spring tails (trust me I have tried both.)

Sorry that was just from what Carey told me

I think mine are taking mels. They are kind of shy eaters.

I really don't know what was wrong with the first two I hatched. I was catching random bugs outside, and the third brunneria caught a fly bigger than a melanogaster. I'm just going to keep on doing what I've been doing
