Bugshelf

[HungryGhost]

I guess some would call it a bookshelf, but if it's full of bugs it's a bugshelf. I set this up yesterday for my 14 mantids and 4 tarantulas.

The deli cups above the 10 gallon tank have tarantula spiderlings. The cups below have various mantids.

4 tarantulas now, awesome. I myself am down to 11 mantids in 3 species. In anticipation of at least one more tarantula.

A funny thing happened since I posted this. Another T on my wish list became available Euanthlus sp. "Chilean yellow dwarf". I ordered one and when I opened the package the dealer included a freebie Aphonopelma hentzi "Oaklahoma tan". So make that six T's and counting.

It's actually a clear plastic pretzel jar. Inside is a piece of green plastic mesh with a Chinese ooth waiting to hatch. The mesh is something for the nymphs to climb on.

Just keep an eye on the light/heat from that window as the season changes.

I have a little envy. Just a little.
