[…]Costa Rica, I observed Marine Toads that had learned to gather under a light and wait for stunned insects…most nights, they began congregating before the light went on. I’ve seen wild wild electric eels demonstrate their intelligence, and one recent study revealed that insects of the same species exhibit surprising […]
[…]are promoted for convenience-sake and as an option for pet owners who do not wish to handle live insects or rodents. However, I’m mainly interested in Zoo Med’s Pacman Frog Food because it may help to solve 2 recurring problems faced by frog owners. The first is the difficulty in […]
[…]well as smaller salamanders. The larvae prey upon zooplankton, dragonfly larvae and other aquatic insects, fairy shrimp, tadpoles, red-spotted newt larvae and each other. Spotted salamanders produce toxic skin secretions but are none-the-less consumed by garter snakes and hog-nosed snakes. Introduced trout, bass, goldfish and other fishes prey upon the […]
[…]are attracted to ginger, which releases a chemical (Alpha Copaene) known to attract wood-boring insects. Ginger-baited traps proved very effective. Simultaneously, tiny microphones were used to detect the noises made beetle larvae as they moved about below ground or in dead wood (many invertebrates stridulate, or vibrate various body parts, […]
[…]had very good results with earthworm-based diets over many years.

Zookeepers and hobbyists have long coated crickets with high-quality powdered calcium and vitamin/mineral supplements in an effort to improve […]
[…]nutrients…again, the aquarium fish trade provides us with useful options…from fresh water insects to marine animals (use these in moderation), there are a number of very valuable herp foods to be had. Animals that accept only live prey are especially troublesome when it comes to supplementation, as one cannot coat […]
[…]articles linked below. Today I’ll discuss earwigs – common, hardy, and largely-ignored insects that have great potential as pet food. They are also extremely interesting in their own right, with females caring for their eggs and actually carrying food to the young! Why Earwigs? Earwigs are readily accepted by a […]
[…]green frogs, Rana (Lithobates) clamitans in an outdoor pen, where I used ripe fruit to attract insects for them to eat.
