She's certainly filled out since then!

Male (Blaze)



Female (Ember)


Bubs-to-be 1 and 2 (with a 3rd recently added but not pictured, 4th has gone AWOL)


Their setup (more cork bark has been added since these were taken)




They are currently housed together and they get by with very minimal contact and interaction. I do have a spare setup ready and waiting in case it all goes belly up... catching one will be the biggest problem!

One I found pretty quickly since he came out to investigate when I did my next bug feeding day. This other one however, has been elusive. I tore through the room and could not find him, so I assumed he either hid really well, or was cat bait. Last night I saw him hanging out under a light in that room. He's FAST! and a bit of a houdini... Before I stepped into the room he was under a shelf. By the time I bent down to look under it, he was nowhere to be seen. I checked under all the shelving units, and under/around anything on the floor of the herp room. He just disappeared into thin air. I don't know if he found a hiding spot under the base-board or what, but he's just not visible. I need to find him ASAP though, because we have a growing flea problem that has me sprinkling diatomaceous earth (sp?) all over the floor of the herp room (and much of the rest of the house). I know it works through dehydration, so I want to wash it off as soon as possible and get him safely out of the cat's reach.

How can I effectively trap him? would he go to a humid hide on the ground? He hasn't come out for the crickets when he hears the bin (they have gotten used to coming to the front of their containers when I move the cricket tubs). He is much more shy than the other one that had escaped. I would put out some crickets, but I'm not confident they won't disappear (not that they would get far, but that it would defeat the purpose). Any ideas? ]]> Paroedura MdngtRain http://www.geckosunlimited.com/community/paroedura/69125-suggestions-trapping-awol-picta-hatchling.html
