I would like to know how others keep their amyae. You saw mine.
At what temps are you keeping them? About 87 on the hotside and 82 on the cool side.
How often do you mist them? Once a week.
Do you give your's a water bowl? No
Do you give them a humid hide? Nope
Any additional info explaining how you care for your's would be greatly appreciated. Told you already...;-)
Thanks

Hard question considering the USA, Europe & Australia maybe keeping differently. I guess its what they are used to. Anyway this is my way:
I would like to know how others keep their amyae.
At what temps are you keeping them? 80F or 27C (all heating turned off all day & night)
How often do you mist them? Twice a week
Do you give your's a water bowl? Yep - I see them drinking from it readily.
Do you give them a humid hide? Nope - Just moist area in enclosure.
Any additional info explaining how you care for your's would be greatly appreciated. Ask Ken :wink:

Hi everyone! Here's what I do:
At what temps are you keeping them? About 87 hot side, 72 cold side
How often do you mist them? once a week
Do you give your's a water bowl? No.
Do you give them a humid hide? No, but my breeding pairs have a shallow tub of moist sand with a hiding place over it. The females readily use it for egg deposition.
Also I feed my mine B. dubia roaches, occasionally dusted with vitamin/calcium supplement (the roaches are also fed a high-quality diet), and once in a while pinkies.

At what temps are you keeping them?
Room temp, which is between 26-32C roughly. I do have a heat lamp, which I only use on very cold nights (not every night) for a few hours in the evening.
How often do you mist them?
when I feed him (very large crickets, dusted in calcium), so roughly 2 or 3 times a week currently. I will only be doing this once a week as the weather becomes cooller.
Do you give your's a water bowl?
Yes. Not sure if he uses it, but the option is there.
Do you give them a humid hide?
No. But definitely a hide is required for the day time.
Other:
The substate is "red desert sand" (although Im not entirely sure that it actually comes from the desert as such - more likely crushed red rock. And he LOVES to dig in it! I have also tried a section of the enclosure as moist vermiculite which he loved digging in and throwing all over the enclosure! I was a little worried about him eating it though, so removed it, much to his annoyance.)
cheers,

At what temps are you keeping them?
about 28 C
How often do you mist them?
Never, not a lot of call for mist in a desert
Do you give your's a water bowl?
Yes, their only source of water
Do you give them a humid hide?
No, they rarely used it when I offered it but a dry hide is essential
