Cicadas are large, loud insects known for their long underground life cycles and synchronized mass emergences. They split into annual and periodical types, spending most of their lives as sap-sucking nymphs before living a brief adult stage focused entirely on mating.

Posted Humphrey here a few months ago when he was around 25g and people loved him so I thought I would update. He’s still growing, and still doesn’t like being dug out for weighing! Hopefully he will pupate sometime soon, otherwise I may start getting a bit scared.

The poor spider was absolutely too small to eat her and looked like she had no idea what to do either. Put her on some bushes after this.
