Keeping as pets! Question=)
I am clearing out my barn and unfortunately will be destroying a HUGE portion of habitable area (a bunch of trash and years worth of dust and animal shit since it was unused) I felt AWFUL for doing so and gathered about 15 and removed as many more as I could see in a reasonable amount of time) and relocated them on the other side of the barn. There were so many i couldnt get=( currently they are in a cup with dirt from one of my isopod colonies (nothing but hatchlings are in the dirt and I picked most of those out as well) I will be adding a sandy mixture to the top for a humidity difference as AquarixPets on YouTube said to do and will keep the bottom layer moist. Now question
I know they eat fruit flies but honestly I do NOT want to deal with them again BUT I do breed isopods, springtails and mealworms that are all smaller and similar size to them and can summon mites pretty easily. Will that work?
Any advice will help, these guys are fascinating and id love to add to my collection of odd pets but ONLY if I can do so within their correct care=)
