  • @cricketj7399
    @cricketj7399 11 месяцев назад

    I've raised so many katydids, you are absolutely right on how to care for these creatures. You have to keep upping the size of the enclosure as he grows. There are many insect species that use spermatophores for reproduction like crickets and mantises.

  • @rachville

    You are underrated, this is great! Everything matches what I've observed over years of keeping katydids. One thing though, you said they molt 4 times to reach adulthood. I found some eggs of this species and raised them. After 3 molts I could see the wings forming, and another 3 molts later it was an adult, so 6 molts. May I ask where the number 4 comes from? This is an old video so if you don't answer that's fine, but I am curious. Also, going by my katydids' molt schedule, it appears yours has already molted 4 times 🤔

    • @cricketj7399
      @cricketj7399 11 месяцев назад

      Absolutely right. I also raise katydids and most species have 6 molts until adult.

    Great quick tip video. Very informative, I really enjoyed hearing the scientific words and comparisons to other similar creatures. I’ve recently purchased four on my beach trip and really want to give them the best environment. I want my crabs to comfortably change shells but idk how to set up its habitat. Please do a video on how you got yours to survive so long. Thanks!

    woah, finally a GOOD hermit crab video, and not some mom who made the mistake of buying them for her 5 year old, or pet store people telling you a bunch of garbage. And yes, 40+ years are what these guys can get to. I have a purple pincher who is about twice the size of yours. So just imagine the age :0

    • @Nothingtoya
      @Nothingtoya 3 года назад

      Crab Central Station is a pretty good source of information. She (like many people) buy them because their kids want them. As for me, my daughters were with their grand parents one day and came home with 2 of them. I immediately started to try and find information on them and it can be extremely confusing. It's now been 6 months and they seem to be doing well. I have seriously updated their living space, pools, and food.
