    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Dwarfism or runt??

?????

Please point me to the cricket you are seeing, the last order of crickets I got are prewing. There might have been a few smaller ones but for the most part their almost adult size. And being small is not an issue like being to big as long as he is eating until he is full, right?

He gets vit d3 cal 5 days a week. after talking with the vet we decided this would be best due to variances in bulb output and life, same reason bulb gets replaced every 4 months. He also get roughly 4 hours real sun weekly. We had his blood drawn in may and every thing was perfect.
He basks for usually 2-3 hours after each feeding, there are places on his log that get to 115 all the way down to 89 on the hot side. He does have a slate rock that is attached to his log that he basks on as well as sleeps on, it holds temp very well as this is directly under his basking light. He has always had a nice fat belly, like I said he eats better than me. His vet is DVM Scott Stahl. I have had many fecals done and always come back clean. Never any undigested insects or veggies.

We did re-paper the insides of his cage. He is stressing out right now but still eating so we will see. Hopefully he will spurt like yours DJ...........
