Allow me to introduce you to Salicious B Crumb. or Mamma or Miss Sally. All of you Star Wars fans will know what it means.
SHe was a true rescue in our eyes. We got a call that some woman was going to toss her and another critter into te freeer unless they were picked up the next day. We made arrangments to pick her and the other guy up with both of the tanks. When we got there we discovered he horrible living conditions she was in. Every Friday 100 crickets were dumped in to her tank and the other tanks. They had a 100 watt bulb each and that was it. No veggies and the crickets were eating them. We were told that she had a male mate a year before but had nothing since. When we got her home, took abut 2 weeks to get her to take veggies and about a month to eat crickets. Feed her superworms, hornworms and got the right lights on here. Within a month she was extremly eggy and went the rest of the season with her laying eggs and being slighty cranky. Its now been 2 months with no eggs and now she gets to just relax and enjoy being spoiled. She still likes to wear the carrot hat and loves the eat strawberries mixed with kale out of an eye dropper.
