I have a springtail culture that I got months ago from Josh's Frogs, but I stopped feeding them for ages. Recently I've been trying to get back into doing that to get the colonies going again, and I'm so excited that they're really springing (sorry) back! They're all the little white grain looking things, and the fluffy white is mold, which they eat.

#fbw rambles #my pets #kinda anyway #want to be able to add them to the bioactive vivs occasionally #which are Clover and Spoon and Charis #springtails #they came back faster than i expected really

3.5 months, bug zoomies! He still loves roaches.

This boy moves fastest for roaches! Also I'm delighted, this is the first time he's been on that back grapewood log. He really seems to be enjoying all of his branches a lot & that makes me so happy. He's been enjoying his new ponytail palm by chewing on one of the leaves too. 😂

Two months, able to stand up on his legs for short periods

Please excuse the mess but

He was fully standing on his back legs!!!

Look at that power stance!!!

He ate half of a big salad yesterday, including butternut squash for the first time! He got roaches as a reward when I got home. He'd been fully pancaked under his slate, till I tipped the bowl to show him. Quite literally about 1 second later, he was next to the bowl and nabbing bugs! He moved so fast!!! I need to try and get a video!

After only a couple weeks, with good food in him & proper lighting for digestion, vitamin metabolism, and wakefulness.

Ed had zoomies yesterday after eating! I missed most of them while cleaning his tank, but grabbed this short bit. I'm biased, but I still think you can see the difference in his movement between this and my first video of his movement. He's definitely got more strength & energy!

I was looking through my Ed tag last night for some old pictures, and Jack & I went down memory lane a bit, seeing how far he's come. So I'm reblogging some of his movement videos. I still can't believe how fast he turned around with proper lighting and diet. I seriously wish pet stores would fix their damn info.

Got a video of Ed trying to move for my post in the fb group. He's a little more hydrated after a soak & drinking from a syringe earlier. We may see what we think about food tomorrow, but we'll see.

To absolutely no one's surprise, I currently have 8 different kinds of greens in the fridge for Ed. 😂 Mustard, collard, turnip, cilantro, and arugula from the store. Dandelion & plantain from the yard.

I had fun with animal food yesterday. Ed got a pretty salad with collard greens & turnip greens, and (from the yard) dandelion greens, plantain, violet leaves, and violet & dandelion flowers. The rats got some wheat toast with corn & peas baby food spread on it, topped with a dry seed/grain/veg mix.
