I've left you a visitor message on this topic!
This night is great! First of all, I got to see the male shed his skin! Being a snake-person by heart, I've really looked forward to seeing this in action. Didn't think I would see it so soon though! It was really amazing. What's also amazing is the pace that they learn things. They already know that lights out = feeding time, and they immediately rush to the leaves over the bowl to wait for the food-drop. This evening, they were very impatient. This is what I found when I was about to feed them, just a few minutes after the light turned off:
So, I went to get the food (which took 10 seconds), and this is what I found when I got back:
That's the male reaching down to the feeding bowl... I haven't even put anything in there yet! So I waited a minute or two for him to move, which he did (he sat his skinny button on the side of the bowl) and then added the dubias, after which they both immediately started to eat.
And one more thing... The male is really calling a lot tonight. Like, every 5 minutes! I like it.
Sorry for the bad pictures, I'm really not a photographer... Marléne (my beloved girl) on the other, is! So here's a bonus picture from the male, after a night of vigorous eating...
