So I decided to make my gangs enclosure bioactive and put in a second tier for extra roaming room.

The person who was supposed to supply the isopods did not pitch. So currently there are only earthworms and one Isopod (which I found outside) inside. I have taken the advise from another thread and put some cardboard with leave mulch and a wet cloth over outside to try and attractive more isopods. I was supposed use fish flakes but as I did not have any, I used some zoo med pellets under the leave mulch.

Then the second part of my project this weekend was to make a second tier for the gang to have extra walking room. It did not go too badly. However it is not the neatest nor most fancy, as my building skills are not that fantastic.
Here are some pics for you all to enjoy.20190203_212415.jpeg20190203_212440.jpeg20190203_212501.jpeg20190203_212522.jpeg20190203_212543.jpeg20190203_212604.jpeg20190203_212625.jpeg20190203_212649.jpeg20190203_212708.jpeg

How much do babies of this species cost. They are really beautiful. Maybe one day I could get some.

That is right. They are quite common here. But they are not allowed to be exported. So if you want them overseas, it will have to be from captive born stock. Which we are working on getting right.
