lol.. its the mealworm changed to cocoon. after that it will become a beetle.. then the beetle mate n lay eggs and there u get a mealworm.. and the cycle goes on and on and on..
feeding sg with cocoon.. well.. i dun even dare to try.. cause if i'm not sure then better not..
here my mealworm -> cocoon -> beetle..

Mealworms :- If u feed them when they r molting, whitish skin colour, it is high in protein. So as a white pupae.. Not cocoon. Pupae.

owh..so the middle one is pupae..thx =D

it definitely won't eat. until it molt/hatch/turn (dunno wat to call it) into a beetle..
then u need to quickly remove the beetle and put in another container or it will eat the other pupae..
then just feed the beetle like u feed the mealworm..
then after 2weeks if i'm not mistaken, remove the beetles into new container koz they probably lay eggs in that container..

thx very much =D
cant wait for it to hatch..XD

hi, need to ask some quick question here.i've noticed this few days that my sg hissing everytime during pooing. is this normal?i've done some googling and find no solution yet. anybody here have experienced this?if not im thinking of bringing it to the vet.
his diet consist mainly of fruit such as apple mango and some other fruit.some vegetable and also bugsy hpw complete

they say when it hisses during defecation, it's due too constipation. jus feed it apple juice will do.
but, my SG always hisses when it defecate and the poo just come out easily. so far till now no problem with it. smile.gif

2 month after the came out of pouch is the minimum duration they need to spend with their mothers. As for price, you can refer to the Pet Store sub forum.
