POISON DART FROGS
Progess Report
An Accident in Paradise The title (Sven Väth 1993) came to me immediately to mind when I create a heading for the following report examined.Since last year (09/2008), I believe in my room Madagascar frog-Taggeckos (Phelsuma madagascariensis grandis). I began with an animal and bought me after 3 months, 2 additional animals added. They should be escaped flies, bean beetles, spiders, etc. in the room decimating frog. The development of the first animal was quite fast and works flawlessly. In addition, I fed, as recommended by the breeder, something Babyfrüchtebrei in a Petri dish.
This had the disadvantage, however, that the former be soft feces and thus was the elimination of such expenses was. A little carrot juice has also been offered a test, but almost undigested resigned and left behind ugly stains. A extrasfeeding seemed to me necessary to adequately feed in this stage of development and also a change to be able to offer. With the withdrawal of two other geckos, I got no choice but to also have some cricket to feed. Since then, unfortunately, feed smaller animals such as flies, beetles spiders us more and more spurned. Unfortunately this is the real meaning has been largely missed. Still makes it just fun to watch them as skillfully on the walls move. Although they are very shy and pull quickly back behind the terrarium, if you are too quick to move on. Each visitor is just fascinating, but a limited imitation recommended, because a high humidity is essential to skin problems. Speaking of skin: I've found nothing so far and am curious how much I like this move behind the Terrariums think. Their places were they are now sought, and each formed a small territory. Your favorite sites are directly on the reflectors of the terrarium next to a lamp or ballast. What struck me more and more to create power, many of the random droppings on terrariums, lamps on the ground or disposed of, and yet some time for his removal swallowing. Anyway, so I will also be able to live in the future.
The winter months, I had concern the animals would be the abgekipptem windows can cool or even when closing window between the outside and installed Flygaze be excluded. Thoroughly the evening before the closing window. It happened months, until one evening I already tired from the day, the window just closed. Only the next day when you open the window, the shock hit me. In the Fliygaze dangles off a tail of a gecko. I quickly checked both windows completely, and had unfortunately in the second window at the bottom of an already dead animals found. What a tragedy, after many months of each window was scrupulously monitored, if I had not expected. But as so often in life: "stupidity is punished!" The greatest danger are simply the window, the door can be opened for some time, without the geckos that even getting close to plunge. It is generally rather avoid.
