Thank you!! Just today I accidentally acquired a pet locust 😂 you can't imagine how useful this has been!!!!!! Leggy says thank you too

This was really helpful I feed locusts to my dragon and they kept dying so this really helped

Some top tips! keeping your prey items healthy and well fed is naturally reflected in the condition of the preditor you feed them too. I always feed our prey items for 3-4 days before feeding them off, the colour change alone once they have rehydrated is amazing.

I found your channel recently, great content! Love the insect keeping videos. 👍😊💕

Very helpful. Thanks! Most people on KZfaq and forums keep crickets, dubias and worms as feeders so it's kind of hard to find good information on locusts and my dragon loves 'em.

You’re a great source of knowledge 👍 Thanks so much. And you always make me smile with your enthusiasm - keep it up!

Is important to keep what your feeding your animals healthy and alive and good advice

Very informative, helped me a lot, one thing that makes it easier for me, is that the people I get mine from breed them, and feed them, so I can get them fresh and healthy which is great.

Thanks for these sort of videos, they are a great help mate.

Hi, thanks for the amazing video on the locust, it has sorted out what i need to do to keep my locust alive longer.😁

Hi...I am in Buncrana Co.Donegal Ireland...I was in our local pet shop getting Goldfish food for granddaughter when the owner showed me some live locusts....I always wanted to have a vivarium when a child 55years ago. I asked him if he had suitable containers...he had a second hand 2ft long aquarium...for only 20 euros...so got that for the Goldfish (and placed in the garden) and used the ex Goldfish tank for the Locusts. I had been putting in Basil growing in pots ...from Lidl...they were devoured quite quickly...on here for advice. I have them about 2 months and only 1 left...so going to get more and try carrot. I think the Locusts are just as interesting to keep as a reptile...and they are Vegetarian like self. I dont begrudge the reptile keepers though ...nature will out.

Love your videos, have watched so many now, thanks to you I have a breading Dubai roach colony, plus I have started a fruit beetle colony, got my first 3 sun Beatles, now thinking so do a locust colony aswell, would love to get to know you because I'm uk aswell

Extremely helpful many thanks

Great video again. Compared your notes to mine experience with crickets. You nailed it!

my beardie LOVES locust's so watching this has helped me a great deal.

Question for you matey - I am trying to keep my locusts well and healthy and this video has been very helpful - thank you. My question relates to cleaning … what is your method for cleaning the locust enclosure? Do you remove them into a safe zone while you clean out their primary habitat? Or does the micro-cleanup-crew do the job and you never have to rehouse them for cleaning? Cheers bruv

Good video man! Well impressed with your quality of content and your delivery is great!

I got a setup atm with 2 adult locusts in a tub with sticks to climb on, the egg holder they come with and a exoterra dirt floor. I keep one corner moist for egg laying and have a heat lamb on constantly. I also have a custom mesh on the roof for ventalation as the container was originally a fish tank so I had a big humidity problem at the start. I feed them on the water balls and bug grub which i put on a plastic dish. They absolutely love life I'm very happy with the life I've given them, they breed like rabbits. I have a nice picture of eggs where they've laid them on the side of the container!

I've recently recieved a dragon from the missus and these videos and your guides in general are fantastic for new owners. I've always wanted to do more than just hope they survive then dust them

Happily watched longer than 2 mins… 🤟🏻 thanks dude

Great tips thanks 👍☺️

Cheers for the info big help

Thank you very much for your videos.

love this vid so informative..just what the doc ordered thanks so much .

Cheers for the video fella

It's good practice to thoroughly wash all fresh food you give them in case of pesticides. Very informative video :)

Cheers bud, well good info 😁

They look so happy in there eating that carrot 🥕😍

Very helpful thank you I’ll be trying this, I’ve had loads of success with the super worms thanks to your help

bro i lol the monitor in the back round

Great tips, just one thing, I saw your video on keeping crickets alive longer and you used a layer of vermiculite so put that in first before the locusts and they have stayed alive for quite a few weeks or is that because they are more hardy than crickets?

Great videos keep them coming where about in the uk r u from

Brilliant advice. Thank you so much. :)

Great video thankyou. How do you get just a few out without others escaping. I usually open the little tubs in the vivarium

Thank you for the great video!!!

Helpful!! Thanks 🤙🏻🤙🏻

Yes that was very informative thank you 😎👍

What locust species is the best for breeding? Is locusta migratoria the best like I've heard?

Really good thank you ! Keep it up

I tried all these tips and they set fire 🔥 to my kitchen!

Nice advice 👍

What other veggies do you find work well?

Thanks, we’re keeping them as pets for my class.

That container you said was around 1.5 pounds would be about €20 where I live😕

Any tips on cleaning and swapping out old food for new and cleaning the tub without any escapees? Tia

I work as a science technician in a school where we have a beardy, been trying to keep her live food in more natural looking enclosures for added education and prettification of class rooms. Had the locust in a fish tank on turf, locust seem to like it till I kill the grass of as I've been cautious of watering it too much so as not to send the humidity too high. Any tips for more natural enclosure. Also thanks for the videos they're really helpful.

Thanks

Really helpful thanks would cucumber work

Great idea to put the carrot in as a whole. I have always chopped it and then had to change the boxes after a short while to keep them clean. What temperature do they need?

thanks for the pointers this info will be very usefull off to buy a big tub tomorrow now lol

Is substrate good instead of the saw dust ?

Where did you buy locust from? Can you give me the order link? 🙏

I keep getting a few dying after a week or two. I put them in bigger container, have the bug grub and bug balls and put salad in there for them and I get a couple die after a week or two. I got told they need 30 degrees or more to sustain when eating or they'll die. Don't get how can keep them that hot in UK without a heat light or something.

Great help m8

Good

I hate the way he's so aggressive with them but oh well

I feel super sad for the locusts being shaked in the box

Hi, recently got a baby pacman frog and I'm having trouble feeding him locusts, what's the best way to actually get them into the tank instead of just shaking the box trying to get them to hop out

All of myn are on their backs and I don't know why

i have baby Egyptian locust

How many locusts can you keep together roughly? I'm thinking about buying them in bulk online but don't know hiw many to get

Do they need water

Can I breed Locust and that's in container

Mine keep climbing up the sides

In the U.S. they’re EVERYWHERE. So much so that the trade of all locust/grasshoppers has been banned

When you opening a shop then Bro if you do ill help you out

Hi m8

oh its a piercing

No that’s not how you do it

Grassoppers 🤣 I have locusts but you can never any more get the brown migratory species

Screw it, imma catch some grasshoppers (I live in America) and breed em
