Orntithoctoninae sp vietnam silver. Given the right environment ornithoctoninae species can be much more active than just a “pet hole”. It’s nice to see her out and about. I’m really hoping this amazing girl has some babies soon! 🤞

Picked up the first pair of oligodon octolineatus today! I’m really looking forward to working with this species of oligodon and hopefully next year I can offer some CBB specimens!

Happy new year everyone! I hope everyone had a great new years ever and made it home safely! I just want to thank you guys for an amazing year and for all of your support along the way! I’m very much so looking forward to another year of captive breeding efforts and working with all of you. I have a ton of new stuff in the works for the new year, both invertebrate and vertebrate related so stay tuned 😁 here’s a preview of a cb project I’m working on that I’m hoping will come to fruition soon. I have many more surprise projects going on and will keep you guys posted 😉 again a sincere Thank you from Devin at InVERTed Dreams 🤘

Fun fact for all of you aspiring breeders out there! Babies need water too 😁 these little Poecilotheria Striata are about to molt which is the perfect time to give them a drink to help smooth the process. A fine mist on the webbing I find to work the best. Spray carefully though. Droplets too large can easily kill them.

Poecilotheria striata slings! This is one of my favorite poecilotheria and I’m very thankful to have had success with this sac. Merry Christmas from InVERTed Dreams and poecilotheria striata!! 😍

Hello everyone! Happy holiday season from InVERTed Dreams! Now that Halloween has passed, it’s time for the annual Christmas post! Every year many animals are bought on an impulse and given as Christmas gifts, and every year many of those animals (while mostly given with good intentions) become victims of neglect or end up having to be rehomed, or otherwise put into a bad situation because the recipient was not prepared to take care of their new pet. Remember, when purchasing a new pet for yourself or someone else that there’s a lot of costs involved in caring for that animal properly. Heating, food, housing, vet care, enrichment, not to mention time spent on care, all of these things will continue to cost money and time over the animals lifetime. In conjunction with financial ability to care for, knowledge about the animal you are keeping is just as important to providing it what it needs to THRIVE rather than just survive in captivity. This knowledge should always be obtained before acquiring any animal through research or reaching out to a fellow hobbyist or breeder-something that cannot be done beforehand with a surprise Christmas gift.

Here’s a few things I always recommend people ask themselves before you buy an animal for you or someone else 😁

- can you afford to take the animal to an emergency vet if needed?

-can you afford to care for this animal for a minimum period of a few months if you were to lose your job or otherwise come into financial hardship?

- have you done your research on where it comes from, the climate there, what it eats, and common problems that may or may not arise with this particular animal?

-can you afford the upfront and maintenance cost of this animal and everything it needs throughout its lifetime without being put into financial hardship?

-do you have time or the desire to care for this animal now and until the end of its life or time with you? You may want it now, but are you going to still want it in a few months? (this is a big one)

Enjoy the holiday season everyone and thank you for an awesome year! 🤩

Quick update on this little guy. Irwin is becoming a confident little crocodilian! When he first arrived he wouldn’t eat when I was around and he was pretty shy. He has come a long way

Interesting observation. I had a couple of bins in the building with a small population of grain mites and a couple with a handful of gnats. I chose to treat them with a variety of predatory mite species instead of any chemical treatments or mass cleanings. I have watched this colony of predatory mites move systematically through each enclosure, devouring any grain mites or gnat larvae they come into contact with, then they migrate to the enclosure next door when the food is gone. Not just the roach and pod bins, but they have moved through every single enclosure in the building. Spiders, snakes, scorpions, millipedes, geckos, pods, roaches, everything. The only negative effect that I have observed is that they will also consume smaller springtails. Each enclosure finished up with about 1/2 of the springtails it had when the mites first arrived. that being said, I’m willing to pay the price of a couple springtails for the quality of pest control these little mites provided! Definitely something to try if you’ve been curious.
