I was fortunate enough to witness the release of 100+ cray fish today 🦞
Due to the floods we had last year, the Murray river turned to black water. Due to the filthy conditions, these cray fish were leaving the water to find a healthier water source, and so the fisheries rescued as much of them as possible and took them on a holiday to the Narrandera fisheries centre.
Today, their long holiday ended and they were released back into their home waters!

It’s been quite an interesting week full of learning!
One of the best things about working night shifts is you get to find all the road kill when they are still warm!
I found myself this beautiful rabbit and am currently in the process of tanning my first ever animal hide.
I didn't have a defleshing tool, so I scrounged around through my bones and used a carp operculum instead, and it’s done a pretty good job!

If you guys are interested in the process that I am following to tan rabbit hides, check out this YouTube video:

It is with a heavy heart that I must inform you all that Cassie’s Critters will soon be shutting its doors.
We will still occasionally have bones and small numbers of isopods, springtails, snails and stick insects available, but we will no longer have enough for bulk orders nor will we be restocking on accessories and terrarium decorations.
Thank you so much to all of you wonderful people who have supported us during these 6 long years. We could not have come this far of it weren’t for you all!

ALL SOLD

I just stumbled upon this freshly emerged male (Trictena atripalplus). You can tell he is a male by his large, fluffy antennae. Female are thinner and not as filamental.
He will crawl up this iron bark eucalyptus tree to find a safe spot where he will begin pumping and drying his wings.
And then he will begin his life mission of finding a mate. He will have only 24 hours to successfully copulate before perishing.
These guys don’t even emerge from their pupae casings with mouth parts because their only purpose as a moth is reproduction. They do all their eating and growing in the form where they can spend years underground eating the roots of trees.

We have plenty of freshly laid fertilised Extatosoma tiaratum eggs that were laid in January and February2024 .

These eggs are not parthenogenetically fertilised but have been fertilised by a male. This means that nymphs will be a mix of male and female instead of being cloned females.

Bulk prices including express postage and handling:
50-$25
100-$30
200-$35

Not sure how to hatch these eggs? Check out our YouTube video via the link below:

I had a bunch of Extatosoma tiaratum that I was planning to pin, but they were in the freezer for too long and became too brittle to work with. So, the cockroaches got snack.
Nothing goes to waste here 😂

Yesterday I got to witness the fisheries releasing 10,000 Murray cod (Maccullochella peelii) and 30,000 Yellow belly, otherwise known as the golden perch (Macquaria ambigua) into the waters of Lake Boga, in Victoria.
Hopefully a good portion of this population will survive without the pesky European carp and the not so pesky Redfin snacking on them.

Speaking of carp, I will have a bunch of carp operculum’s available soon, so keep an eye out for those.

👻x60 ghost Porcellio laevis 👻

If you want an isopod species that stands out a bit more than the average grey, then these guys just may be what you are looking for!
Just keep in mind that because they are very bright, they cannot camouflage that well, which may be a problem if you are wanting to use them as clean up crew for animals that tend to snack on their janitors.
Porcellio laevis are suitable for sub tropical setups. They don’t require as much moisture compared to Armadillidium vulgare, but will require more than Porcellionides pruinosus.
These guys are also medium protein aggressive.

💰PRICE INCLUDING EXPRESS SHIPPING 💰
20-$25
40-$30
60-$35

Yesterday I stumbled upon these two beautiful female Golden orb weaver spiders (Trichonephila edulis).
The one with the huge abdomen is a mature female, whereas as the smaller one is still a juvenile.
A similar looking species is the Trichonephila plumipes, commonly known as the Sydney golden orb weaver. They can be differentiated by observing the colouration of their legs. T.plumipes have smoother, yellower legs, whereas T.edulis have fluffier legs that are brown.
Males of both species are much smaller compared to the female and are reddish/brown in colouration.

This young female has such a unique colouration. With each moult she seems to get more saturated. I can’t wait to see what she will look like when fully mature!
