Thanks...no need to be sorry , though. They were from two different sources. One, captive raised for many generations by local hobbist, I've had for two months or so. The other source is wild caught crays I've had a month or so. I lost crays from both batches. The funny thing is that while I lost a ...

Frustration
Anyone have any ideas on what would make me lose four cajun dwarfs in two days and have a female lay eggs on the third? :x Last time I had these guys, I got bored with them, they were so easy. This time, I feel like the most rank of amateurs.... At least I have the egged-up fem. Alright, I'm done ve...

I've had that exp breeding these guys before, losing some eggs during the process of incubation. I was never able to see the color change before, however. A look at the female and the few remaining eggs during lunch break has me thinking that NONE of the eggs were fertile. They've had a couple of ro...

Color change in cray eggs
I was just going to pm YuccaPatrol, but this is info some of you might be able to use. I'm having some trouble breeding my most recent batch of cajun dwarfs. No biggie, since in one case the loss of eggs was obviously due to overcrowding. In the second case, a female berried up in the middle of my m...

Doing absolutely NO research into this before responding, I do know that arthropods re-absorb some of the non-chitin inclusions to their exoskeletons in the time before a molt, so I would think that appearance of - and even a chemical assay of - the molt itself wouldn't give a complete picture of wh...

Good news, and not too terribly surprising. Many species with very isolated distributions actually prefer different conditions from those in which they are found; they just aren't successful when in competition with other species in conditions under which they would otherwise thrive. A good example ...
