I've been looking for locusts/grasshoppers here in the US but I can't find anything. One forum I was poking about said that they're illegal in the US. Is there anywhere I can find them or am I out of luck?

Unfortunately we can't get locusts as feeders in the US - they are strictly controlled since if they get out in the wild, they can cause agricultural havoc.

Dang, understandable. I guess I'll just stick to dubia and maybe try some hornworms or silks. Thanks.

I just set Swordtail's timer for his bath and paused it so I could actually fill his soaking bowl up and he crawled over my phone and canceled the timer 🤣
Mirage came out of brumation on April 26. He was doing great. On May 2 he started acting funny. We just redid his tank, and he keeps going into one of his hides. He just lays there. He shows no intrest in food. HELP!
is tape safe for fixing something in my leopard geckos hide?
Day 3 of brumation. It's a struggle. I really miss my little guy. 😔
