Coming soon! First expo of the new year at the Toronto Reptile Expo! Have you ever been interested in working with invertebrates? We're happy to help! We work with many different invertebrate species from Land Snails and Slugs to Millipedes and Isopods and more! You may find niche species you seldom see elsewhere in the Canadian hobby! I hope to see you all on January 18th at the International Centre!

New to the species I keep, the 2nd Cave Cricket species I'm working with! The Square-Legged Cave Cricket (Tropidischia xanthostoma), the largest species of Cave Cricket and also native to Canada! Have a single adult female and a few mixed nymphs, female may be gravid so only time will tell! I'll have a nymph male/female pair on display in January!

Velvet Wedge Snails are all grown up! Unfortunately only one CB individual made it to adult hood but not all is lost for this species in Captivity! They are absolutely gorgeous snails sporting hair like fibres along their shells and purplish gray colored skin! Easily one of my favorite Ontario native species!

Leopard Slug babies are doing well! They will be available starting in January! Thankfully we got eggs earlier in the year than last year so they'll be more established for the winter expo season!

First bulk update! Some brief updates on several species we are currently working with here!

Photo 1. Traveling Cherry Millipedes! Pleuroloma flavipes, they're the first cyanide species I've actively had success with showing active signs of growth and natural behavior, so here's hoping to see some breeding results when they mature in several months!

Photo 2. The first! And currently only, Captive Bred Dished Threetooth! I may have figured out some information regarding them, I believe they may be egg cannibals, and that's why I haven't seen any of their babies in over a year of keeping mature individuals with documented breeding.

Photo 3. We are finally working with Lancetooths! Specifically the Robust Lancetooth native to BC! One of our few, native predatory snails talked about in our previous post!

Photo 4. Candlesnuff Fungus! Our first active culture of a fungus species! Still in the working stages still, but! The fungus seems to be able to propagate like a plant and is taking to my Flake Soil recipe like no tomorrow! Not a particularly edible species but adds to a woodland esthetic!
