one of the larvae climed on land. It seems that this species retracts the tail much quicker then others.
And while he was climbing, his brothers hatched

Congrats. How long ago did he hatch?

What is the material you are using in the morphing container?

I like to use easy desposable material for my juv. boxes. This is cotton based sheet used to protect your furniture while moving. It's cheap, easy to work with and holds moisture. I place it on top of a polypropdkfkjd piece which I cut with a hot knife to make it easier to climb upon.
I keep the juv's in a plasic container with air openings. I add leave litter and some shelter. And after a few weeks I place everything in the waste bin and start fresh.
