I have a triple digit ducky colony, you need live moss and lime stone. Just saw the part of the video with the enclosure footage, that substrate is not wet enough. duckies like it incredibly swampy, more so than other cubaris. your substrate is also looking a little too uniform, try mixing in larger chunks of rotting wood. also amber ducks need very different care than rubber ducks. They are almost the exact opposite in care, preferring drier substrates and lower ambient humidity. if you were trying to replicate their success with the other duck species, its probably why your colony wasn't doing so well. I now realize this is a pretty old video, if you ever keep them again try live moss and lime stone. keep the substrate uniformly soaked. no excess water should be visible.
i hope to get some duckies in the future, but the price tag and my lack of experience worries me! so while im getting more isopods to work my way up, i really appreciate this comments info!
Eva LOVED the video so much! We are honoured in your trust of us my friend! They’re doing great today and getting a tub with some deep substrate and a while lotta litter!
So very sorry to hear this. It's not easy for sure. It is surprising as more and more people are having success with these. How are the other 'delicate' isopods doing?
Reptiliatus Ha ha so true. That was 60 years ago for me. I made a whole cave and terrain in a concrete glass block. Plants in it. Had to keep it outside (My mom wouldn't let me bring it inside) Fed them pillbugs and whatever I could catch. Let them go when it started getting cold. Heck of a lot different than todays frogs. Ahhh the good old days. (Sorry no emoji for an old cogger) 😂🤣🐸
I use to play with those in the dirt growing up and I would make the go into a ball but I never knew what they were well 40yrs later now I know they are isopods haha
I've had duckies for 4 months bought as juveniles and they aren't breeding at all!!! They don't eat normal foods. They totally ignore fish flakes. Mine lives, but they simply don't breeed!!!
also its too dry in there. they need a moist side but even dry side needs a light misting. itll make the difference. substarte should not be dry at all
I respect you so much for this, purchased 15 duckies today hoping I can pull them off. Maybe you should add limestone and milk one to your enclosure I hear they like to hide in it.
Thanks very much for the kind words! Best part is I received an update that they are doing really great which makes me so happy! Best of luck with your duckies!
We got zebras to start but have been hearing that rubber duckies dont thrive as well as other isopods! This must have been a tough decision props for being able to gift them, idk if i could do this!
4 Dub they are def an experienced level isopod. It’s also painful because they are so expensive to loose 😅😢! Thanks very much, the decision was for the animals best interests!
Jr Mikulec thanks for the love! I understand your concern about the click bait but please try to understand that I’m turning this into my primary source of income and that although the quality of my content is going to stay the same, click bait is an important part of marketing your video to get those views. I like to think that my click bait isn’t necessary over the top most of the time but I’m sorry if this frustrates you/any other of my viewers. Thanks so much for watching!
@@Reptiliatus You know your audience far better than us. I think I echo Jr Mikulec's concerns that it might turn off some people. Good luck with this becoming your primary source of income.
@@Reptiliatus don't worry i think you're fine. That's your personality.You have fun. Everybody has their own style. Also everybody should know that it's not the end of the world. Just trying get people's attention. You want to make your thumbnail interesting. ;) It's all good.
Jesus loves you and died on a cross and rose three days later taking our place and paying our debt (for the wages of sin is death) so you can have eternal life and be forgiven of sin if you repent and pick up your cross and follow him daily

Do you have any tips for panda kings?

Alecia Tee thanks so much my friends! The duckies and I appreciate you dearly! ☺️👍🏼
I eat rubber duckies
tell us your secrets🙏
Awwww..... honestly dayy... you just need deeper substrate, my colony of 10 has finally exploded after 3 months...
cognac yang thanks for the suggestion! I plan to probably get more come March or so
You are so heartwarming. „The Future generation of isopod keepers.“
I love that. Thanks für cheering up my day.. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
This is the cutest thing I’ve ever seen. Wee isopod girlboss. Adorbs.
Maybe they need an actual rubber ducky in their set up lol 🦆
LORD ELION lol maybe my man, maybe 😂...
Awesome that you put your animals before you, that is true love
Carol McCorry Always. Thanks so much!
So cute! You made her so happy!
Curt Hatt thanks! Giving always feels better than receiving ☺️👍🏼

Awww lucky girl. 😍😍😍 All I had to play with when I was a kid were toads & and plain old pill bugs. 😂🤣🐜🦗🐛🐞
sweetbee52 we enjoyed what we had! These are exciting times! The new generation of exotic animal keepers! ☺️👍🏼

Have fun Eva!! 🤎
No disappointments here. You’ve got so much going on right now.
Linda Klann thanks for your understanding! I’m confident Alecia and Eva are doing great things with them! I’ve been getting great updates
I've had duckies for 4 months bought as juveniles and they aren't breeding at all!!!
They don't eat normal foods. They totally ignore fish flakes.
Mine lives, but they simply don't breeed!!!
They have a room just for a gecko? Wow
Great Video
also its too dry in there. they need a moist side but even dry side needs a light misting. itll make the difference. substarte should not be dry at all

Hey! I know I’m late but I was wondering how your duckies are doing now.
Mine are reproducing like crazy I went to 15 to around 50 rubber duckies in less then 5 months.
@@KFInvertebrates what's the secret I want to get some soon just picked up some lime stone
I’m sorry - I know it’s a serious video- but every time you say rubber ducky... or ducky 😂😂😂
Amber, Jupiter, and Lemon Blue are all significantly easier to keep and more forgiving if you try them again
Did you try limestone in your ducky colony?
We got zebras to start but have been hearing that rubber duckies dont thrive as well as other isopods! This must have been a tough decision props for being able to gift them, idk if i could do this!

Definitely drier than I keep mine... But I've had my ups and downs as well!
Nice video dude
cubaris need rotten wood bro, the more the better !
As long as it wasn't a stroke ;)
I would put them in a smaller container till you have a bigger colony
How are they now?
I checked in with her and they are thriving! Might be receiving a few in several months if she can spare some! Happy I made the decision ☺️
I love your videos, but please tone down the clickbait.
I'm kinda feeling this too lately. It's all about info in my mind but maybe this works for him.
