[QUOTE="kormath, post: 89243, member: 4199"] I gave up on the kenyans, they are awesome feeders but i couldn't get them to breed at all. I had them in a smaller sterlite container, made a substrate bed for them by cutting the bottom out of a tupperware container that fit quite well in the end of the Sterlite, then hot glued a cardboard "floor" next to that to fill the rest of the container up so it was level with the substrate and they didn't need to climb into it. Started with about 20 kenyans after feeding the other half off. From what i read they should have matured and used the substrate to dig birthing chambers, but they never used it that i could tell, never went near it. I started finding them dead so fed the remaining ones to my slings and went back to using lats and dubia pieces to feed the smallest slings. [/QUOTE]
