Here's a wonderful thing I apparently, but if it comes to that..
Next week I'll be trying to catch Dolbinku Elegans again for a couple of nights. This time I want to catch one and leave it at least (if I catch it at all) alive to breed rolleyes.gif
So please tell me how you can distinguish the female (assumptions at least) and what can eat caterpillars? Presumably, the diet of dolbins is similar to that of Smertintus ozzelatus.. or other types of chisels. If the boa constrictor is diluted, it will be an excellent material for exchange smile.gifand a greater number of candidates for survival in nature smile.gif

Females can be distinguished from males by the antennae (in females it is thinner), by the abdomen.
