I live in Thailand, caught a lamplighter. She was sitting in a tree. How should I feed her, what plants should I bring, and how much does she eat? Plants should grow, or can you bring fresh leaves like caterpillars?

How do I find information about aphid content? : )

She is still sitting in a latticed bread box, but there is not enough space, then I want to transfer her to a mosquito netting cage.
Any advice on content will be greatly appreciated.

I'll post the photo later

I read that they suck the sap of trees. So do I need to break off a branch of that tree or pick at the bark?

Release the animal! That's not how things work. First, they find out everything about the content, and only then they catch it. Otherwise, it's knacker's work.

there is no information about the content anywhere. Those who start messing around with new animals are always difficult. As far as I know, no one was involved in their breeding and maintenance. I searched for articles in English as well.


I cut the bark from the tree where they graze. I saw 5 more pieces there.
I cut more bark from other trees, because it's very tough. I'll look for a similar tree in flower shops.

I bought a coconut ( well, you never know) and tomorrow I will go for fresh cane.

What I cut, put in water, so that it does not dry quickly. Not eating yet.

Someone kept tree-sucking insects? how can I replace tree sap?
