To be honest - I'm not sure ... it's not something I've ever heard of being done with larvae. Having said that, and at this time of year, that could simulate an extended cold period and would certainly reduce or illiminate any hunger pangs!padfield wrote:If I can't find it suitable nutrition up here, is an option to stick him in the fridge until next weekend?

Some species are definitely difficult in captivity - but QoS isn't one of them. Then again, I don't think Guy's larva is QoS anywayPaul wrote:I'm sure I read somwhere that QoS larvae are bolshy and often won't eat at all in captivity, but I can't remember where!- could that be a pointer?
