🪳 New Guide Alert: Loving the unloved (and very hissed-at)

email header block

Hey!

If you’ve been hanging around Sweet Ave Zoo for a while, you know we have a soft spot for the underdogs, the weirdos, and the critters that usually get a bad rap.

And honestly? Nobody gets a worse rep than cockroaches.

Which is why I am so excited to announce the launch of our newest digital download: The Sweet Ave Zoo Madagascar Hissing Cockroach Care Guide! 🌿✨

Whether you’re curious about keeping a small colony, building a bioactive invert setup, or just want to learn more about these gentle, wingless rainforest detritivores, this 10-page guide has you covered.

Inside the guide, you’ll find:

  • Real-world husbandry: Enclosure setups, ideal temperature gradients, and simple humidity tricks.
  • Nutrition basics: Fresh diet rotations, protein needs, and how to safely hydrate nymphs.
  • Vet tech tips: Practical keeper advice (like the classic petroleum jelly trick to stop escape artists in their tracks!).
  • Behavior & handling: Understanding their defensive "hisses," molting signs, and common health troubleshooting.

Written from my perspective as a vet tech and lifelong exotic keeper, it’s designed to be approachable, practical, and full of that usual Sweet Ave Zoo charm, educational, easy to read, and centered on giving your animals the best possible care.

Thank you for being part of a community that learns, laughs, and loves the unloved. Let me know if you end up adding some hissers to your crew!

Better late than never? (Plus: Feets the Tarantula!) 🕷️

  On Wednesdays We Wear Scales  A midweek check-in from your favorite pink-haired reptile nurse. Hey! I have a confession: I completely forgot it was Wednesday yesterday. Between staring at my new ring, trying to remember what day of the week it is post-vacation, and catching up on all the "Zoo Business" I missed while in Asheville, my internal calendar is officially broken. I’m blaming Engagement Brain. But honestly? Sometimes the best schedule is the one that allows for a little chaos. If you’ve ever forgotten to mist your enclosures until 11 PM or realized you’re out of feeder insects on a Sunday night, just know, I am right there with you in the trenches of forgetfulness. Featured Creature: Feets the Curly Hair Speaking of things that are patient with my busy schedule, let’s talk about Feets, my Curly Hair Tarantula (Tliltocatl albopilosus). If you want an animal that won’t hold a grudge when you’re a day late on an update, get a tarantula. Feets is the ultimate low-maint...

The tarantula that started it all... 🕷️💙
