Well, I fractured my ankle and I'll be off of it for about 6-8 weeks now. What to do with poor Apollo? His tank is on the floor behind the table, so it blocks my crutches and earlier I crawled to turn his lights on. My question is, any tips for taking care of my bud? My parents won't help because well, they're terrified of him, and I need some pointers getting his food from point a to point b with my crutches on haha

Possible fanny pack? Just keep some salad in it haha. Sorry about your break! I've had my fair share it makes life a bit challenging. Is there anyway you could have someone lift the tank onto the table or move the table?

Yeah I have a little gym baggie I've been using as a backpack, and luckily I still have mealworm containers so I put the supers in there today and let them get shaken up as I hobbled away. Yay ingenuity!

Oh wow, that really sucks. You need to get a timer for his lights so you don't have to turn them on and off. Maybe a small cricket keeper to store bugs closer to his tank that you can fill every few days so you don't have to struggle every day.

Yeah, funny thing I went to the store Monday and was like "oh I I have some leftover money maybe I should buy him a timer". Aaaand then I walked out, and then yeah...I'll probly stop by and try to buy it tomorrow if I can. His bugs arent a problem anymore though since I have my mealie containers :)
