: : I had a few questions about HL for you

: : 1. What size tank do they need? I personally would give about 2 sq. feet per animal.

: : 2. What should be included in that tank? I use a 50/50 mixture of clean river sand and natrual Top soil. I personally dont like Playsand from my aquatic keeping and its to fine a grain.

: : 3. Do you like anything else but ants? I feed 90% harvesters and 10% of smaller black ants;crickets;mealworms. (I have seen Texas horneds eating the small black ants in the wild so I figured I'd add them, sorry not to sure of the name)

: : 4. Do the species of HL in Arizona vary any from the ones in Cal. and Texas because they look a lot different in the picture. AZ has the mountain horneds( P. d. hernandesi )

: : Thanks James
