    Jacky is nearly an adult, I got him and a few others over the summer but he is the only one left. They generally live for a year but if looked after well can last a few years. There is nothing really involved in looking after them. Once kept warm and sprayed with mist they do fine. Ours eat ivy and brambles, the hardest part is making sure the plants are free from spiders and insecticides.
