Found one (again, walking around my room--I really need to start closing my window). Does anyone want it? If so, how do I keep it alive in the meantime?

Yep. Anyone want it? Otherwise I'm letting it go. I thought I'd ask incase someone wanted to pratice keeping these insects before they move to the harder variety (I forget the latin name, I'm sure someone here knows it)

Diapheromera femorata ? I have several of these. I though they were found more out west, I didnt know they came this far up the north east. I got mine from some one who collected them out west a few years ago. Hes had 6 or more generations, since they dont need to reproduce in order to have babies. There pretty intersting, but i still know very little about them. I would say let the one you caught go free.:)
