Hello friends,
Its been a while since I posted about little Tobias so I thought I'd update you on those pesky Dubias he wouldn't eat!
I had about 9 little fingernail size of them in a Tupperware under his cage for about 4 months. I really couldn't kill them if I tried!!
I remembered I...
*see picks too*

Tobias spends a lot of his time in this vertical position. I noticed he drank a LOT of water, then he went to this spot and got a HUGE belly! Almost looks like a female about to lay!
His backing spot was at 92 (tested digitally and analog) at the branch... Its almost like he is...
I heard tobias climbing on the inside of his cage on the screen (4' cage and not really normal behavior recently), and then I heard a loud thud! I ran to his cage and he was on the floor. I carefully picked him up an inspected him for broken bones, abnormalities. I diddnt see anything, but he...
So I got more superworms to add to my collection yesterday at the store. I went to feed tobias a few tonight and I noticed that some ere very white, and QUITE soft. Then I discovered some exoskeletons in the dirt which I removed and threw away.
I mixed the new with the old, and Ive had the...
I came home from work late today (Lights on a timer and already turned off) and he was sleeping on a vine right in front of the cage door! Usually He sleeps in the corner or the rear of his cage, I HAD to take a pic :)
Well today was a landmark day for little Tobias. I gave him his second shower because he seems to have some stubborn shed on his face that he cant get rid of. The shower went well. He didn't hiss at me, and didn't seem to mind being handled. After the shower I put him back in his cage and he...
I was doing some shopping and I came across these for 2$... Are they safe for chams? I don't know the names and I haven't been able to find info on them.
He has had this little piece of shed that wont quite come off from his eye... Should I give it more time (been about 2 weeks) or attempt to take it off, and risk looking a finger! (getting feisty!)
I came home tonight and saw Tobias... He was 2 different colors! I quickly got my cell out and took a pick. He was his bright sleeping colors on one side, and his darker day color on the other side. I had the light on for about 2 minutes, so maybe he was waking up.
Well as I was attempting to hand feed him with a cup (Worked yesterday!) He got scared and started to climb away on his fake ivy in the top top of his cage by his fixed feeding cup. His little eyes were looking back at me and well... he took a fall, maybe 8-15"! He was able to catch himself on...
:eek:
So I went to feed Tobias tonight and I opened his feeder keeper Tupperware, and discovered a BIG WHITE CRICKET WITH WINGS!!
I'm assuming it's a female, or the Antichrist, or I guess it could be both.
Before Tobias chokes on some flappers, is it cool if I feed it to him?
Well Tobias has been looking a bit large that past few days so I pulled him out from his large cage, and placed him on my mini ficus (VERY ANGRY THIS MORNING!) :(

I haven't seem him do the "thin leaf" look in about 10 days. I've been feeding him...
So I took little Tobias out of his cage today for the first time in about 10 days. Boy are the colors coming in! I got my first series of "hisses" :( Upon further inspection, It appears that Tobias is missing the little claw on the back of his foot! I'm guessing his age is about 6-8 weeks. I...
