This clutch is actually from the girl from Jose I got that day. I got her over a mild edema and gave her another month to recoup. She showed receptive and Armand was more than willing to do the deed. I'm excited to see what they produce. I got another girl the week after the show from...
27 healthy white jelly beans came out of my panther girl Joan today and she looks no different. I knew she was gravid (Armand will be a daddy again) but I was thinking it must be a small clutch because she gained very little size and ate up till yesterday. Not the case, pretty amazing :)
They do not bite at all. They are however hard to free range as they tend to hide if you have a heavily decorated cage set up. Suck it up and hand feed if your cham will or just cup feed only dubia for 3-4 days till they and the cup look like lunch. Picky chams are usually just over fed their...
@angrychair- I find the use of tomato plants unnecessary to stimulate egg laying. My moths lay several hundred eggs each night with no stimulation at all lol and I bet those plants will just complicate the egg collection process infinitely.
Also from recent (poor) experience I can...

These guys are doing great! See the general photography section-post called shameless picture fest if you would like to see my hold backs :)
They are actually all sold as they are now pushing 6 months old
I gutload with crickets and dubia with ccrack, carrots, kale, col greens, spring mix, occasional bee pollen, bannas and other fruit that's left over. Never anything with animal products so that shouldn't be a prob. And I was going to cut back to LIGHT cal w/o D3 dusting every three days but I'm...
So are some individuals more prone to edema than others you think? I hope this is not a reoccurring problem- will it affect her negatively health wise? Like should I be extra careful with breeding her?
I got a new girl for my ambi boy Armand over the weekend only to have her develop edema the very next day... She looked a little plump along her back legs when I got her but from the size of her head fat pads and knowing she just dropped a clutch I figured it was due to baby weight and over...
It's too bad about Herbie, if I were in the market for another boy I'd take him. He's a nice looking fellow. Jose has ben very helpful to me, like I said in an earlier post he took on most of this clutch. He's selling me two of his ladies...I think he said something about getting out of the...
Blue was the first color to show on my entire clutch of ambis, at around 3 months their reds really started coming in. They change so fast when small, none of them look like they started off. Cute little bugger too :)
