I live in upstate NY and was wondering if anyone on here knew of any good vets that handle chams. I feel like I need to take mine to one and don't even know where to start looking since they're kind of hard to find.

I was wondering how long a veiled needs to be kept in a laying bin before she will lay her eggs; hours, days? She's not in any danger of needing to lay I'm just curious for future reference. I've been trying to find some kind of general time frame but can't find anything really.

I've had my female veiled since about the end of February now and haven't had any significant problems with her until the past day or so. I noticed that she has just been kind of hanging out with her eyes closed so I'd check her and make sure she was alright, she'd look at me and go about her...

Her head still looks the same as it did yesterday, should I just let it go and see if it gets worse?

It seems like there could be something in it, it's kind of hard to tell. She doesn't like being held too much and doesn't really let me get my face close to hers lol. I'll be checking it more tomorrow to see how it looks.

I was just feeding Lola some worms and was about to turn off her light when I noticed what looks like a blister on her head. Sorry if the picture is a little fuzzy all I have for a camera right now is my crappy phone and it was hard to get a good angle of her head. There's also some...

I kinda wish that Lola wasn't getting less friendly as she gets older :(

Yeah, she likes to eat haha

I think part of the color inspiration was because it was shortly after I got Lola and I think my girlfriend thought green would be appropriate. :p

Yeah, the walls are like a lime green.

My girlfriend got this pic of Lola yesterday when I had her out of the cage to clean it. I thought it looked pretty sweet.

She's been doing while she's under her basking spot. I figured if she was too hot she'd just move somewhere else? She hasn't been diggin around the base of her tree or anything so I don't think it's eggs.

As of the past couple days Lola has just been hangin around randomly with her mouth open. Is that a she's too hot thing or is it something else?

I don't think all stores are able to/will carry chams. I had to look up and call all the stores within 50 miles of where I live and finally found one like an hour away. Out of the 6 stores I called 4 of them told me to call a store that had sold out and the last one actually had one. From...

Not to sound argumentative but the petsmart I bought my veiled from had a pretty decent setup. There were a lot of branches and leaves and and things for her to climb on and she was so small that I couldn't even find her in there at first! The enclosure also looked to be very moist on the...
