    Feeding grasshoppers

    yes i've heard about that, i found it in my yard, but they actually come from several empty terrains around my house, which have no chemicals or anything, I don't think my frontyard has any either but I'll ask thanks.

    Feeding grasshoppers

    Opening his mouth alot

    hi, I'm using a diigital termometer used commonly for cars so it has an interior, exterior messurment, and I placed the sensor hanging from the top near the basking spot. He just recently stopped, if he does it again I will at least angle the bulb, thanks

    Drinking

    I didn't know they popped them to clean them , I guess he's doing fine then, his eyes are ok, and didn't show any yellow in the last dropping I found, thanks for clearing the whole eye thing up for me.

    Drinking

    My little veiled doesn't appreciate misting all that much either, i've had him for only a couple of days ,but I think this last time I misted him, he just sat there closed his eyes and opened his mouth about three times, I guess it's progress.. better than getting a panic attack and running away...

    Feeding Cup Issues

    I think I once read that at this age mealworms weren't a very good option, but don't really trust me on this one, let's better wait for some of the really experienced guys, I'm a new baby veiled owner myself. I haven't used free ranging crickets because I'm afraid they are too little and steve...

    Hi, how about a cage check?

    thank you on the feed back, and I'll analyze the food/basking thing, I put it there for the moment because even if it is not completely transparent, steve was trying to shoot the crickets from below... and when it is not transparent he has a hard time finding the food, so I tried to make it very...

    Feeding a baby

    haha thank you guys, I would have showed much more enthusiasm in the first post but I was in a hurry, he is very small, I'm guessing that's kind of normal, but I do see him eating small sized crickets..(the ant sized ones i've got do strike me as very small) I'll get some today. I will post pics...
