    My new Male Veiled

    The eyes just look like that because of the photo. He is 18 months old and is a proven breeder. He was $100.00 and worth every penny. When I saw him I knew I had to have him. I was surprised he was still there. As soon as I held him up a whole crowd appeared out of nowhere commenting and...

    Mom works very hard, new eggs!

    I'm incubating them in a plastic tub and lid with a mix of peat and vermiculite. I haven't had a chance to take a photo yet, but I misted them just a little while ago thinking the same theory that you suggested. I will check the humidity and eggs again in the morning to check their progress...

    Mom works very hard, new eggs!

    A month and a half ago I bought a female veiled, approximately two years old, which came from a rescue. Apparently she was in a bad situation (we've all heard of them before). I have been spoiling her rotten with everything she needs. She is the sweetest veiled I've come across. Every time I...

    Roach Substrate

    It all depends on whether you want to just raise them and/or have them on display. I have a huge colony of hisser's and discoid's. My hisser colony has coconut fiber as a substrate (not too much) and for the discoid's I use dried oak leaves with cork bark stacked vertically like you use crating...

    Big boy cages !!!

    Yes, don't cut any of the thicker roots, they are the lifeline. One of the secrets of bonsais is the trimming of the roots, hence they stay smaller. Hisbiscus have a lot of roots and they are a great source of greens for your veiled. Mine even likes to munch on the flowers. Why should I care...

    Big boy cages !!!

    Both of your chams are beautiful! As far as the plants go, I agree more green. I used to keep bonsai's. If you repot your hibiscus, you can cut the roots back some(they have alot) so that you can put it in a smaller pot. Don't cut off too much though, they will go into shock. The cages look...

    Best cricket supplier?

    Thanks for the suggestions everyone, I will check them out. I want to make sure they're clean and healthy before I get them and then I can gutload before feeding to the growing youngsters.

    Best size enclosure?

    I need a second opinion if you would please. I received three young veiled's yesterday, 2 males, 1 female, all 8 weeks old. I'm thinking of moving one male to a separate enclosure because he is slightly bigger and dominant. Here's the question of which enclosure to move him too; A) A ten...
