When I woke up this morning I was immediately worrying about Toby. I wondered, yet again, if this was the morning I'd find him dead. He's been declining for months, and I'm always worrying about him. I decided today's the day. I dug a little hole under a nice bush near his outdoor cage, or his...

I've had a dubia colony for over 5 years, its super well established and does a great job feeding my handful of pets. The colony is housed in a large topless rubbermaid container with a bunch of egg crate, and I use a hanging ceramic bulb/heater to keep them warm in the winter. I keep the colony...

Yea, the lay box is just a 2 or 3 gallon plastic plant pot so it has big drainage holes. I removed the fungus eggs and each one of them were crinkled on the sides, so I'm betting they were simply duds.

Thanks. I made a new post to answer the specific question of removing the eggs, instead of trying to build on the previous thread about the eggs being laid. I appreciate Kinyonga's reply as much as I do yours :)

Some of the eggs from my panther's recent clutch are yellow and developing what looks like fungus. As mentioned in another post, some of the eggs may have gotten wet from the mist system in the chameleon's cage. Should I remove these fungus eggs? Am I doing something wrong with the...

No, I only blew the dust off with my mouth before laying them in the vermiculite. Although, now that I think of it some of them did fall out of a drainage hole in the lay-box and probably got hit by my mist-king.

Some of the eggs look to be yellowing and have some kind of fungus. Is that fungus a result of something I have/n't done, and should I be worried about it spreading to the other eggs?

How does a fertile egg look different from a non fertile egg?

Hey folks! I've a female and a male panther. Male's over 4 years old, female's right about 2. I've had a really hard time detecting mood changes in the female so I don't normally know when she's about to lay or is receptive to breeding. I've made a few guesses about when to try breeding, but...

@Rst_Cham I’d love to see your cham’s outdoor tree!

It took my boy YEARS to warm up to dubia, but now he takes them regularly. Just keep at it, and don't let their hunger strikes scare you too much.

Fearsome! :)

Woah! I didn't know females could get such color! Can ambilobe females have that sort of color?

Thanks for giving advice, anyway :)

While I was hoping it would be a female, I also think it’s looking to be a male. That tail bump is getting rather large. Thanks for the compliments :) I’m rather attached to the pretty little weirdos! Oh, and they’re all ambilobe.
