Dsignrguy.... I have never attempted to raise Hornworms. However, I recently had a Hornworm that was way too large to feed my Female Veiled Cham, so I decided to let it pupate. It just emerged out of it's cocoon today!! I was very shocked because I have never tried this before!! It took 26...
I will say one thing... "jdog1027" needs to get his butt in College very soon!! He needs to go to College, get a degree in Zoology and become the foremost expert on Chams!! He obviously has the passion and know-how!! I love that someone has that much passion for Chams, that he makes videos to...
LOL!! That's so cute!! My Female Veiled freaked out the 1st time I gave her a bath!! That 1st bath was because she was shedding & it wasn't coming off very easily. She wasn't sure about it at first, but now... She will just sit in warm water and soak forever!! I usually put her in the...
Great... Thanks for the advice everyone!! We have decided to put him/her in the habitat in a deli cup with moist paper towels, with the lid loose & not sealed. Plus, he/she will be near a heat source. The deli cup is the best option because we're worried about the pin-head crickets bothering...
My very 1st Veiled Cham clutch has started to hatch!! So far, I have 12 new Babies!! It's been a Very Long, Stressful and Exhausting Road... But, they are finally here!! After 7 months, they finally decided to make an appearance!! :)
I do have a Very Important Question for anyone that is...
I was actually just reading postings to learn a little about free range for future reference. Your comment about poop made me laugh!! I'm currently raising just 1 Female Veiled, and she is so good about pooping. :) I would say 90% of the time she poops in the SAME SPOT & I love that about...
I'm probably a little late on giving any advice.... But, I was just going to let you know that you can usually go to a Home Depot or Lowes and purchase Vermiculite. That's where I buy mine... just be sure it's the Vermiculite with NO Chemicals. I prefer Vermiculite over Perlite... I think it...
I have been incubating my Veiled Chams eggs for 114 Days. Today, when I checked on them, I noticed 1 starting to sweat. Then it seemed to turn a yellowish color kind of fast. I opened the deli cup to take a close look and it had a yellowish "goo" coming out of it. It looks like there might...
I agree with BocaJan..... I also want to add that it's best not to sell the babies too young because of disease. I'd rather sell them at about 4 months, maybe longer. When they're in my care... I know they're getting the correct Lighting, Calcium and Vitamin D to ensure they do not develop MDB...
This is my opinion.... My Female Veiled just laid her first Fertile Clutch a couple of days ago. She has laid 2 Infertile Clutches in the past. This will be the first time I've successfully bred a Cham. I'm not a beginner, so I would say I'm experienced, but NOT an expert!! As long as I have...
