    humidity/dehydration

    His urates are white and he eats just fine. The only problem I see is that he doesn't completely shed his body, he's shedding small patches at a time and there are flakes of skin attached too him too. I assumed it was probably the humidity, or could something else cause this? Also JaclynCali...

    I understand. I'm a 2nd year vet student and I was just going off of the guidelines of our head exotics vet at our teaching hospital. Thats just what he recommends

    humidity/dehydration

    I've only seen him lick his lips from time to time. I'll try increasing the mist times. I wish the water from the mist system was warmer for him, he doesn't like the cool mist at all. Do you think a submersible aquarium heater in the bucket reservoir help to increase the temp of the mist? I'm...

    Not getting enough D3???

    I know this is a late reply to the subject but a reptisun 5.0 bulb is all you need for D3. calcium only supplementation is all that is needed for supplements too. I've raised a veiled cham from baby to adult with absolutely no D3 supplementation and he has a very healthy bone structure. D3...

    silkworm breeding

    Does the chow get really expensive over time? like would it even be worth breeding them if you're using chow vs. just buying live worms?

    silkworm breeding

    Hey everyone, I was thinking of breeding silkworms and had questions about the mulberry tree. I only have one chameleon to feed so I wouldn't need too many worms at a time, but I was wondering just how many trees would need to be kept to sustain a population of silkworms for one reptile...

    What to feed

    My chameleon is starting to eat less of his food. I give him dubia roaches, and crickets all the time with the occasional super worm. I was wondering what other insects I could try feeding him. I'd really like to keep dubia as the staple diet and I don't want him getting hooked on anything...

    Dubia colony noob

    is it even worth starting a colony if I only have one reptile to feed? I really want to be able to keep population numbers down to a reasonable level.

    Dubia colony noob

    Hey everyone, I currently only have one chameleon and I was thinking of starting a dubia colony to save some money. He will not eat crickets anymore and I can't afford to buy roaches constantly. One concern I have is trying to maintain the number of roaches in the colony since I only have one...
