    Fiona laid eggs

    My 18 month veiled laid her first clutch of infertal eggs in her laying bin. When should I expect her to lay again? Should I keep a bin in her enclosure at all times from now on? Thanks Zachariah

    Is it normal for chams to eat substrate?

    Adding plant. I added a corn plant or Dracaena plant and it's been 2 days but she's still eating the soil and hasn't touched the plant. I'll try adding other kinds of plants and see if that helps. What variety of plant is most widely accepted to nibble on by Veileds? What seem to be thier...

    Chams in the shower?

    I read on the internet that some keepers put a branch in the shower and let thier chams take a 20 minute warm shower 2 to 3 times a week. Is that safe for the chams to use untreated tap water from the shower? What if they start drinking the water as I'm sure they would? I think that my veiled...

    How big does a laying bin need to be?

    Wow, that's large! A five gallon bucket would take up most of her house:eek:. I'm just trying to figure out how I'm going to fit something like that in her enclosure, with all her climbing tree, branches and vines. But if that's what she needs to be healthy then I will make it happen for her...

    New Plants?

    Once I've selected the plants to put in my chams house, how do I prepare them to go in? Do I need to wash off the leaves and the roots and replant them in new soil that is organic and not full of man made plant growth stuff? I found some Hibiscus, Crotons, and Golden Pothos at Wal-mart but they...
