I know its unlikely, BUT do any of you here own Pet Shops at all? I ask because I need screen cages , here in the UK all we can get are the Exo Terra flexariums and this I DONT want. I'm just wondering if anyone can give me an idea about costs including shipping? Someone said the word "Zilla...

You wont find many places here in the UK that can make you a window screen Phil. I know I have tried.I wanted several to construct an all screen enclosure. A lot of UK keepers, myself included use the glass doored vivs with no ill effects at all. The only full screen cages I have are for the...

The common passiflora is toxic?Are we talking about the same species I ask as the fruits are used to make wine and i also use it as a feeder for my locusts and havent had a fatality in either feeder insects or Chams during the past 4 years of use.I know there are several species of passiflora...

Hi Emma, I think I have used every livefood supplier here in the UK over the years!! I can give you the good, bad and the ugly by PM if you'd like.As for silkworms, there seems to be only 2 outlets for them here, ones pretty bad at delivering and the others worse.For some bizzare reason Curly...

Thankyou for the info,,We dont seem to get too much in the Exotic range here in the UK. I use a lot of passion flowers in my set ups- not exactly a Madagascan plant but it looks good and grows well.Orchids are quite expensive here and as I tend to use Locusts as my main food item, I think I'd...

Bless you for asking this question! I spent over 2 hours last night looking for the plants that are native to Mount Meru. the information is not easily come by.You can find a zillion sites showing tours, safaris etc of Tanzania, and they all mention the animals but not the plants !. So far I...

THIS is my hobby-- Keith Richards, the love of my life since I were 10 years old!! Love Tawny

Hi, I "know" you from the LF forum.If I wereyou Id take the eggs out- carefully and incubate them in vermiculite.I had some Brevs that laid without my knowledge in the vivarium, I only knew when I saw some tiny babies in the foilage, I dont know how long they had been there before I saw them as...

HI Trace,Thanks for the help with the pics I do have a lot of the babies but most are too big to post and Im rubbish at resizing etc! The 1st clutch took 10 months in total to hatch, 10 months to the day from laying to hatch, the 2nd clutch took 9 months 18 days. I did make an interesting...

baby carpet the pic didnt work for last post- sorry. love Tawny

HI again, Sorry for not responding to replies of late, I have been very busy . Latest update is now 15 hatchling carpets from 2 clutches and 1 clutch still to hatch.What has suprised me the most- apart from the fact I have been incredibly lucky- is the incredible size differences between...

I took this photo of one of the Carpet hatchlings, I have also tried to contactthe breeder of the parents to get confirmation of the species Major or Minor? Both parents are small barely four inches body length, whatever they are I dont mind a bit, Ive waited 10 months for this first laid...

Hi Kent , When I bought these I did enquire as to the species ie Major or Minor, I was told and always beleived them to be Minors due to the overall size of the adults and colouration compared to Majors, That Karen here in the UK has Majors as when the Chams were growing we often compared the...

Thankyou all Thanks so much for the advice where to seek help, its much appreciated. When I last looked in the hatching tub at 7.30 pm, I have another hatchling which has his head out so he will be out and about tomorrrow I hope.From this clutch I have a further 7 that are looking as if they...

Hi, I haven't been here in an age so I know how cheeky it is for me to ask for help now. BUT I really do need it. I keep Carpet Chameleons,F.lateralis. My first clutch of eggs laid 2/4/07 have started to hatch this morning, so far 2 perfect neonates have emerged BUT one baby was born fully...

Hi Darren, As like me your'e from the Uk- buying locusts in bulk from a Livefood supplier isnt a problem. When mine arrive I tip them into an empty well lidded plastic tank containing egg crate for perching. I then gut load them on any green leafy vegetable- like spring greens or savoy cabbage...

Hi, I'm Tawny from Cumbria UK. I keep several reptiles but I am hoping to specialise in Chameleons. This year I sucsessfully bred my Pygmy Chams which has resulted in 33 hatclings- all tiny and adorable. I have a Yemens named Loki, a Panther called Akiki coming shortly will be Dougal and...
