Okay. :) I’ve got plenty of them.

That’s really odd to me. Seems the basking temp should be too hot if anything. What is the distance between the light and where the thermometer is? Have you tried a different thermometer?

I too have noticed with mine that many have what appears to be stuck shed, but it’s not like normal. It’s very hard and dark brown, ending in an almost black tip. On some of the larger silkies I’ve gently removed it and while it does come off, it seems like a string of black slime and liquid...

Silkies have basically no immune system, so it takes almost nothing to kill them. There are certain viruses and such that they get - flacherie, grasserie, pebrine. For the longest time, I’ve had pretty good luck raising them from egg to moth. Lately though, just as they are getting big enough to...

That’s really odd that your basing temp isn’t higher with that bulb. Is it sitting on top of the enclosure? What are you using to measure the temps? What is the temp of the room?

What kind of basking bulb are you using? Is it like a regular light bulb or a special reptile bulb?

We generally want taller and deeper, but I believe the extra width may compensate, along with taking him out for free range kind of time. You could make him a free range area in the house too, for some spacious exploring time. Oh yes! They are much quicker than you would ever imagine when they...

Yay poop! 🥳

Rest easy now, sassy Neptune. I said it on your other post that there is no doubt at all that he was well loved and cared for and must have had some incredible life with you to make it to such an old old age for a veiled. I hope that gives you some comfort to have given him such a long amazing...

Ok, so yeah it does look kind of like there may be something beneath it. You could try to gently lift the edge and see if it comes off. It may not yet be ready though, so just wait and keep an eye on it. I don’t know if pics of my girl’s thing will help at all, but here. Even though she had a...

Are the crickets the right size? Are they maybe too big for him still, or maybe he’s grown and they’re now too small? Are there any other tiny feeders that you can get for him? I know some are limited by law, like hornworms, but I’ll attach the feeder graphic for you. I would think that...

Hi. Is it just that round area? The pic is blurry so I can’t see well. If you look closely, is there any sign of any problem with his scales there? Maybe a wound, scar or something else? I ask only because of the round shape, which I’ve found has occurred on one of mine who has had small growths...

Hi and welcome! :) Galileo is quite a handsome guy. Your enclosure for him looks great! What are the measurements though? What type of uvb are you using? How often are you taking him outside? Do be careful that he can’t climb out of reach and never ever leave him unattended. Not only are chams...

Beautiful! I love the blues of Ambanjas…one of my favorite locales. 💗

I’ve learned to keep a lid on their bins. Lol Once had cocoons stuck on the wall and other places in a closet and the male moths are insane and will travel quite a bit if not confined. I was unaware that some eggs may be ready to hatch soon after being laid. But, I don’t refrigerate them until...

Yay! Congrats on your new baby! 🥳 Already he’s looking to be a stunner! Enjoy your little sweetheart and watching him explore his awesome new home. 💗

This can be a messy time for them between food, poop and purging themselves right before cocooning. Make sure to have plenty of air flow and space for them or mold can develop. Keeping them clean can be a challenge though. I use chow and will provide small amounts of food until it’s very...

Just taken this morning. What a huge difference!

Thankfully I believe she has completed her attempts to give me even more grey hair than I have. I’m taking great pains to ensure she never sees my male ever again. Her little body gave everything in the production of those eggs and left her a saggy bag of bones. She’s fleshing back out nicely...
