    Receptive veiled female

    Thank you. Since she is receptive is it a for sure she is producing a clutch or could it maybe not amount to anything . Will of course keep an eye on her weight.

    3 days later she went on every other day with 3-5 med crickets dusted per feeding or silkworms. She stayed at 78g for months then after a recent shed has been at 88g for at least last 2 months. She seems always hungry. Temp kept low 80s too with a thermostat for 60w incandescent bulb. She was...

    Receptive veiled female

    Do all receptive veiled females go through egg laying or with reduced diet can this be controlled? My female is receptive for second time after having a clutch 5 months ago. She has been on restrictive diet ever since as her clutch was large. Not sure if receptive always equals eggs.

    Tutorial: How to handle and tame a chameleon

    Handling.

    I like the podcast on taming your chameleon by Bill Strand. It is episode 85. Not sure how to post the link. I found out in that episode that it is a great success if my chameleon will come out on one of my hands and eat out of the other hand. Etosha will do that so I feel I am doing better...
