They are really hard to find. Apperantly they are illegal in the UK because they are a pest. So I guess that counts for the rest of Europe as well. see this thread. Silkworms are available but getting them shipped now, on a saturday night, they would probably arrive on tuesday. Besides that its...

Its a good vet, I trust her completely. I have been to several vets who claimed to be reptile specialised, but they all misdiagnosed or mistreated my animals. This vet has a lot of experience. I think the cat food is just to get some calories in him, such a small dose for two days probably...

I just gave him a little bit of chopped pear (half a teaspoon) and a bit of cat food. hope he holds it down. He ate one cricket yesterday after vomiting a bunch, and I believe he hasn't vomited that one out as well. There seems to be nothing wrong with his appetite (he was a little too fat...

Theres very interesting things in it, and its funny to see how it sometimes...

Hey (not sure if this is the right place to post this) I found a part of Mader's Reptile Medicine and Surgery for free on google books. Its a book about diseases, medicine and anatomy of reptiles. It has a part in it on chameleon necropsy, parasites, husbandry and gout, among other things. It's...
