Thanks so much Jann! I had the opportunity to rescue a couple chams that really needed the chance and another fell into my lap and I couldn't resist! You know how it goes! I'm prepping for some future breeding projects and an eventual move into a dedicated Cham room. As it stands now, I've run...
Since I haven't been on CF alot during this summer I thought I would post some new pictures of my crew. I have had a loss (RIP Camo), welcomed two new members to my scaley family and have introduced a new set-up to my babies which has helped with humidity and ultimately healthy, regular sheds! I...

It is normal for babies to eat that much every day however I would be careful not to feed him too late in the day as he requires his UVB lamp to help digest the food. If you feed him too close to lights out then the food will sit undigested in his tummy overnight and that could cause problems in...
