In Virginia in the summer we get tons of June bugs, they are a brown beetle. i've tought about feeding them to my cham Herbie but never have.
A few nights ago a huge bettle was flying around my window. he was beautiful. he looking like a giant yellow lady bug. I'm sure Herbie would have...
Check with your vet first to see if it's would be okay to use but I recently used a product called Repti Wound Healing Aid, for a really bad cut on my cham.
It's ingredents are: Jojoba oil ( skin conditioning, healing properties)
8-Quinolinol (An antiseptic with mild fungistatic...
Beta- Carotene is the digestable form of vitamin A for chams. There has been a lot of debate about it's uses from what I can understand. so many multi-vitamins do not carry it.
Herbie has had major health and eye problem all his life. A vet recently suggested he had a vitamin A defeciency...
I don't know Herbie hangs up side down sometimes, He seems to enjoy it. Inever though it being a sign of problems. he will cup his front hands which makes him look like he's praying. :p
Avet suggested to me that Herbie may need to have his sinus passage flushed. She said sometime they get...
I trying to search out new food I can get at the pet store and I know thye offer night crawler. I think it was on this forum that I read one of ya'll feeding your cham red worms. Any ideas on the night crawlers? I've heard of feeding them earth worms. are they pertty much the same thing?
If...
welcome shady's mom, it's goog to have you!!
I've never owned a cham that young. can you tell me about how big he is?.
Rule of thumb is not to feed them anything bigger than their head. that is the only reason I could think of for cutting the head off of worms.
When Herbie was little the...
I don't remember where but I heard calcium crosses out a lot of vitamins when mix. so to get the best from both you are to alternate them when dusting. I think it was in the instructions to the Herp Care vitamins I just bought
Thanks for the Info Brad. When I was looking for solutions for the swelling all I could find was the negative veiws on Vitamin A. Edema ( abnormal Swelling) is a side effect believed side effect of overdose I think thats why the majority of cham Vitamins don't include it. Most don't even have...
Hey Ya'll:
I don't want to get too excited but I think the swelling in Herbies veil is going down. His eyes fluctuate but never his veil :) the mass is becoming softer and you can see wrinkles in it instead of the skin being very tight. His eyes are looking better as well. Over all an...
That is so cool!! I've felt that when holding Herbie(veiled) it was kind of like grunting but it made more of a vibration than a sound. He was half asleep in my hand and I was putting medicine on his cut,
How did you here about that? It's good to have you on Cham Girl :p
The Repti Wound Healing Aid is working great. I strongly recommend it, even for minor scrapes, old scares, lost toe nails, ect.. I'm not big on pet store remedies, but this is all natural so it it all good.
Hey guys
I am 24 and a woman. Right now I'm living in Richmond VA. I Recently Got married and he move back home with me. Poor soul! I am currently trying to get into school. It's been a long vacation :D
Right now I only have Herbie. He is about 3 years old and is a veiled cham.
He is my...
So sorry about your loss. That really stinks. keep you head up though. unfortunitly we all have to take that ride some way. life is so delicate. Just remember it's all about the time we get to spend. hope the kids are okay. Give them a big hug from all of us.
I don't know about breeding chams, only about dogs :o I know that some times people will breed a male pup back to his mom to gain dominant traits. I've never heard of any one breeding siblings. and of course over back breeding can cause deformities in dogs. mostly mental illnesses & over...
I don't know if I have seen the exact same thing but just yesterday when herbie had a B.M. he had what kind of liked like a cork scew peice of left over matter that had not dropped yet. at a quick glance it may look like a worm, with an off white fleshy color. it stayed there over night and...
I pretty sure he's going to be fine. There is no real swelling and he gripping just fine. the first day I could tell it was hurting him. I went to the pet store today and bought some Repti wound healing aid. it has jojobna oil quinolinol? and tea tree oil. just out of curiosity are there and...
