No comments on the guy's opinions about bacteria and his rationale other than seems a bit off considering nearly everyone else in the world is misting or dripping to provide water.
But as for will they learn to drink from bowls- many (most?) veileds and panthers will learn over time if a drip...
Yeah I'm sure they aren't doing anything new, only feeding a highly nutritious food for life and then calling the resulting insects by a name for their brand.
:D Thamnobates! Thanks for asking!
Mine are doing great. First female to breed is now pretty big/fat. I just bred my second female to...
Hadn't seen this before.
90 day feeding trial near the end of the video with groups of bearded dragon hatchlings fed dusted insects vs vitabugs + calciworms vs gutloaded only insects.
Wasn't aware that vitabugs were sort of designed to be used alongside calciworms (calciworms 2x per week...
Kind of depends.
On how much vegetation is available, how much ambient humidity, how much heat, how much cool, how often it rains, how often it dews. The main idea being if they have plenty of shade as well as some sunlight, and it a thunderstorm every few days, they will need less than if they...
I use rinds pretty often for all kinds of feeders (roaches, mealworms, crickets, soldier flies). Should be fine. Have no idea about nutritional content, and can make insects "wet" for a day or two after the rinds are eaten(meaning if you put 100 in a cup to coat with calcium and then count them...
Taken recently. Just thought I'd toss these out there for fun.
A couple of my male ambilobes:

Just a little update
Just a little update-
Today I put this lizard in with my largest male (a different male than the previous) and copulation was successful. She behaved in a receptive manner and the male courted her immediately in spite of her interesting coloration.
So appears she's a...
No I don't have earlier pictures unfortunately. One final thing though- all of last year and some of this year this animal had the tan coloration of a female- the only difference was a bit of red appeared around the eyes for several months, then this year we got these colorations like in the...
Here is a strange one! I bought this girl at the end of 2013 as a small juvenile from a forum member. Sold as a female ambilobe.
This chameleon is built like a female- in person s/he is really wide abdominally like a female, never grew to male size, but is largish female sized. No evidence of...
Nope.
Just personal situation at the moment though. (No longer have a "cold room" available to me.)
Plus I'm always messing about with trying different things. I had a seasonal with the final months having a day'night fluctuation in addition to the cool season prior, and that was my fastest...
making pinhead crickets is pretty cheap and easy for a clutch of quads. Many walmarts have buckets of 50 adult crickets for 2 or 3 dollars this time of year, and that is enough to make more than enough pinheads for those baby quads.
Melanogaster are fine (hydei too).
you can make a surprising...
I'm not sure about the answers to your questions but I would not be surprised if wild panthers do not dig as deeply as captives, because of environmental factors (things like stones, roots which they often seem to prefer digging near in captivity anyway, maybe soil conditions (dry sometimes and...
it is one of the species of gecko commonly known as a house gecko. There are 2 or 3 species, all very similar in habit, and all world travelers. We have some in a city about 30 minutes from me which is not tropical at all (snows and temps get in the single digits and less). These geckos have...
he's got a subcutaneous worm on his side there that needs to be removed. Probably more than one. But at least one big one is clearly visible in your photo.
Hey I've bumped, dropped, totally mixed eggs and substrate many times over the years at many stages of incubation. It always ended up fine even if I had no clue which side was supposed to be up- didn't effect my hatch rate at all. The shock was always worse on me than on the eggs.I'd say just...
The babies should be alright, but eggs in and of themselves are no guarantee.
With poultry, things can get passed through the eggs from the mother at different stages. Many years ago my father was one of the pioneers who figured out how to solve that problem so the still young turkey industry...
