i recently put a schefflera in thalamus' cage and so far she seems to like it! it has a bit of nibble marks but its too thick for her to completely chew off. she had a bit of edema in the neck before but it seemed to go down, and now shes going through a shed! :) this may i want to buy her a...
oh no! im very saddened to hear about molly :( she was one tough cookie and you definitely gave her a great life after her rescue. you did all that you could and shes very lucky that you were her owner :)
i had a mister lizard jr or whatever its called and it did the same to me also. i took the whole thing apart when i cleaned it to remove the oil and since i didnt replace any oil for lubrication (ive been using mineral oil now), water leaked into the pump and it started rusting. the insecticide...
i dont know a definite answer, but that usually happens sometimes with my silkworms. maybe they stop halfway into it because they started their cocoons too late and instinctively pupated before they finish. sometimes if they dont have decent small spaces to form their cocoons it takes longer for...
yeah sometimes when my silkies dump their gut when theyre ready to cocoon theres some white frass or liquid in it. hopefully thats whats going on with some of them, but if some are getting black and stinky its probably not good. good luck!
what if the water was filtered and left to sit for 24 hours, would that be ok?
ive actually noticed a major decrease of yellowing in my tubing and water holding containers after i started filtering the water. with just plain tap, my containers would yellow within a week. but maybe theres...
i feed her 4-5 medium to large size crickets every other day or two superworms. but i just started feeding her every other day a week ago.
i use tap water thats filtered through a brita pitcher. i clean that and her mister every now and then when it gets cloudy. ill clean it more and see if...
beautiful chams! what an embarassing time for that female panther to mate. sometimes you never know when romance will happen...even when in the middle of a shed! :P
her edema seems to have gone down. i started feeding her every other day and give her calcium without D3 every other feeding. that should cut back on her supplementing. I also haven't seen her gaping for a week and her temps are the same. perhaps they were related in some way.
she has been...
im pretty sure that thalamus has a bit of gular edema. could that be related at all to her open mouth? (https://www.chameleonforums.com/open-mouth-under-uv-light-36452/) ill try to get a picture of it tomorrow, because shes sleeping now. she still only opens her mouth rarely during the day. i...
i caught my crazy veiled thalamus doing this twice so far. while in the process of pooping, she sees it dangling below her and tries to shoot her tongue out to eat it. before she did though, i shook her cage to get her attention so she would stop. thats disgusting! have any of your chams tried...
oooh nice! did you get overnight delivery though? i think ill probably wait until all these snowstorms are over so they dont get delayed. i hope thalamus can wait until then :P
maybe hes a tranny cham? :P
my male veiled was rather small too and didnt get as large as he should have before he died. but he did show stripes from the moment i first held him as a 1-2 month old. when i first got my female i couldnt tell if she had spurs or not since she did have very tiny...
