are black crickets a no no because they are biters or for some other reason?

i wouldn't be too hard on yourself Chris, those photos seems pretty good to me. looks kinda like a baby dinosaur or something, very cool

very interesting question, im not sure of the answer either. i would have to say first off that unless these insects are gathered from insecticide free areas it would be a no. fertilizer is also probably a no. however, im no expert so hopefully someone more knowledgeable will have something to say

that sounds good to me, i dont think you need to feed 20 silkies tho, they have more calories than crickets so that something to keep in mind. experiment and see how it goes.

definitely need a picture

i think it would be beneficial to keep trying new things. what else can you tell me about the husbandry?

well it sounds like he is on a hunger strike. what are you feeding him? if you are feeding him crickets or roaches try switching to wax worms or silk worms. give him something different to eat and see if gets interested in new tasty food

i would have to say that it might be a combination of stress and maybe temps being too low. we will need more information to answer correctly. but from just what you have said that would be my first guess

i asked around and the district manager rarely comes through the store i work at so i took the water bowl out anyway and added a drip system. thats all i can do for now :(

really good lookin little fella

i work at petco and at our store we have 4 baby veiled chams housed together, with a water bowl, in a glass enclosure thats maybe 5 gallons. i talked to the manager about these conditions and they tell me that its store policy and that they will get in trouble if the husbandry changes.

just out of curiosity, how many animals do you currently have in your nice new room?

duh... i looked at his picture and didn't realize it was him

Romeo a little angry
