Thanks everyone! Yes, that's a laser pointer.

That's too cute!

I sparingly place a UVB, non heat emitting light on top of our pygmy enclosure for a 3-4 hours every couple of weeks. It is mainly just to keep the vines alive in the enclosure. I have noticed no basking behaviors. One of the females tends to hide herself close to the ground and totally...

Curiosity got the best of me. I can't wait for this little one to arrive!

I have pygmy chams and use an ExoTerra Monsoon mist system to keep the cage humidity up as well as a water source. I absolutely love it! The spray is a very fine mist, not a blast of water. I have one girl that likes to sit right in front of it and wait to be sprayed. It has a good size...

I line my cricket containers with a strip of packing tape around the top. It makes the surface too slick for the crickets to grasp and climb.

How cool! None of mine will eat out my hand or a cup.

I have no idea how common different size eggs are, but I experienced the same mystery. The size differences were obvious from the first two clutches. One clutch was much larger and rounded. We actually saw the 3rd female lay this evening. Her eggs were more in line with the tic tac size we saw...

Yay - that's awesome!

Looks like we have an additional set of eggs laid yesterday. These girls are really stealthy with their egg laying! :eek: Here is the 3rd female and her belly:

Thanks for all the suggestions. I'll continue the search tonight. I'm so excited!!!

I had this expectation that I might see some digging or altered behaviors from the gravid female. She looked about to pop the last few days. Tonight, I have a healthy looking NORMAL sized pygmy female. Huge belly is missing. I am certain eggs were laid somewhere in the enclosure. The big...

Temps are pretty much room temperature at 70-72 degrees. Humidity is somewhere between 70-85%, depending on how much they are misted. I don't currently have any lights on them. I thought about placing a uvb on the top for a couple hours a week for the plants. The soil seems to hold in...

2 of the females are from http://www.flchams.com. I ordered the male from http://www.backwaterreptiles.com and they threw in a surprise female with my order! The ones from Backwater appear to be smaller/younger than the others. The substrate is just plain organic (zero chemicals added) soil...

Here is my enclosure. I am still working toward replacing the plastic vines with real vines. I am about 8 weeks into this adventure and have a couple corners growing live plants and vines. We are crossing our fingers to get some captive bred babies out of this group of 1 male and 3...
