Thanks for the reply. I'll try the mineral oil. I tried bathing him today as I've seen people recommend it before for impaction. It went well, but still swollen. I've increased his misting from 4 times a day to 6 and he had a shower yesterday also.
He's only had his hemepenes out twice to...
Hi all, my 1 and a half year old male veiled has lost his appetite recently, and has started looking swollen around his bum with something crusty in it. Is this impaction?
I'm on my phone just now so will fill out the info form later when I'm home, but his temps/uvb/humidity/cage/calcium are...
Thanks for the replies!
I found out the issue, and I feel TERRIBLE for it.
Prior to moving them into their new tub, the tub they came in didn't have anything for them to grip onto etc, so they were falling onto their backs and unable to grab something to "unflip" themselves :( They're all...
Hello all,

In my opinion I've always found that crickets smell, regardless of what I've kept them in! Make sue to clear out any uneaten food every day and try to clean out the poop every few days as well as replace any cardboard tubes etc
A wasp within seconds of it being in my room. My cham was on my bed with me at the time and it flew past and BAM he caught it ,and before I could do anything it was down into his stomach.
Would seem I have a badass bodyguard.
:( My male veiled is 1 year and 5 months old, but only 132grams. He sheds every 3 months or so and I seen the vet just 3 weeks ago and he was pleased with his weight?! He is 15" in length so far.
I'm a little concerned now. He doesn't have the biggest of appetite, but he drinks well, his...
Yeah Mylo got constipated once because he ate the moss in his cage :rolleyes: He was SO grumpy for days, then when he finally managed to drop it, it was seriously something from a horror movie. No more moss for him!
Mines loves herbs such as mint, basil and parsley. He also loves orchid plant flowers. He is obsessed with moss, so I had to stop putting it in his cage. It's not harmful, but he'd eat so much of it he would have moss hanging out his poop :rolleyes:
Oh and water cress, especially if you...
