The babies don't tolerate heat so well...
Keep the temps under the 80's always and i'm sure there's gonna be a hefty bill coming under the food section.:D
P.S; They love extra mistings.:)
If its light causing the burn, dump the 75 watt and get a 60 watt bulb.
My pothos leaves burn on the edges when the soil is water-logged regardless of heat as the pothos can handle quite alot of heat. Just water it every 2-3 days depending on how fast the soil dries out and you'll notice well...
Melea continuously did that when she was gravid with her babies. I have also noticed that when i give her a few extra feeders as a treat once in a while, she basks on her side, as if trying to compensate for the extra intake.
Cool pic..LOL FYI though, I'm pretty sure thats the stigma with the 'veiled face'.

Fed wild caught Maggots (fly larvae) to him from my compost bin and he passed 3 weeks later due to parasites. I realized he was infected too late to save him.
Not really.
I suggest you just buy a normal 60W(max) incandescent bulb coupled with a zoomed reptisun 5.0 linear tube. Much safer and guaranteed to perform well.
What cham do you have/plan on getting?
If your getting a veiled, go for a 60W, NOTHING HIGHER...!
I agree its hot as hell, but the humidity here during summer is in the upper 70's and only drops to the 40's during winter. Humidity remains high as I live close to the coast. If i try to get some of this humidity into my room by opening the window, I'm greeted with a hot blast of air during...
This one is for all you guys living in Florida/Texas/Arizona etc or any hot and humid part of this world for that matter.
During summer when temps are known to ease past the 100F mark what do you'll do?? Well offcourse, you have your chams indoors but then how do you handle stuff like...
the 'animal expert' is somewhat right on that one. They only move to search for new feeding grounds or mates. Otherwise they guard their territory fiercely.
Since its only been less than 2 weeks, i'm pretty sure he'll be on the same tree. I've lost a cham before. Got her back after 5 days of searching. I have 2 large trees in my garden but she headed for the smaller one/closer one.
Was about 5 or 6 feet above my head, and so i needed a ladder. I...
