Thanks for all the helpful replies. It's hard to not check on them. I've been doing it a lot lately. I'll try to refrain! As long as I know they're OK.

I have about 20 eggs that my chameleon laid back in June, they'll be 8 months old in the beginning of Feb. When lit with my flashlight I notice a few have a round area (I'm guessing it's the baby chameleons head or something? ) and then a flat area, some have a little small line of darkness at...
There is a really good youtube video of a guy force feeding the moth, I think he used a Q tip to bring the moths mouth out and put it into the sugar water and it would drink.
My superworms won't eat anything I throw in their bin, I'm wondering why..
My mailman left the box of superworms on my side porch.. I had no idea they were outside until 2 days later! :eek: None were moving so I put them next to my heater and soon enough they began to move more and more! :eek...
If you find out she is gravid and she doesn't use the egg bin in your cage, you might consider putting her in a big trash can. For some reason I couldn't get my Veiled chameleon to lay eggs in a cut in half bucket like my Panther chameleon simply uses. My Veiled would go up and down the cage...
I recently purchased a fruit fly culture and I really didn't expect for there to be an explosion of mites so quickly. I have the culture sitting on my computer desk.. somehow the mites managed to get to the cup! Probably a little too late to put mite paper down..
Should I toss the whole batch...
Please delete this if its not aloud but .. I noticed a Solarmeter 6.2 @ $70 (no bids) and free shipping! A lot cheaper than purchasing brand new for $170.
Put this number in the search bar to find it if your interested. Ending in 50 minutes.

It's not my listing, just...
Similar thing happened to me. My male Nosybe climbed out of his fake tree. I searched 4 hours and it was starting to get dark. I was so upset! I know how you felt! MY last efforts was to bring my 2 females out, cages and all. I put the female he loves on a picnic table underneath this huge tree...
Hydei, thanks I'll buy those then. :) They'll be panther babies (if any hatch!) They've been incubating for 6 months now. I candle lit them and they seem to still have a while to go. Most of them have a small dark layer at the bottom of the egg. I figured the best way was to create my own...
Looking to buy fruit flies. I google searched and found a cheap (i think) fruit fly kit of 1 fruit fly culture and 8 ready to go cups for $25 shipped from a site called "snailtail". Has anyone purchased anything from this place?? Is $25 too much?
Also what type of fruit fly is best for baby...
I would love oNe of these. It would be very beneficial for my male nosy be. I have a plastic cuP in his cage that he never eats out of.. But if I put a superworm on a branch or have it climbing up the screen wall, he'll eat it. It would also be nice knowing I wouldn't have any escapees...
I doubt the chow is the problem. I fed all the hornworms the same exact chow as tiny babies and had no red hornworms. It's all of a sudden. I did pick each one with my hands and I didn't wash my hands before handling them (since they aren't as harmed as silkworms are).
They're all blue. The...
Here are the pictures. I tried to feed one that looked a little weird in color to my chameleon. It didn't seem dead. It had its head up in a curl and was hooked on the gutter wire I have in my plastic container. I fed it to my chameleon and she chewed it two times and spit it out.. so there must...
Recently, I made a new batch of chow and placed my hornworms in plastic containers that I cleaned out with dawn soap. The hornworms are about 1inch long (size varies, but no where near pupae size) Ever since.. Each day Ive been seeing dead red colored horn worms at the bottom of the cups. I...
THank you for the reassuring replies! I would love to know when the best time to start breeding fruit flies would be? The eggs are now over 5 months old and I was thinking of buying 1-2 fruit fly cultured with 8 empty cups to use to breed them out. Should I have already started breeding them?
Curious to know how many gnat cultures I need to have going and how many pin heads I will need to purchase to feed 20 babies (if all, or if any hatch).
Do you feed so crickets to the babies one day then gnats the next? Or mostly gnats? Mostly crickets?
