The only other option I can think of is to get a small syringe and administer water daily that way. It can be tricky though and you dont want him to inhale any water into his lungs. You have to put the syringe down into the throat and go slowly. Bad part is that it is alot more stress on the...
Keep up with the mistking mistings and also try misting him by hand until you actually see him drink. Mine got used to me hand misting and now they dont get freaked by the mistking going off anymore. Some of them will run from the mist and not drink. I hand mist in the morning daily to be sure...
You look to be doing things properly. How are the outside temps in your area? If the temps are high enough (over 70 degs). I would try putting him outside for several hrs in the cage. Let him get some real uvb, there is no substitute for real sun. Ive seen lots of chams perk up after spending a...
Best route to take is make sure you get her hydrated first. Thats the most important thing. Hydration or lack thereof is a major factor when dealing with newly imported wc's. They can go quite awhile without food but water is essential. I give mine a cpl of weeks to get fully hydrated and let...
Gorgeous mitsio. Did you happen to get him from Benton here on the forum. He is breeding mitsios. Wish we could get some more over here in the states. They are hard to come by over here. Good luck with him....
Houston Texas here. I actually had my chams outside up until last weeks cold front blew thru. We were in the mid 80's up til about dec 15th this yr. Sure makes things alot easier when you dont have to worry about central heat drying everything out. Last yrs winter was pretty mild also, but not...
Do you know who got all of Kaleidoscopes breeders. Im looking for an ambilobe they had called Uncle Sampson. Very unusual red white & blue ambilobe. I got a female faly from Kaleidoscape a few yrs ago and now they have just disapearred?
Thanks for the info everyone. I was wondering if it was an issue in Maddy that was causing this. Im glad we arent seeing the massive imports myself. But a few imports with quality specimens would really help some of us.
I will def be watching for that shipment to come in Chad. I cant remember...
Yeah we've seen some pygmys/Brookesia species come in. But not many pardalis at all. We usually see a ton of ambanjas & ambilobes but the last 2 yrs have been really lean yrs. Havent seen any Ankify, or Ankaramy in a cpl of yrs come in from Maddy. Heck even Nosy Be's have been few and far...
Why are we not seeing any wild caught imports coming in this year? Ive seen a few but not in the numbers we were used to seeing a few yrs ago. I know with the Tanzania ban still is place we arent seeing those species from mainland Africa. But why arent we seeing any pardalis or lateralis from...
Glad you decided to go Jann. Enjoy yourself and plz take alot of pics for us chameleon crazy forum members. lol I cant wait to check em out after you return. Have a safe trip!
I have a wc faly that got me pretty bad. I prob should have gotten a cpl of stiches but I cleaned and disinfected it and just threw on a butterfly on to keep it from bleeding for a few days. Still have a slight v shaped scar there. lol Been bitten more times than i can count but that was the...
Probably not gonna find many locust or hoppers in the Bronx.
Go to the feeder forums and place a wanted ad. Someone might have a few that they could gift to you to start a colony.
I know they signed waivers beforehand but I def see a lawsuit in Ben Siegels future. Sucks, someone lost their life doing something so gross just to win a free snake. Feel sorry for the guys family and also for Siegel, Im sure they just wanted a little publicity and its gonna end up costing the...
