:( After 6+ months of struggling with a staff infection Ichi gave up his fight late last night in my arms... I will miss him greatly & I know that he is now in a better place. I can't even explain the pain that I am going through...I guess you don't realize how attached you really get to these...

:(:( Well I took Ichi back to the vet on Friday for his check up on his nose and eye. She flushed out his nostril and took out the gunk from the top of his mouth. She gave him another antibiotic to see if this helps. I talked to the vet and she said that it looks like his sinus infection is...

I know I haven't posted in a while...I have been working long days, spending time with family that is moving to Italy in September, and spending all my free time (it seems like) at the vet. Ichi is over his staff infection and is healing well. Two weeks ago when I went to give him his meds I...

I cleaned the pygmy home yesterday so I decided to take a few photos of them...the female is more willing then the male...here are a few of the photos that I took

I almost forgot I went to Joann's to pick up a few fabrics and guess what I found... a cool looking blue chameleon that is almost as big as Ichi....here is a photo for comparison! I really don't think Ichi liked him though...:D

Here are some photos of Ichi hanging outside last Saturday (way to hot this weekend) He went to the vet Friday for a follow up to see how he is doing....the vet said he looks great and is doing good. I think it looks pretty bad but the vet is very pleased with the progress. She did tell me...

I know that these plants are toxic for Melleri but what about pygmy? I have some and the ivy I have in their set up is dying...so I wanted to know if Philodendron is toxic for pygmies also. I just wasn't sure since they don't eat leaves like Melleri:) Thanks for any info!

Well I took Ichi to get another shot yesterday and the vet had the results from the tests/cultures she took. I would have never guessed this but he has a staff infection! He is getting better though...she says the infection is healing nicely and his lobe might be saved. She cleaned of the area...

Well I got up this morning and like I do everyday I go and check on my chams. One of my female pygmies Lizzy always hides under ivy leaves so since I hadn't seen her yet I started to look over near the ivy and I found her dead...:( I got her back in Jan. at the reptile expo and she is the cham...

Well a little over a month ago I posted about my Mellers lobe looking hard and dried up....I had been giving him Reptiaid and it seemed to be getting better. A few days ago I noticed that the discoloration on his shoulder was bigger so I decided to make a vet app. just to see what is going on...

I bought a 10.0 bulb to place on my Mellers cage but I noticed after I bought the bulb it said for desert terrarium would that still be ok? I am just trying to make his home a bit lighter. I have a 5.0 Reptisun in right now and the 10.0 I bought is Repti Glo by Exo Terra.

I took my pygmy eggs out of the moss and put them in vermiculite after I had mixed warm water in it. I was just wondering how wet or how dry should this stuff be? I have read that the eggs can go bad if to wet or to dry, so I just wanted to know what you all think. Right now I have it moist and...

Well Yesterday I found little eggs in my pygmy cage. There are three total..I didn't realize how small they would be it's like finding small white jelly beans! I am going to drive down to lllreptile tom and get a proper incubator (Since in my area they only sell chicken incubators) but for now I...

I hope someone can help me with my Mellers question. A few days ago I noticed that one of the lobes on my Mellers looked a different color and shriveled up a little compared to the other side. I took my Mellers out and the Shriveled up lobe is hard! I don’t want to get too freaked out but what...

Ok my new pygmy home is all set up but I can't seem to get it warm enough in their new home...from what I read they like it in the low to mid 70's with a 10 degree drop at night. I bought the smallest watt bulb that I could find in my area which was a blue daytime heat 40 watt bulb and it got...

Ok here is the new set up for my new chams Izzy & Lizzy. I have since taken out the green dish....was worried that they wouldn't find the food! Let's just say that isn't a problem! Here are a few photos of Izzy (Lizzy is a bit more shy about coming out into the open! Other than the first photo...

Well I did it...I didn't want to but I did! I was in the LA area today and decided to drag myself to the show.....and even though I didn't really have the money:) I walked out with two Pygmy chams (not sure which type), a couple of hissing roaches, some reptiaid (thanks Sang!),and 1000+...

Ok I admit it might be a silly question but what really is the difference between a reptiglo light and a reptisun light? I am in the process of upgrading the size of hood on Ichi's cage but I have a reptiglo light and I just don't know the difference between the two and I know I can't count on...
