Sure, that'd be great.. Yea, I just fed Koopa the last of the cream ones, there's a few slow-moving black ones in there, then there's a handful of hard, non moving black ones that are either dead or ready to break open and turn into flies. Not sure though, because I'm not sure how long they're...

:confused: You tie string to fruit and sling it around the cage?

Thanks. yea, I'm just using the phoenix worms as one of the feeders for my cham. Some have turned black, but I dont know if they're dead, or if they're transforming into flies

I tried the method from the video, and he wasn't having it haha. I shredded a couple razberries, and placed them on the tip of my fingers with my palm faced upward, wiggled the fruit a bit, and he just starred at them.. I then threw in some Phoenix worms in the mix, and he picked off all the...

I have a question about Phoenixs as well: Can you leave them in the container with saw dust that they come in, or do you remove them and put them in some other type of bedding?

:D Just be glad they were grasshoppers, and not roaches. I can only IMAGINE how you would've reacted if you freaked out over grasshoppers! Glad to hear you caught them. With somebody around here sold baby grasshoppers:(

C'mon people, don't be shy:D I know a lot of you feed your veileds fruit! I demand you tell me how!! :p jk..please?

So where's everybody getting their dubias from?? I ordered my 1st batch from smallpetfeeders for pretty cheap, but since they're located in ATL and I'm in Cali, the price isn't as great as it could've been. I need about 100 (1/4'' - 1/2'') of them for a good rate

Koopa is about 5 months old. Entering his juvenile stage. He absolutely demolished his money tree leaves, so I know he likes veggies. I've read many times that veileds love fruits and veggies... Question #1: how do I get Koop' to try some fruit? What is your method? The problem I have, is...

:eek: Wow many of you have been bitten lol I'm sure my time will come from doubting you.. I always grab the monster crickets out of the keeper in fear of my cham choking on them (he's only 4 1/2 months), but I've been lucky so far I guess.

Wow :) Did it hurt? IDK, i've never thought a cricket could bite a humam, :D guess I'm just lucky to have never been bitten. Now you guys are gonna have me thinking twice before holding a giant cricket haha

Actually, it depends on the size of the mouth and whether they have teeth or not. Just like Daddy Long-legs cannot penetrate our skin, yet they are one of the most poisonous spiders in the world. To be more specific, only certain types of crickets can actually bite humans. It depends what region...

crickets do not bite people, I don't know where you guys are getting that from:rolleyes: You're probably feeling their legs trying to dig or escape, their mouths are not big enough to bite us. To the OP, it sounds like your solution would be to cup feed. provided that your cup is steep...

I don't think it's a big deal if it isn't curled during the day while he's roaming around. However, it should be curled while sleeping I believe.. Is it straight while sleeping? I'm not expert by any means, but I know mine always has his tail curled while sleeping

No prob.. Sounds like you have a good routine then. I know what you mean about all the plants and vines and the possibility of all the feeders hiding. One idea to get him accustomed to hunting, which is a method that I use to avoid the feeders getting away, is to put the feeders on the screen of...

From everything I've read, the rule of thumb is to feed the little guys as much as they want. 25-30 crickets plus 5 roaches seems like an aweful LOT though for your little guy, but maybe he's just going through a growth. Phoenix's do not need to be dusted with calcium. As you've said they...

Best method I've found with my 4 1/2month old veild is to put crickets in a cup w/ lid, shake with calcium, then open the lid, put the cup w/ open end against the screen of the enclosure, and let them crawl up the screen towards my little guy's basking spot. He inhales almost all of them, 8-10...

i had problems with smallpetfeeders' website as well a few weeks back. However, I called and spoke to the manager, Dave, and was able to place the order over the phone. They're reconstructing their site right now. Best deals I've seen though

Interesting.. Now that I think about it, I haven't done much research on jacksons, just veileds.. Good to know their requirements are vastly different in case i ever get a Jackson

Calcium only once a week? I thought it was at every feeding.
