On top of answering Kev about the with or without D3, could you be a little more specific in about your dusting routine? In all honesty, besides the fungus, he doesn't look to be that bad off. Is that an old pic? I was expecting to see him wasting away. Like I said before, they don't need...

Just wow!!

Just so you know. This is not an adequate basking light. Compact floros put off a small amount of heat, but no where near enough to be considered as a basking lamp. Melleri need a cool basking light, but this is way too cool. You need about a 40 watt incandescent bulb. Travis,seriously...

This is a total myth/urban legend. It's never happened and if you do some searching here you will find information supporting this and the fact that it's totally impossible.

Congrats Brye! So are these from a gravid WC??

Since this is already so public *sigh* I suggest you PM email addys and take all conversation of this type off of the forum all together. *sigh*

Wile force feeding, don't over do it. They don't need a whole lot of food. One of my Melleri was able to actually put on weight only eating 1-2 super worms a week. So don't over do it. I agree with the rest, you need to get him to a vet.

Being that these are Noseys and WC at that, I have to wonder if they may be genetically too close to be allowed to breed. The problems (weak clutch) you've described does sound like poor genetics. Breeding them together again will tell you if this is true or not. Have any of the breeders...

Jake, this is not a "supposed" ban. And if a supplier is caught shipping to Florida they will be fined. If fish and Game discover you have illegal roaches, they will be confiscated and you will be fined. I've had several suppliers tell me they would not ship here due too this law. You can also...

Glad to hear she is ok. I have to wonder..do breeders who have females with these kind of issues ever breed them again?

Yes you can, but you need to go to home depot or any other garden center/nursery and get some root growth hormone. Use clippings that are no more than 6 inches long. Make your cut at a point where the plant has either a branch offshoot or a leaf. Use sterilized sheers to make the cut. Remove all...

LOL man lighten up. I was halfway playing with you in my post, hence the smiley faces. And if this is all of what you meant, then you should have posted as such. You have to realize the written word on a public forum is very easy to take literally. So one needs to be careful about the advice one...

The only time you won't need a basking lamp is if the room your cham is kept in has an ambient temp as high as the basking temp of what ever species you are keeping.

Very cool Danny, I don't know why they would want to breed out the blue eyes. It think they are sweet looking. Although I'm not sure if the gene causes other genetic uhohs or not. Sometimes that can be the case. Haley, ease up a lil.

Bout damn time. The Japanese refuse to listen to any kind of limit on fishing any species. They do nothing but take and take and in the end, we will all pay the price.

lol Little feet.

PSL? huh you lost me in that one. I was saying it's best not to share information about illegals coming in to Florida on a public forum. Was directed at you as well as Montium. Now that all hopes of subtlety is out the window........ edit: NVM..I see, port saint lucie?

Yeah, the only reason I used it for my Melleri enclosure is I built it prior to knowing much about the 2 individuals, and Melleri are a species that are notorious for screen climbing. Knowing the 2 as I do now, I would opt for reg screen. My kitty is constantly chasing down crickets and super...

It's best not to share such information on a public forum. ;)

Yes it is Jessica, but usually screen climbing isn't an issue provided the cage is large enough and has sufficient cover with ample climbing structures. The problem with the hardware cloth..like what I've already said, bugs can escape through it. For the few times a cham may climb a screen in a...
