Uhhhh. Slightly confused where you live, i assume its not the USA /EU. Lucky herp is a china brand and not well known in USA / EU. https://www.luckyherpreptile.com/lucky-herp-uvb-100-t8-fluorescent-lamp-14w-15w-18w-25w-30w-36w_p0039.html SO here is your issue with lighting. You have a 15...

His cask is swole, his cheeks are swole, his eyes are starting to swole. i bet is neck is going to start to swole. I think hes got edema from too much vitamins/minerals supplements. Id drop all (even calcium) for a week or two and see if it goes down.

At least the tails curl correctly.

I was thinking this Or using a shop vac and sucking a few wet washcloths through the tubes.

I still want to know the frequency and technique folks use to keep there foggers clean... Thinking about the pvc hard tube. If it is large enough you might be very easy to just tie a string around a face cloth and pull it through the pipe. That might make it extremely easy to clean quickly...

Here is our discussion from 5 years ago. https://www.chameleonforums.com/threads/foggers-a-tool-or-a-danger.173556/

The pink slime in north america is either Serratia marcescens (S. marcescens) or Aureobasidium pullulans (A. pullulans). AKA Bathroom Mold. And neither of them are in the families of Aeromonas, Pseudomonas, Mycoplasma, and Salmonella. So maybe the pink stuff doesnt affect reptiles? Aka it...

Its possible people who do not "need" a humidifier might not get the pink slime? Like only people who live in a dry environment? it appears to be a mold, which is why it builds up in dark places, so my idea of using opaque tubing wouldnt help. This article seems to align with what i see...

I got no dog in this fight, but i was a fogger at one point. Perceived risks versus actual complications I dont know if this is part of the survey, but "the cleaning of the system" was a problem for me. While my misting system never needed cleaning, my fogging system always got the "pink...

So i will ask you the new age question. Do the adults live 24 hours, 2 weeks, or 40-50 days like the orkin man says? But back on subject, at our house, they were living off the used wet tea leaves of all things. Removed that and they were gone in a few weeks. So i wonder if there is some...

ohh , he is down brumating, hes not over the rainbow bridge

Im not having much luck finding it. It was an article published around 2017 that i read in 2019 after the tegus 2nd brumation. It had to do with forced brumation of captive tegus and how it was not triggered by temperature changes. On a side note, Lola went down the beginning of august. And...

Looks full grown. So could be any age past 9 months. And as others stated. Keep him hydrated. Feed once a day. Id clean up poop very quickly, at least daily. You hope he was just neglected and parasite free. But certain parasites are a pain to remove once introduced, and most are spread...

This is why it is hard interacting with you. I did not say anything negative about you. I did not write rows and rows criticising you or calling you out. I even agreed with all the articles including the ghost/donut that i explained a few posts down (aka plain calcium donuts, just not water...

You are talking to a community that relies heavily on roaches. Your roach article ended with: Do not believe feeding roaches is a good idea. It is not. It is a terrible idea — one that leads to terrible pain, suffering, and guaranteed death. You did not advise an alternative, or link to one of...

They tried to apply this logic in tegu land. The experiment was those that hibernate/brumate there animals for 6-8 months a year, vs those (i assume more tropical areas) that never put their animals down. At the end of the study no correlation was found. So it wasnt like you get a fixed...
