Thank you! I really appreciate your help here :)

Hi all, Hopefully all's well now that spring's finally here! So we've had some cockroach sightings in our apartment and will probably ask the landlord to come fumigate it. I did see some threads about precautions to take (closing / blocking the vents, towels under the door, taking the...

Hi all, Hopefully all's well! I have 12 full-grown or close to full-grown hornworms that are too big to feed to my veiled (bought online from a good site for reptile feeders). Would anyone in the Worcester or Boston area want them (free to have)? These could be good for breeding if you'd want...

Agreed! It's one of the things I love most about them. Here's one from just the other day along these lines 😂🥰

So sorry for your loss... He was absolutely gorgeous and you did all you could to give him a good life ❤️ Thank you for sharing this with us and wishing you well

Thank you all for the well wishes 😊 That's also my favorite pic: I laughed out loud when he was doing that 🤣 Yep! The vet showed me how to pinch his upper arm between my fingers so the muscle is away from the bone, and how to inject at an angle (plus holding down the injection site for a bit...

Just adorable 🥰 like a little mittened dinosaur

Hey all! Just got back from the vet, and thank you again for all of the suggestions earlier 🙂 They aspirated the bump and it was the start of an abscess so they were able to remove all the pus apparently. I asked the vet to flush it but he flat out refused. I used to go to another vet but this...

That could be the reason, definitely. Also, is there some kind of standard aftercare that the vet should put me in charge of after trhe pus is removed (e.g. any antibiotics, wound care, what to feed, etc)? If yes to antibiotics, are there any that are known to be worse in side effects that I...

Thank you! That makes sense--I did luckily get an appointment for Monday, but will definitely keep a close eye until then. Really appreciate the perspective 😊

Thanks for the fast response! Hmm, I tried to gently touch him to provoke him into gaping but of course this time he only slightly hissed and mostly ignored me. And while wearing a glove I carefully touched the bump and it seems to be some kind of something-filled sac unfortunately (it was...

Hi all! Today I noticed my veiled seems to have a bump on his chin. Does this look like an abscess to you? Otherwise he seems to be pretty healthy, minus refusing to eat crickets and being picky about eating generally 🙄 Though he has started eating hornworms recently which is good for a bit of...

A couple of recent favorites: 1. Hahaa I'm a dinosaur, fear me 2. No superworm today? Enjoy the butt view then 🤣 I guess he learned it from Bilbo 3. Waiting at the food plate like a dog, but angry 😂

Happy Hatch Day to you and Bilbo 🎉 He is such a cute boy and that picture of him with the sleepy eyes just about made my heart melt 🥺😍

Same thing happened to me with a superworm once 😂 Luckily I was far away enough and outside of the radius of the spray

I have a couple from his most recent shed. Caught him at the right moment on that second one 😂 They're so cute generally but extra grumpy and adorable when shedding 🥰

Nope--he did happily eat the flies the time I got them before, and ate a couple of the larvae when I cup fed him but likes neither now. I've tried cup feeding him the larvae, letting the flies loose in his cage, and putting the larvae in his feeder run (he does eat superworms and crickets out of...

Hi all! Does anyone in the Miami area have a cham that likes black soldier flies? I have a bunch of them and probably more that are going to emerge, and my cham decided that he doesn't like them anymore 🙄. I'd be happy to give them away for free to anyone interested. Thanks 😊

I think any crickets that survive well (i.e. are good quality) should do. I have had good luck with Rainbowmealworms for my last batch, and I think Critter Depot banded crickets were good too (depending on where you are and which is closest). Could be that the Rainbowmealworms crickets aren't...

Perfect! Thank you so much for sharing 😊 This was exactly what I was thinking about these days
