    What to do after eggs are laid?

    Ok, Karma spent last Wed/Thurs climbing and pacing all over her cage. I checked and chances are it meant she was looking to lay eggs. She isnt bred and age is unknown though we were told about 18 months when we got her 6 months ago but she seems younger than that. If real, she would be about...

    What time does your Cham eat?

    Karma does not like to be fed before about 9:30am or so. If I offer it before that, she gives me a dirty look and turns up her nose. I figure she is a late morning person like me. I get up at 5 but do not talk to me before I have had coffee and I would prefer an hour of leave me alone!LOL...

    What do you do with the water that drains?

    I have 1/2 a bucket sitting under her stand of drained water and was wondering if I could water houseplants with it? Cham poo isnt bad is it for plants? I mean most poo is good for plants and this is basically poo tea since its runoff from bottom of her cage. Do you think it would smell using...

    Waking up early

    Ok, I am up at 5am and for the past 3 weeks Karma was fine sleeping until 7am. Then we would slowly turn on her lights. This week, she has started waking up at 5am when I get up and moving around. Should I ignore it and wait until her normal time for her lights? OR Should I turn on...

    So, are they like us in that stress can give them yuck poops or tummy issues? Yesterday we moved Karma to her new cage. Lots bigger than her old one, open mesh instead of plexi, etc. So, lots of fresh air, lots of noises now, larger space, lots of changes and stress until she gets used to...
