My Carmie died today:( she was just over 4 years old. There was a bit of a learning curve when I first got her but she stuck with me through that and had a good healthy life. I still can't believe how fast she went downhill in the last week. I would like to thank everybody for their knowledge...

I got a few decent pics of Carmie's tongue this morn, there is a yellow substance on her tongue that can be wiped off, There was a bit of blood as well. The rest of her mouth looks good. Is this considered mouth rot or would it be a tongue infection? Or are those the same thing? I'm going to...

I believe my 4 year old female veiled Carmie may be dying. She has been going downhill quickly. I had her at the vet a few weeks ago because her eyes were puffy and she couldn't see to eat, the vet figured it was blocked sinus ducts and suggested eye drops. I started using the drops and her...

I noticed a couple weeks ago this sac in front of my four year old veileds eyes, it doesn't seem to be painful for her as she lets me touch it but it seems to be interfering with her vision when she is trying to look forward. Around the same time that I noticed this I observed that she is...

I just noticed some fresh and concerning wounds on the upper part of my 4 year old veileds tail. Does anybody know what may have caused these wounds? My first thought is crickets chewing at her, I try not to let too many extra crickets roam around but there is sometimes a straggler or two that...

I have a well established dubia colony for sale in the Stratford Ontario area for sale that includes hundreds of dubia's of all sizes, lots of breeding adults. I would sell the whole colony for $40 and that includes their bin. Pick up only please , inbox me if interested.

I bought four indian walking sticks months ago to start a colony with, well they are all adults now and have laid at least 100 or more eggs between them. All the sticks still have all 6 legs except one that is down to 3 legs (i don't know how he lost them, must have got in a fight with another...

I noticed that since winter arrived here and the temps outside dropped so much that my f veiled is not as active in her cage as she was in the summer even though her enclosure temps are the same. Just curious if anybody else that lives in cold climates noticed this about their chams. I'm...

Does anybody know if there is anybody selling cricket crack in Canada? or if it can be shipped into Canada without any problems? I would love to try it out as it gets great reviews on the forums

I'm just kind of curious as to how often other adult chams poop. My female veiled used to poop pretty much every day when she was a juvi but since she became adult age (she is currently approx 15 to 16 months) she only poops about once every week or so. Her urates used to be very white but now...

Hello, i'm kinda curious if coffee grinds have anything to offer as a gutload? I feed my roach colony almost anything that goes in my composter and thats where the coffee grinds go and that got me wondering if it could be at all beneficial?

my 1 year old female veiled Carmie is usually quite regular when it comes to pooping, she usually goes at least every 2 days but she has only went once in the last 1 1/2 weeks that I can find in her enclosure anyways. I tried giving her a nice long warm shower a few days ago but it didnt seem...

I just got a digital scale to weigh Carmie and she came in at 166 grams. I did a search of female veiled weights and from what I read she is definately on the high end of what they weigh. She doesn't appear to me to be overweight but I would like some opinions on what more experienced members...

I recently added a hibiscus to my enclosure and added two 26 watt 6500k cfl's to help it thrive. I also have a 40watt basking bulb and a 18" repitglo bulb for UV. My problem is that my female veiled seems to hang out under the cfl's instead of her UV light now. Is there a chance that she is...

Carmie isn't usually a very picky eater but she will not even look at a silkie anymore (as you can tell by the last pic) but loves her hornworms and just about everything else.

Has anybody used indian stick bugs as feeders? I bought two of them yesterday and read up about them, they are supposedly super easy to raise and they don't even need to mate to lay fertile eggs making them real easy to breed. I was just wondering if your chams like them or not? they are...

Is there a way to sex dubia nymphs? I know how to tell the adult males from the females but I'm not sure how to tell before they develop their wings.

Hello, I am having possible issues with my schleffera, it seems to be thinning out quite a bit. Some of the leaves falling off have a small brown spot on them but not all of them do. What could be causing this? maybe not enough light? I just got a new flourescent tube grow light to use...

Is there any difference between a 6500k flourescent light and a 2700k flourescent light besides the colour of the light? i have been trying to locate a 18inch 6500k t8 light for my plants but have not been able to find one so I bought a 2700k t8 plant and aquarium tube (it says it is the...

I bought a new 18" flourescent light fixture that takes a type t8 bulb. I was not able to find a type t8 6500k flourescent tube that people say is good on here so I purchased a Plant and Aquarium 2700k bulb (the package said it is the ideal spectrum for growing indoor plants) I am just making...
