    My Yemen Seems to walk lop-sided to the right?

    Thanks for the info on gut loading. He usually sleeps in the top right corner of the enclosure (on top of a verticlly hanging plant) but not, it seems he can#t be bothered, or hasn't got the energy to climb up there, so he just sleeps on his horizontal branch 3/4 of the way up the tank. Tim

    WOW some of your chams are so colourful

    I've browsed the photo's on this site, and i'm absolutely loving the vivd colours some of you have achieved. My question is, what species do you find, have brighter, more vivd colouration? and is it down to diet as much as what species he is? I ask because i'm in love with chams and would...

    How often is he supposed to eat?

    My Male Yemen seems to eat 4 or 5 locusts every other day or so, and i think he's slightly older than yours (if yours was bought from a baby). I wave them in front of him to see if he's hungry, if he shows interest, i chuck a load in and you can usually find a few dotted around the cage...

    Wow cheers guys it's just the front that is made of glass, the rest is beeh effect wood with a huge vent hole, big branch going through the middle and a load of plants to climb/walk on. As for the uvb light, that kind of worries me, it's a repti-glo 8.0 uvb something or other. It's a...

    My Yemen Seems to walk lop-sided to the right?

    about 1-1 1/2 years old or so, i'm not 100% sure as i got him from the store, who was given by an owner who didn't have the space for him. Just got off the phone to the vet and he reckons it could be a dietary problem and reccomends feeding pheonix worms, or could be an enclosure problem like...
