about 3/4's of an in of my veiled's tail looked burned and fell off. Now another 3/4's of an inch is black and looks burned again? However, I don't think it's getting burned, I think it's a disease... Thoughts?
So I have 22 silkworms that are getting big, and I would like to hopefully get some eggs, but I have a quick question.
When they start cocooning, and once they are in their cocoons, and once they are moths, do they need to stay at the same temperature they were at when they were worms?
Is it weird that I'm so excited?
I ordered from www.theroachranch.com the owner, Ian, is a really nice guy, quick replies to any email question, very helpful.
I got about 150 mixed, very well packaged and I didn't see even one dead one. Shipped fast.
I thought I would be creeped out...
I really want to just order some silkworm eggs, and I've read a ton of threads about them, and watched a ton of youtube videos on raising them, but I am nervous about keeping the temperature up. I've been trying to figure out how to build an incubator/something to keep the babies in.
Anyone...
From reading on here, I have learned that their poop should be white if they are well hydrated. I was wondering though, because mine (the chams, really) is always like white falling out of a black outer "tube"
Maybe some of the more experienced keepers could post pictures of all types of...
So I have 2, 4 month old female veileds, and they eat crickets like crazy, but I thought I'd try superworms. I put 4 in the cage thinking they'd each eat 2. But I only saw one of my chams eat one worm. anyway, after a while I looked in the cage and didn't see any more worms, but since I put...
I did do a search, so I apologize if this has been answered before, but at what age do they tend to shed?
I see lots of threads about them shedding, but not any where they talk about at what age?
It's a veiled, if that matters.
So I got 7 small hissing and 1 dubia cockroaches, and I just thought I could dump them in the chams cage. They just sat on the bottom and didn't move. I did see one of the chams catch one, but am I supposed to cup feed them?
Will they eventually move enough to get noticed, or will they...
Right now, I have 2, 4 month old veileds, and I saw some people on youtube breeding pill bugs, looks easy so I want to try. But my question is when they say not to feed more than once a week (for example) does that mean one singular bug, or one feeding of that bug?
I hope that's clear...
Hello everyone!
Quick intro, I was at a reptile show looking for frogs really when a cham caught my eye. Was very intrigued, so I asked a ton of questions, which the lady seemed to answer well, so I ended up buying 2 chams on the spot, and all the accessories, but now that I found this forum...
My 4.5 month old veiled female cham is kind of "dancing" when she walks. She rocks back and forth as she walks. It's cute, unless that means something is wrong...
Thanks in advance.

I know I could probably search this, except for the fact I don't know what words to search for.
What's the little "code" everyone uses in their sig. like 1.0, 1.1 etc. I know it's what pets you have, but how does it work?
I just got 2 veiled chams today, and was wondering 2 things.
1. Do I leave the basking light on all night?
2. One of them seemed to spend the entire day hanging upside down from the top screen, is this ok/normal?
They are both females (at least that's what the lady said) and they are...
