Butter still hasn't used his tounge to zap anything. I'm still hand feeding him silkies - by picking him up, which pisses him off, he opens his mouth, and I pop a wormie half way in his mouth, which he eats. How long should I keep this up ? His tounge isn't hanging out or anything, his...

"Dipped in Butter" is my male veiled. I've had him since July, and he was only a couple inches long head to tail when I got him....he has been the picture of health, until Thursday... Thursday morning I went downstairs to turn on his lights and do get him fed, sprayed, and his drip set up...

At what temperature do you put your cham outside to sun in the natural light ? I have a veiled male, and I have one of those pop up hanging enclousures for outside. It's beautiful out, but only about 70 F ambient. In the sun, it feels warmer. Is that warm enough for him, or should I wait...

Coastal has silkworm pods. Just 30 medium worms, but it will keep my guy happy !!!

Anyone know who has silkies in stock ? Butter is on a cricket strike.

I just put Butter in his new cage. I got him a 24x24x36. Even though he was in an 18x18x36 this just seems so much bigger !!!! I have both the schiffelara and the ficus in there and a small pathos on the bottom. Altho, Butter never has even visited the bottom 12 inches of his cage. I...

Thanks everyone for the 'push' to order Butter some silk worms. He loves them. His appetite has gone through the roof, and I started "serving" a few silkworms on spinach or dark greens, and he adores the greens now too. (I call it a silk worm salad) I wish I had a digital on hand to...

I just recieved some silkworms from Costal. I got 100 silkies, and some wet food. How do I feed it to the silkies? I cut off a couple chunks and put it in the a container that I got from them (ordered small conatiner w screen) but there were no instructions on how to feed/keep the wormies...

I have been worried about Butter (Veiled 5 months old) because I never see him drink, so this morning, I put his favorite waxworms in his plastic dish, on a bed of mixed baby greens that I had just washed. The greens were wet and fresh. An hour later, I was thrilled to watch him "shoot" at the...

I have had "Dipped in Butter", a male veiled, since July 3. When I got him, he was a tiny little guy maybe 2 and a half inches. He is now a strapping boy, with his adult colors, full of himself, huffing and puffing when anyone gets near his cage. He is housed in a screen cage, 18x18x36 (I...

I'm in my local independent pet store, looking at ceramic heat lamps, to get Butter's environment ready for the cold winter nights, and there are three teenage/ early twenty-ish maybe boys standing at the display of reptile lighting with me. The guys are seriously debating which light is...

Butter, my veiled boy is now about 4 months old. The small crix seem so little for him, and he was eating like 15 a day......but the mediums look so big. He doesn't like to eat when anyone is nearby, so I rarely get to see him hunt and eat. He also gets a few wax wormies a week, and eats...

I came in from work today, and went to check on baby Butter, and he was at the top of his cage, and had all of those wonderful colors that I see in the pics of eveyone's adult veileds !!! He had spots and stripes and was yellow and dark green and wow !!!! This is the first time I have seen...

I ordered an "explorium" for Dipped in Butter, and it arrived today. It is a popup mesh enclosure that hangs up. I ordered the medium, and it is pretty big. I wanted something so that I could have Butter go outside for a few hours. I live in the desert, and I wanted something that I...

When I was buying crickets, I over estimated how much Butter has grown, and bought medium crickets....but when I got them home, I realized that the crickets are way bigger than his mouth.... Dipped in Butter is now about 4 inches from snout to vent but once I put the crix in the cage, I realized...

Can I put my baby veiled (I'm thinking he is now about 3 months old give or take a week or two !!) outside in 100 + in partial/complete shade ? Or is it just too hot to do that ? Will he get any benefits from being outside in the shade, or does he need to be in direct sunlight to benefit from...

I have my baby "Dipped in Butter" in an 18x18x36" screen cage. He was a tiny baby (2" long body, plus tail) when I got him a month ago, and he is growing like....a weed ! He is getting longer, and is nice and fat. He is active, and climbs all over his enclousure, which has a ficus that takes...

My baby veiled was hanging on to the side screening of his enclousure, playing some form of chameleon twister, and crash ! The poor little guy landed on the bottom of his cage. He laid there looking stunned (he landed on his belly) for a couple seconds, and then was trying to find a way up...
