hi there, so, I've noticed recently that my female yemen has problems aiming. She misses if she tries to shoot from a distance (mind you no longer than 4"), and prefers to get really close and just kinda grab the bug with her mouth. She is 3.5yo. She was spayed when she was 0.5yo, so I...

Hi, it is I again.. asking about silkworms again:) Anyone knows of any silks around apart from silkwormstore? Their worms just turn into goo no matter what I do. tried many times with the same result. Decided not to to bother anymore.

Noticed something weird on Bishop's crest today. Took him out. A part of this is raised and moist. Looks like a burn bubble. Is it a burn? What is it? Why is it always him getting all sorts of ailments.. Do I need to take him to the vet?

So, I had about 500 morio worms in a big tub with wheat bran and oats. Today I opened it to check how are they doing and I was not happy with what I saw. Seems like a good few days ago I put pieces of carrot and parsnip in.. and happily forgot about them. Naturally all substrate got moldy, some...

Hi there folks! It seems it never ends with Ripley.. today I found her napping during the day. I got a new plant for her, it's rrrrreally bushy. So, it's quite dark there when she hides in it. And this plant is her new favourite hanging out place. She spends her morning at the top basking...

Hey folk any ideas where i can get silkworms? Well apart from silkwormstore.. not a big fan of their, for some reason the worms turn to goo within a couple of days. I've got some eggs cooking, but it's gonna take forever.. so any suggestion would be very appreciated Thanks!

Someone posted on facebook today, I thought I'd share =)

It's been a while.. Thought I'd share how my guys are doing. Ripley is gravid, even though she's not supposed to be. Showing off her 'not interested' colours at the sight of poor Bishop (who is very interested ha) Little Bishop is not so little anymore. I think for a runt who ued to be...

Hi there, I have a wee issue. Ripley managed to regrow her ovaries and she is gravid now. It's still at least a month till she is due to lay, the problem is I have some family related business to attend in another country and I will be away for about a month. I really don't know what to do...

Just wanted to share my morning fail. So, I got calci worms out of the fridge, warmed them up and left them in a shallow tray for "5 minutes".. Naturally I forgot about them, cleaned Rocky's cage, did some chores... an hour later I walked in he kitchen. The worms were everywhere, literally all...

Hi everyone, it's been a while! I got a wee problem and I would like an advice (or two) pretty please. My panther chameleon Rupert is always dark. He doesn't eat much and doesn't seem to be interested in anything. He used to be bright blue, now he is nearly black most of the time. I have no...

I had my male out today for a wee bit, and when I put him back, I've noticed Ripley looking like that, which is really weird cause she was spayed in October. Any ideas? Could she regrow her ovaries and oviducts?

Today I introduced Ripley and Bishop to each other. Went well. They hang out together for a bit

Like I didn't have enough worries because of Rupert, now Ripls decided to act all weird. She is restless, wants out all the time. As soon as you put her back in, she wants out again. She is showing receptive colours, even though she's been spayed. She doesn't look like she has eggs. She is 165g...

I posted here a while ago when my Ambanja went on a hunger strike. So, by trial and error I found that he will eat silkworms, butterworms and green banana roaches and an occasional locust if I starve him. Banana roaches are ridiculously expensive here.. about £1 each, so I can't really buy them...

Finally after 4 months of being terrified of me Bishop ate from my hand!!! Since I had to pry his mouth open to give him his meds, he was really wary of me and would run away and hide when I get close. I slowly started working my way 'in' again. Today he couldn't resist. He wanted to hide...

Rips went for a walk in the lounge today. First she met the Russian Bear.. but there was nowhere to go, so she had to turn around and crawl on another bear and another.. Until there was nowhere to go!:D

A couple of days ago Bishop and Ripley saw each other for the 1st time, and since then she has been showing breeding colours:confused: I'm rather confused by this as I thought she wouldn't anymore. Since she was spayed half a year ago, she's been mostly green with some brown patterns. But after...

Yesterday when Ripley was hissing at me I noticed her teeth were kinda brownish. Is that normal or do I need to do something about it?

I took Rupert to the vet today, she said he looks fab and everything is great, but suggested additional heat source for the night for him. Is it really necessary? Just wanting to make sure. If it is, I'll have to arrange it I suppose. The night temp drops to high 60s, she suggest a minimum of...
