So I go to the doctor and for my annual physical. The blood work comes back and my doctor tells me I'm Vit D deficient and I have to start taking supplements. I opted for pills instead of dusting my food. I suppose I'll have to get a UVB light for my desk at work next.

Anyone know of a good place to get discount overnight shipping? It seems most of the places I have used in the past are having issues with the carriers or something else. If you're not a regular shipper, where do you go to get the discount? Last time I shipped overnight it was between $40...

I have a male carpet chameleon I need to sell. He's about 7 months old and doing real well. He's active and has started to lose his juvenile shyness. I got him from Dooley1 a while back. The deal is CB carpets are hard to find and I wanted an unrelated pair. In the process, I now have 2...

I have a friend at work who has a ton of hornworms that are eating her tomato plants. She'd be happy to collect some for me, but somewhere in the back of my mind I remember that you can't use hornworms that eat tomato plants because the plants are toxic. Can someone confirm this?

I have a few baby veileds from Baltazar and Xerxes available. They are about 3 1/2 months old now. Baltazar is the son of the Kammer's Emperor Ming and this is his first clutch. Each are $40 plus shipping. Here's some photos: Baltazar Baltazar male 1 Baltazar male 2...

I swear I have seen something about this in some old posts, but I can't seem to get the right search combinations to find them again. I just got back from a trip to Granada, Nicaragua and their common house geckos, that look just like ours here in Texas and probably like most generic house...

LLL Reptile has 24x24x48 cages on sale for $79.

I need some advice on what I can do if anything. Backstory: My veiled layed a clutch of 41 back at the beginning of December. For some reason, a majority were undercalcified. I ended up with 4 viable eggs. They incubated in vermiculite and did well, no issues with humidity or temperature...

I had my first veiled hatch last night! I have her little baby habitat set up but she seems to spend most of her time sleeping. She'll wander around a little, but mostly with her eyes closed. I haven't seen her eat or drink yet. I know it sometimes takes a day or two for them to start...

I've had a few successful matings, but I don't seem to be getting very many fertilized eggs, or I get very few fully calcifed ones. My first clutch of veileds didn't result in any viable ones, but I chalked that up to Marie being already a year or so old and already cycling, plus I didn't let...

Are these guys still in business? Anyone had any return contact? Someone on here said they sent money but never received the product.

Got a couple of my big boys out and about. Ray wasn't very cooperative and I didn't have much luck. Balti is more photogenic (he's easier to make mad), but hates the outside. You can see his colors darken. The only decent one of Ray today.

I'm taking a shot at raising silkworms and so far so good. I let about 35 cocoon, which turns out to be a good thing because I got about 20 males and 5 females. I'm sure the poor girls feel like they're on a never ending shift at the Bunny Ranch. Anyway, I've separated the females out with a...

How is the best way for a vet to draw blood for a screen? How much is needed? I'm not going to do it, but I need to get a panther a screen of calcium, phosphorous, and uric acid for possible gout and I want to know before taking him in. Thanks!

What are your opinions on frequency and length of misting? Would five 5 minute mistings (as an example) spaced through the day be better or a couple few minute mistings (say 3 minutes) an one long one (15 minutes) in the middle be better?

Can anyone translate one of the veiled caresheets into Spanish? I have a friend in Mexico that someone smuggled a baby female veiled to him last year. She was about 2-3 months in Oct and doing real well even in Dec. I told him as much as I could about housing and the care and how important...

Thought this might be interesting. I was wondering about some of the more unusual usernames people use on this site. I'd like to hear what the story is behind them. Obviously, not the self expanitory ones like "Justin Carl" and "Chamlover", but ones that are not so apparent. I'll go first...

Took the brood out for some sun today, with mixed results. Two tried to make a break for it, and one was thoroughly pissed about it. Let's see if I can get the photos up... http://s262.photobucket.com/albums/ii97/Alexfromhell/Outside%203-15/

I love this forum, but it's kind of like the med school phenomenon where half the class begins to think they've got whatever disease they're learning about in class. Now for my problem (maybe). My panther has a fat head. I've looked at a lot of peoples male panther photos and almost all...

I've made the switch to silkworms, but I'm wondering what's the best way to dust them. I know they've got a better calcium/phosphorus ratio than crickets, but it's still 1:2. Any thoughts?
