Sorry, I gave the stuff to my sister for her to use down the road.

I owned a little Jackson's girl a few years ago. I haven't had any other chams since then and don't have plans to get another in the near future. I have two birds and two tortoises right now. I figured the chances of finding someone to buy the cage and accessories was pretty low so I figured I'd...

Free screen enclosure, silk plants, vines, and Miner-all. Ft. Lauderdale area.

What should the wax worms be fed if anything? I'm trying to fatten my cham up (she's recovering from an infection and lost quite a bit of weight).

You can probably use a 15 watt bulb. That shouldn't give off too much heat. Or if the you have a room in your house that is pretty warm you can keep them in there. (My parents have the furnace and hot water heater in the laundry room so it stays nice and warm. Let us know how it goes.

Female Jackson's born Oct 24, 2007

Silk eggs I've recently taken all of my silkworm eggs out of the fridge to hatch because my hatch rates were way down. Maybe it was my fridge temp but the eggs have deflated and only 8 eggs out of hundreds hatched. I only have one Jackson's so I was taking a few eggs out every couple of weeks...

My little girl (1.5 yo jackson's) is just recovering from a bad mouth infection that affected the accuracy of her tongue but she's adapting by getting closer to the food before shooting at it. She seems to prefer crickets over the silkies even though the silkies are easier to catch. She'll also...

Her tongue is still out of wack Pickles has been off of Baytril for a week now. She is hungry and shoots at the silkies and the pill bug that I see every few days in the cage but her aim is WAY off. Even up close she usually misses. I suppose she could still have some swelling but I think the...

Thanks for all of the replies. She is now off the Baytril, having completed her treatment, so if that's the issue then it should soon be out of her system. Although it sounds like it is unlikely the culprit from your feedback. I assume the tongue connects pretty far back in the throat for it to...

Thanks for the reply. It is interesting to hear that you have seen vision changes. I know she can see because she will eat if the food is close but maybe she doesn't see real clearly. She is off of the Baytril as of yesterday so I'll have to see if her aim gets better in the next week or two. I...

I have a year old female jackson's that developed an absess in her lower left jaw area. It was cleaned out and cultured and came back with psudomonis. The infection had invaded her jaw bone so during the cleaning, a piece of her jaw with about 8 teeth came out. The jaw is still structurally...

Silkworm breeding My little girl LOVES silks. She never eats in front of me and this morning she ate four silks off my hand. (She hadn't had any for a couple of months.) I haven't been working with silks for very long but have successfully hatched and raised silks to the point that they cocoon...

I live over in the Miami/Ft. Lauderdale area and would be happy to do some day trips or weekend trips over to collect veileds in Naples or Ft. Myers if someone can identify where the population is located. Unless I missed it, the article didn't say specifically where they were found.

Dripper Anyone? Sounds to me like you need to set up a dripper or a drip system that will provide water but not get him wet if he doesn't want to. My little girl is pretty good about drinking when I take her out to sun and can really get everything wet, so I haven't set one up yet. There are...
