Recently got myself an adorable red tegu (5months old ) . I´ve had her for 5 days now and she is burried under the substrate 24/7, and I know that it is normal.. But then it is the problem with feeding her.. I tried putting food in a bowl and put it in her cage, but she is just staying...

Hi. My humidity have been spiking to about 89% after misting so I had to leave her cagedoor open. What can the impact be on the cham being in too high humidity? I´ve noticed that she is spending more time down in the cage than high up, specially after misting. I got a laybox for her incase...

So this question touches mostly my leopardgecko, but my cham also. when I feed either of them mealis or superworms, they always end up crawling out of the tank and develop to beetle somewere in the tank.. It sucks most with my geckos since they need a shallow dish to feed from and the worms...

So I tried that freezing mealworm thing so that they didn´t turn into beetles.. They were in the freezer for like 5 days, toke em out let them thaw. Woke up next morning to black dead mealis... What went wrong? :confused:

So my cham is currently at the bottom of her viv and drinking water from the bottom since it is a glass tank and water often collects on the bottom (I take it away every night before bedtime). Ever heard of this before? She got a dripper and misting 4 times a day.

Bought a exoterra heatmat for my dubias yesterday, but I read that once it is applied it cant be removed.. But does anyone know a way around this? I´ve been thinking like this: Remove the plastic (as told) and apply four smal magnets on each side of the heatmat, and since my dubias are in a...

So my cham Stella is a veiled female and I was told she was 3 months old when I got her, she should now be 5months old. BUT I doubted that really much at the beginning, but now im starting to questions my own thought when over the past 2 months she has grown incredible little compared to other...

So I walked in a new reptile shop today and saw they had chameleons! BUT they were like all visible for all the visitors! And they were perfectly calm with lots of people looking up close on them?! I was like, what the heck.. HOW can they be that calm and tame when mine puffs up and runs like a...

Hi! So I´ve heard that lot of people freeze their mealworms so they dont turn to beetles. But I got some questions about this: 1. Will they eat while being frozen? 2. Do we talk about the freezer or just the cooler? 3. If I gutload them before freezing, will they be gutloaded when I feed...

This is a swedish site, but you get the deal : http://www.cyberzoo.se/terrarie-reptil/foder-reptiler/torkade-insekter/ Anyone had any success with feeding this to their chams?

Im leaving home next friday and will be home on sunday night. I can arrange with the food problem easy, just leave a few extra bugs lose and provide her with worms in a bowl. But the WATER! I dont have a mist system, im doing it by hand and got a dripper. She is 4 months old and are in good...

Will mealworms even provide my cham with any nutrition at all? Same thing goes with the mealworm beetles, are they any good? And yes, they both are gutloaded. :)

So, im going to start by saying that my little female veiled is NOT okey with handfeeding. I´ve tried soo many times I cant do it anymore. This whole thing is just in the purpose to build trust with her, she cups feed otherwise. Sooo I got a new idea on how to sort of "handfeed" her. I will...

So I tried that fruit thing with my cham and with GREAT success! Cut 3 thin thin pieces of apple and put it on a stick and when I wook up whe was right there eating the whole thing! :D (She dont have apple as a part of her diet, just an extra treat). What else can I try?? :)

Egg time or just grumpy?

Im getting 100 Blatta laterallis today and got a pretty big tub ready for them. But im consurned that i may be too big since they are so small? Can it be an advantage to have them in a smaller enclosure?

Im working to build trust with my incredible shy baby cham Stella. I try handfeed her as often as I can but she wont always approve with it. So today I approached her slowly with my hand and she started headbang my finger as usually but I let it be until I stopped. Can this be good practice...

I gave her a roach that might have been a bit too big!! She is walkingaround like crazy trying to swallow it!! it is half way down I cant like pull it out or anything ??? :( Help1

I´ve never heard of anyone using these roaches for their chams? Is there something wrong with them? /Prog

So I tried the Sunny D idea, and it turned out great. Except that the beetles I put in it tends to climb down instead of up! So they never gets visible for my cham. Have anyone else had this problem?
