Hi all, long time no see! I don't currently have chameleons or any reptiles, but I do have a superworm feeder breeding project going for fun (and dubias, but they are not ready to offer yet!) and thought some locals might appreciate a reliable source of good staple feeders, especially those...
Just as the title says, I am in search of a 1.2 group of pygs of any of the common three species. Must be able to ship to Oregon.
They will inhabit this tank and be very well cared for.
Thank you for any tips and leads you may have!
Hi. It's been a while. I have one old man panther left, my favorite dude, Genmaicha. He is over five now for sure. He lives in my backyard during the summer and begs food from guests every chance he gets. He is easy going and puppy-like at times. He also has had an amazing array of colors...
Meet my two Asian vine snakes!
These guys are so cool- they are basically kept the same way that chameleons are. They need pretty high humidity, drink dew, need live plants and airflow, and a basking spot of about 90. They eat house geckos and anoles and I will be working on setting up a...
I was going to set up my first saltwater tank but never got around to it. This filter is brand new, still in the box, and comes with everything in the kit. I don't know much about it other than that it is a great filter that can be used for either salt or fresh water tanks up to 90 gallons and...
Hey guys, I thought that you might like to see something I made for a friend. She requested some earrings in the shape of chameleons and capybaras. I finished the capybaras last night and am about to finish the chameleon ones tonight. I still need to put a protective layer of sealant on...
Hey guys, I can't believe I only now thought of this, but I finally got a small hand style fine mister and it occurred to me today to pump it up and hang it on the edge of my cage to spray the chams for several minutes at a time. This is nice because I don't have to stand there and can...
Hey guys, I have been thinking of making this thread for a while now.
I have noticed that the different insects I keep have very obvious taste preferences as far as food goes. Most of the time, I give two forms of gutload- a blended wet mix and a blended dry mix. I maintain my colonies...
Hi guys,
As some of you know, I have been "babysitting" two veileds for the last three months. It was only supposed to be a month and their owner has not been in contact with me since dropping them off with and neither he nor his girlfriend have responded to my messages.
I do not have the...
An update...I took these of Genmaicha today. One is entered in the photo contest. His original ones can be found on the first and second pages of this thread.
At rest he is navy blue on darker navy blue or light blue on light yellow. Sleeping right now, he is light blue bar on light...
A friend of mine posted this awesome slideshow of arachnids by Ken the Bug Guy on MySpace. I thought I would share. I love the cobalt blue tarantula in there....

Hi guys, I picked this guy up from Pam's tonight. I thought you might enjoy some photos of him being feisty. When he calms down, I will snap some more. He is a very interesting ambilobe and I have never seen one like him. At rest, everything but his face is very pale. Some photos are very...
I am chamsitting an acquaintances two veileds (coincidentally the parents of my recent little clutch)
The female had a bit of swelling on her lip and when I looked, there was nothing there. I decided to keep an eye on it. This was last week. Today I was cleaning cages and she gaped at me...
....I did a painting for the first time in over a year tonight. You will have to excuse finger tips and poor photo quality. I used metallic water colors and sharpie on black card stock. It is very, very shimmery in person and electric in color. I took four photos, each with different...
I spotted Darjeeling sleeping in a cute "bed" of sorts that fit his studly body perfectly.
I decided to try Gesang's advice and wake him with another male to see if he would fire up.
Matcha picked up some of the best colors I have seen on him. Here he is earlier today...
Okay, so I was feeding the chams some enrichment feeders today and Darjeeling was having a hard time of it.
He did fine with the first one and seemed to love it. When I offered him the second one, he zeroed in on it super quick and ran down to get it. The bug kept sticking to my hand (it was...
Hi guys, I thought you might like it if I shared a video of my male Jackson's enjoying a snail.
Snails are thought to be relished by montane species and are a good source of calcium and a great addition to a varied diet.
I raise my own snails to assure that they are parasite and chemical...
Hey guys, a very local to me reptile show is coming up. It is a very cute little show with lots of dragons, snakes and some frogs and tortoises. There are even some inverts!
There don't seem to be many chams most of the time- a few veileds here and there but that is it. All of the animals...
Hey guys, I thought I should finally share some photos of my little melleri. He is CH from FLchams and is around 6.5 months old and weighs 14 grams. He had a bit of a chill when I first got him but he is doing much better now and seems content. :) I have had him for a few weeks and have been...
