This is Zippy, 4-5 month old male sarima. I have had him for around 3-4 weeks now. The pic below was taken a week ago.
This picture shows him starting to show some colour. I took the pic today and I'm so happy to see some colour beginning to show.
I was wondering what time does everyone have their viv lights come on and for how long. When do they turn off and what light routine suits your own routine?
What is the best method to feed fruit flies. Do you leave a tub/cultre in the enclusre or do you put the amount you need into a cup and tip into the viv as and when needed?

Hi, I thought I would share pictures of my first Panther. I only collected him Thursday and he seems to be settling in very quickly. Within a space of 20 minutes of being in his new home he was happily eating fruit flies. These are his first pictures.
I have yet to name him. Thinking of...
Has anyone seen the new Repashy Calcium Supplements. There are 3 types avaliable - With Low, Moderate, and High Levels of Vitamin D3. These supplements offer you the ability to control how much vitamin D3 you are providing. Are these any good for Chams?
Ok, I'm confused. I have a young Panther coming within the next month and I need guidance on what set up i should use to house him.
I have a yemen and at the time I brought him I was not too clued up on what I needed and I believe I was miss sold theviv and equipment. I was told I needed a...
Today I put down a deposit for a male ambilobe sirama but they guy also has some newly hatched joffraville in which i was told nobody anywhere in the uk has. I feel tempted to go for the joffraville although they are not as colourful compared to the sirama? What to do?:(
Phil
Does anyone own a Joffraville? they look stunning and I was thinking of getting one as my first panther although they are expensive here in the uk.

I am sorry if this question has been asked before but I can not find information on what type of schefflera plan't are safe. In my local garden centre (nutcutts) they had some nice size schefflera emeraled green's but i held off from buying one until i could find more information about them...
I think I have over done it on fly's lol. I always grow flys on from maggots as a treat for my cham but I accidently over did it when I put some maggots in a box (i only ment to put a few in and forgot to remove the remainder) and when i opened it up inside the chams enclosure loads came flying...
My Yemen's crest is pale in colour compared to the rest of it's body. Is this normal or a health problem?
The only reason i ask is that on all the pictures I've seen of others people's Yemen's, I have noticed that their crests are of the same colouration as to the their bodies.
Apart...
Has anyone tried feeding their chams fruit beetle grubs (PACHNODA). I got some last week, I have only giving one but that was an experince as they are nasty big things to handle but my cham seemed to enjoy it.
Phil
Some day soon I want to have a Panther but I have little clue in what varity to have. Any suggestions of which type to go for?
There is a guy in the uk waiting on eggs to hatch at the moment. He will have ambilobe, picasso, joffraville, sirama, and nose fally all ready to hatch. I have...
I've been in chatting to this guy on another forum who suggets that it is ok to keep more than one Yemen together provided you care for them and provide enough space. I just wondered what everyones thoughts were on this?
How big would enough space be?
Phil
Here are two pics of my new set up.
This is before I started. I'm very rough looking in the pic as I was recovering from a hangover - well that is my excuss:D
Completed viv apart from a few bits and bobs I need to add.
Phil
I am looking for a good quality flexarium from 35 gl up wards.
If anyone has one for sale please do contact me via sending a message.
I live in the UK so ideally if I could get one from someone in the same country that would be helpful due to costs of sending.
Thank You
Phil
