Although I don't know his hatch date, I do know what day I received Pop-Tart. On December 29th 2015 I received Pop-Tart and he was supposed to be 6-8 weeks old. So, he should be a year old now. We haven't been on for a while so we thought we'd stop and catch up. In voice of Pop-Tart I've grown...

I bought about 60 hornworms from mulberry farms about 2 weeks ago. They were healthy; and I was so pleased with my purchase. I just got home from a week in the hospital. I had someone caring for my pets while I was gone. When I returned I discovered most of my hornworms to be dead. Slowly over...

Guys, I think I found the cheapest and easiet emergency enclosure. A pop up hamper. I bought one that unzips on the top and the side. Pop-Tart has to spend some time outside tomorrow, for quit a while. I won't be home and I'm nervous about other people watching over him. I came up with this. I'm...

I weighed Pop-Tart today. He is 73 grams. He's about 7 months old now. Is his weight okay? Most recent photo attached.

I was wondering if any one has been bit while hand feeding? Pop-Tart hasn't bitten me, yet. I'm curious because he's no longer afraid of my hand. He will walk right up and munch on food from my hand. He doesn't always use his tongue though. I'm a bit nervous he might bite my hand on accident...

So today I opened my cricket bin to get Pop-Tart some food. I picked up a toilet paper roll that was in there to shake some crickets into my cup. On the bottom I noticed a huge pile of white things. For a brief moment I panicked thinking flies had gotten in, and they were maggots. I poked at...

In prep for moving Pop-Tart into his larger set up I bought some more goodies. They're in his original set up so he can get use to them.

Hey guys. I got Pop-Tart from Lll Reptile. I was wondering how many of his "brother" and "sisters" are on here. If you have an Lll Reptile cham, can you please share a pic with basic info? Age, gender, etc. On the prowl by hagmegsis posted Jun 2, 2016 at 12:00 PM

So, I've been poking around at new feeder options. Where I currently live I'm not aloud any type of roach. I've found some fly and mantis options. What feeders can I feed daily with out harming Pop-Tart? Like I know some feeders are too high in fat and what not.

So the drip system I have is terrible. It either drips too much or hardly at all. I got tired of fidgeting with it. The constant leaking, or lack of, was a pain. I decided to try and idea. I poked a small hole in the bottom of a water bottle. I set it on top of my set up and gave it a wait. It...

I've been browsing through various species and their information. There are so many amazing species though, so I kind of want them all. I'm not looking to get another chameleon for quit some time. Maybe a 1yr or more. So veild are one of the easiest to care for because they're pretty...

Call me paranoid, but I'm always worried if I'm giving Pop-Tart enough calcium. Does he seem to be developing okay to y'all? I don't see any mbd myself, but I definitly don't want to risk over looking it. I use calcium with out d3 every day, except for twice a month when I use calcium with d3...

I've been browsing the multitude of post on here about feeding cicada. It seems there's no conclusive answer. Some say go for it, others say they carry risk. Can any one help out by just making a simple pro con list? I don't want to poison Pop-tart, but heard Cicada are great nutrionally. I have...

So, hoping to finally finish this enclosure some time this week. I have corrugated plastic board for the floor and "roof". This way I can remove the bottom to wash it. Under that it will still have mesh so bugs don't get out.The walls are lined with screen door mesh. I'm planning to add more...

Hey guys. I'm going to try to examine some of Pop-Tarts droppings this weekend to see if he needs treated. I tried to do a little research on dewormers but so far the only definite thing I found was nothing ivermectin based. I'm an avid equestrian; and actually spent years selling dewormers...

So, I've managed to set up my own cricket breeding setup. I looked online and browsed through the forums but wasn't able to find exactly what I was wanting to know. How often should I check the soil for eggs? Also, I bought 50 crickets. That should be enough to start the process, correct? I...

Hey guys. It's finally summer here in Ohio and I'm trying to give Pop-Tart some real sun light. I figured he'd appreciate the real uvb. He hates it though. In his terrarium or on my hand he gets angry. His terrarium can be moved outside easily so that he never has to leave it, and yet he still...

I was browsing through my photos and realized just how much my little boy has grown. Pop-Tart went from the size of my pinky to the size of my hand. Where does the time go? He was 6 weeks when I got him. Now he's about 6 months. These photos progress month to month. He's had some major spurts...

I had previously shared my issue with Pop-tart getting upset over feeding time. He would only eat free range. Any time myself or tweezers would get near him he would turn dark, hiss, and lunge. Last night and today we had a break through. I reduced the amount of crickets I was feeding him by...

It's finally warm enough in Ohio to catch various bugs/insects. My yard is pesticide free. We don't spray any chemicals at all. I was trying to find a list of safe worms in Ohio that I can catch and feed my guy. Roaches and beetles are pretty much a no. The owner of the home I live in says lady...
