It’s been a while since I’ve posted about the parsons, They were moved from old smaller enclosures into a new purpose build shed, both have large floor to ceiling enclosures, 7ft long, planted and with their own access to outdoor 6ft long sunrooms for warmer days. The shed is also fitted with...

Soooo continuing the Chameleon forums sub forum for spider keepers:D:ROFLMAO: Today I got my new Tarantula which is amusing because I am terrified of spiders, but one of the things for me is not knowing one is there and being startled so I’m hoping that studying this animal under a more...

Happy Halloween Chameleon keepers!! especially AZ, hope you like the surprise. Sorry to make you wait! :p I wanted to share my first carved pumpkin, other than the usual ones I’ve done in the past with triangles for eyes and zig zag teeth.:LOL: I live in the U.K and this year I went to a...

As some of you know I have a pair of CB parsons, the male was just 60g when I got him just over a year ago, here he is June 2016, so very small and very nervous. @jamest0o0 you asked what weight he is now, I've just weighed him and he's 470g, he consistently puts on an average of 25g per...

Another one of my posts with no real reason or purpose just to say how much I love my little Peregrin! I can't believe I am so lucky to have him, he is the gentlest, sweetest, calmest little man, he goes out in an outdoor run everyday, all I have to do is stand in the doorway hold my hand out...

I thought I'd begin a new parson shed thread as this will be ongoing, @Remkon I hope you will post how you are getting on too:) Well work has begun on the new Parson shed- it's 12x8ft and most of it will be given over to them, with enough room for the xanth as this will be a 'cool' shed with...

So some of you know I'm obsessed about painting Chameleons and beetles- I love my beetles! , I've painted quite a few but never one in Acrylics of my most treasured and loved Panther Mr Jolly, which I felt guilty about and had to address. I love all my chams but he is special, one in a million...

Part of my everyday regime- weather permitting -i'm in the U.K -is getting everyone out in their outdoor enclosures- the parsons have always had access- usually 10am -5pm everyday and am working on the same for the xanth and the panther @Andee I know you say you let your chams have sunshine...

so this is my jumping spider Rosie's new hobbit/fairy/too many pink flowers type house- I was naively hoping she may of used the finely crafted :LOL: little house hanging from the ceiling but she decided not. She is adorable- with her beautiful eyes, peachy blushed pink and cream faced and...

Not that I'm obsessed :LOL: but I've painted another picture of my lovely little veiled- It is always a pleasure to study the patterns and scales on them and this was a treat to paint him again, He's growing up to be such a handsome little man and great fun to have around, I'm besotted with him...

Finally got around to painting some more chameleons - This is Peregrin my young veiled- It was fun painting him, I adore him, he's such a sweet little chap, so it was extra special fun and nice to study him so closely. The paintings are about 4" square and in acrylics and I enjoyed painting...

Hi all, anyone ever kept or are keeping this species of Boa, I hear they are a super calm, medium sized, terrestrial Boa. Any thoughts would be interesting. There is a cites paperwork,chipped, CB female-super super calm for sale and I'm kind of interested. Thanks.

There's some eggs of the Chinese Oak Silkmoth Antheraea pernyi for sale here and wondered if the larvae would be suitable as food- they are slightly hairy but nice and big. Has anyone kept/bred/ fed them? Are the easy/poisonous/difficult? Thanks all

O.K- so i bought some Fimo- polymer clay you can bake in the oven, and made me some brooches- I have to admit I had a great deal of fun making them, a bit of escapism and relaxation-but they are in the research and development phase of manufacture so be kind!:LOL: now I can wear a parsons badge...

Just wanted to share these photos of Rosie the Phidippus Regius, She is about 10mm across I think, she's out and about quite a bit, yesterday she ate a stick insect- see photos- today a hatchling locust and a calciworm so quite an appetite- she is so sweet- these are the first photos I had where...

Just wanted to share pics of Rosie @Miss Lily - she's my new regal jumping spider, she's about 1cm from toe to toe and she's very cute,not very good pictures but i was juggling concentrating on the camera and focusing and also making sure this arachnid didn't jump out and attack me! :LOL: She...

Apologies if this is common knowledge but I thought it might be useful to others- I found my darling veiled wasn't that bothered about eating his greens if they wilted- which they do in minutes- so now everyday when he goes out in his glasshouse- which he just loves- he loves the space and...

O.k so I've been able to put the boy outdoors for the last few weeks- nice temp and he's loving being able to get out and sun bathe- under screening!- I have been amazed at how much he's changing colour- not huge but enough to notice- his head is whiter- he has a blue-pink-grey hue in his...
