Thanks Dave! Calling all POOP experts, can you take a look at this and tell me if it is normal (normal that is for a cham that didn't eat for 7 days straight, then laid 88 eggs, then hasn't pooped in about 5 days even though she has eaten 10-12 large crickets every day) She started pooping...

Great news everyone.... SHE JUST POOPED!! :D Thanks to you all for your suggestions, I think we gave all of them a go so can't say for sure what did it. We dabbed some olive oil on a cricket and a wax worm and fed her, hoping to get things moving. The this morning I attempted to give her...

Thanks everyone!! :D The tank does have a mesh top, so it's not completely glass. Is one mesh side enough or would you still recommend completely mesh? How do you control the temperature with mesh sides? At the moment, we have just been able to get the temperature up to 30, and that is...
