Anyone good at sexing baby kinyongia boehmei? I have two babies that I hatched three and half months ago and am trying to work out their sex. Their heads are very red so I'm leaning towards females but input would be appreciated. Thanks

Is there any information on what the correct daily levels of protein, fat, moisture, bits and minerals and also carbohydrates chameleons need daily at all? I need the info for a assignment to see how my current feeding plan compares to what they need.

So yesterday my boss told me he had got me a present. I work in a reptile shop so today I went to pick him up. Was told Bradypodion thamnobates but think he could be a transvaalense Ride home In his new cage Sorry about the bad iPhone pics

Yesterday my female laid 36 eggs. These look infertile but could be fertile from retained sperm but to me they do look infertile. She dug her hole in her laying bin as usual which is a micture of sand and soil right to the bottom as any female would but then has come out and went back into...

My female panther who laid a clutch on the 14th June is now receptive once again. She is showing all her peachy pick colours and cruising the cage in search of a mate. This has been going on for a good 2-3 weeks. She laid 38 eggs last time that turned out to be infertile. I put this down to...

I recently got a bag of sticky tongue farms vit all to try an my crickets seem to like it. I usually use bug burger dry with a mixture of fresh fruit and veg to add moisture. Not seen many others use vit all though. Anyone else use it? How do you find it?

I was just explaining to someone the different brands of uv bulb and how long each lasts. I have always read and been told Exo terra bulbs need replacing every four to six months. I know they have had an overhaul of their uv bulbs and they now say they will give off good levels of uv for a full...

Here are some pictures of my male ambilobe enjoying the sun. his colours seem to get better everyday! (Sorry for the large pictures!)

Today I was flicking through an old magazine of mine from a few years back when the arcadia T5 HO bulbs first became available for sale here in the UK. It shows comparative readings between their T8 bulbs and their T5 HO bulbs. There has been a lot of debate and a few posts recently on here...

I had a female panther lay quite a large clutch of 38 eggs 13-14 days ago now. I have been keeping them at 18c to recreate a diapause. It seems very few, if any are fertile as most seem to have or be moulding. This was the females first clutch. I have spoke to someone who said if she has a...

I notice a lot of people mainly use 5.0 bulbs but wondered what uv bulb and brands you use for what species. I use the Arcadia 12% T5 HO bulbs on my veileds and panthers in smaller cages and in adult cages and have done for the past year and a half. What do you use?

Just a few pictures of my male ambilobe from the past few weeks. He was born in October 2012

Some of you may have seen my recent thread of my female panther who i feel is receptive. Not knowing her exact age I did not know whether to breed her or not as she was estimated at nine/ nearly 10 months. I may have managed to get her breeders details so I can find out her actual age. Over...

I have a female ambilobe who is currently showing receptive colours. I do not know her exact age but I and a few breeders estimated she was four months when I got her. She is now supposedly about nine months old coming up to 9 months. A few people and breeders have said I could breed her as she...

My female ambilobe will be coming up to 6 months very soon so i want to get her a laying bin sorted just incase she decides she wants to lay infertiles despite her lowered temps and reduced feeding regime. With my female veiled I used pure play sand, damp so it was able to hold a tunnel. I...

I have used bug burger for a few months and have now run out. I have noticed people use Superload too. I know bug burger can be fed wet in blocks but I tend to feed it dry anyway! Is one better than the other or are they both good? I feed a variety of fresh fruit and veg too so this is just a...

So we have the Arcadia HO T5 lighting which many members have tested and used for a while now with great results. Zoo med have now made their own T5 lighting that comes in 5.0 and 10.0 bulbs. has anyone got these yet? Personally I feel more comfortable with Arcadia as I have regular contact...
