    Electra’s egg saga.

    Well, that sure was quick. She wastes no time. Thankfully, no prolapse this time. Yay! 🥳 If this is how bearded dragons do, I’m surprised that Australia isn’t totally over run with them. Maybe the cane toads eat them. 😏

    Looking for feedback on my lighting layout (Panther Chameleon enclosure)

    Seems that for some animals, roaches are an acquired taste. Keep offering them though, along with a variety of other healthy staple feeders. I have no idea what you know/don’t know, so forgive if I act like a mother hen. 😁🐥 Adding a graphic for feeders and what to gutload/feed them with. I like...

    Electra’s egg saga.

    Un-freaking believable! She’s at it digging AGAIN!!! Is this how life is going to be now? Every month she’s going to produce eggs? She saw my male once… months ago! Good Lord! I can’t imagine how many babies there would be had I let them get together! I’m expecting the cloaca prolapse again...

    Looking for feedback on my lighting layout (Panther Chameleon enclosure)

    Very nice! Your lighting looks fine. You may want to put your plant lighting on the diagonal too. Your plants will grow towards it and it could leave them with some wonky shapes. Definitely need many more branches for your guy to travel. Make sure they are different diameters to properly...

    Most reptile keepers are queer?

    Complex subject! My belief is that we are all a bit of ‘all of the above’, whether we admit it to ourselves or the world. Here’s my short take on it. As who we are is becoming better understood and accepted in society, reptiles are being better understood and accepted similarly.

    Female veiled chameleon laid eggs

    26 is a decent number of eggs. You definitely don’t want that number any higher, as it really takes so very much out of your girls to produce and higher numbers can lead to higher incidence of problems. I’m more concerned about her not being ravenously hungry. Let’s see how she does today...

    How do I get the humidity up in my enclosure?

    It looks like your hygrometer is outside of the enclosure. Try putting one inside and see what readings you get. I don’t know if one of the smart type ones (like Govee) would offer better info.

    How do I get the humidity up in my enclosure?

    Hi. What kind of chameleon are you getting? 54% is a bit high for a veiled and in the range for a panther. What level of humidity are you aiming for?

    SMALL bubble on side of mouth after chugging water

    I’m going to say to keep the vet appointment and make sure to take a fresh poo sample for parasite testing. Whether it is a respiratory infection or not, it’s possible that something else is going on as the reason for him chugging water. I would suggest getting some labs drawn if you can to...

    Any luck finding him?

    My tortoise escaped and I am freaking out

    Yikes! My only experience with tortoises is watching the wild ones that visit my yard and watching Garden State Tortoise and a couple of others. I have no idea how to find him, other than letting your neighbors know to watch for him and maybe even putting up some posters, like is done for dogs...

    Currently prepping a grow tent enclosure

    @ehdee6 gave the answer about the lights…add another basking branch of the correct distance from the uvb. When/if she stops walking the top screen, you can remove the extra branch. So…all of these colors and no new pics? 🥺 That’s ok…little honey needs to get fully settled in. Does your petite...

    Glacier Country Viv. Build

    Ok. It was the very bottom layer that I didn’t understand what it was and was wondering about drainage management, so you answered all my questions. If you can’t find a happy spot to direct the mist heads to, maybe there is some way or something that you can put to redirect the water flow. I...
