    simply eating less or problem?

    Might adding silk worms and an occasional horned worm help this problem? He's had dehydration problems in the past. I know horned worms can help hydrate. How might you suggest boosting vitamin B?

    simply eating less or problem?

    its def cooler. but raising basking temp makes him gape. I also watched him shoot and miss about 3 times today. Seems like he's been missing more and more.

    simply eating less or problem?

    My 9 mth Ambilobe male is eating less. He was a bit dehydrated with orange urate but I corrected it with an early morning misting cycle (before the lights come on) and added a dripper, which he seems to take advantage of here and there. Now he has white urate. Nonetheless, I'm lucky to see him...

    Dehydrated?

    Yeah I do drip on his nose, well spray his nose and he sometimes will drink. I couldn't see why I'd need to add a dripper since there is plenty of water on the plants to drink. I wonder if there are other reasons for orange urate. He seems pretty healthy otherwise. I'm going to try the first...

    Dehydrated?

    So I noticed my 9 mth old Ambilobe PC's Urine was orange. I increased the auto misting cycle to every two hours for 7 minutes a cycle. It's a large cage with big umbrella plants and it takes that long to saturate. I fed him some horned worms and started spraying him with warm water, sometimes...
