about 3/4's of an in of my veiled's tail looked burned and fell off. Now another 3/4's of an inch is black and looks burned again? However, I don't think it's getting burned, I think it's a disease... Thoughts?

So I have 22 silkworms that are getting big, and I would like to hopefully get some eggs, but I have a quick question. When they start cocooning, and once they are in their cocoons, and once they are moths, do they need to stay at the same temperature they were at when they were worms?

dust silkworms and dubias?

never thought about having the hibiscus not in the cage....:o So if I was to get one, how do you go about teaching the cham that they are supposed to eat the leaves?

Is it weird that I'm so excited? I ordered from www.theroachranch.com the owner, Ian, is a really nice guy, quick replies to any email question, very helpful. I got about 150 mixed, very well packaged and I didn't see even one dead one. Shipped fast. I thought I would be creeped out...

Being a gardening idiot, can anyone tell me if Mulberry trees can grow in Massachusetts? Or are they a warm-weather tree? Any info would be greatly appreciated!

I just replaced all the screens on our camper, it's so easy. I would just replace them. You can get all the materials at Home Depot or Lowes. You should take a piece of the rubber spline with you so you can get the same size...

I really want to just order some silkworm eggs, and I've read a ton of threads about them, and watched a ton of youtube videos on raising them, but I am nervous about keeping the temperature up. I've been trying to figure out how to build an incubator/something to keep the babies in. Anyone...

From reading on here, I have learned that their poop should be white if they are well hydrated. I was wondering though, because mine (the chams, really) is always like white falling out of a black outer "tube" Maybe some of the more experienced keepers could post pictures of all types of...

Yeah, I forgot, 2 females about 4 - 5 months old. Yours is sooooo cute!

Posted this in the general forum before seeing this thread...

Found them sleeping next to each other... I wish they were facing the other way, would have been an even better picture...

Looks like she's got her color back, she's drinking water and eating crickets, so it's looking good. Just weird that she turned gray for a few days....

So I have 2, 4 month old female veileds, and they eat crickets like crazy, but I thought I'd try superworms. I put 4 in the cage thinking they'd each eat 2. But I only saw one of my chams eat one worm. anyway, after a while I looked in the cage and didn't see any more worms, but since I put...

I guess I meant more, how often should I expect them to shed?

I did do a search, so I apologize if this has been answered before, but at what age do they tend to shed? I see lots of threads about them shedding, but not any where they talk about at what age? It's a veiled, if that matters.

So I got 7 small hissing and 1 dubia cockroaches, and I just thought I could dump them in the chams cage. They just sat on the bottom and didn't move. I did see one of the chams catch one, but am I supposed to cup feed them? Will they eventually move enough to get noticed, or will they...

Right now, I have 2, 4 month old veileds, and I saw some people on youtube breeding pill bugs, looks easy so I want to try. But my question is when they say not to feed more than once a week (for example) does that mean one singular bug, or one feeding of that bug? I hope that's clear...

Hello everyone! Quick intro, I was at a reptile show looking for frogs really when a cham caught my eye. Was very intrigued, so I asked a ton of questions, which the lady seemed to answer well, so I ended up buying 2 chams on the spot, and all the accessories, but now that I found this forum...
