I understand your situation with finding a vet. I work at a veterinary clinic, we are the only clinic in the area that will even look at exotics... and even we do not have lots of experience with them. I rescued a female veiled with sighns of sever MBD a little over a year ago. It was A LOT of...

Just wondering if there is a deworming protocol for reptiles. I've read a few different things on deworming and different protoza not necessarily being harmful... I had a fecal exam done for my Chinese Water Dragon 'Austin' a year ago or so and it was negative. I'm just noticing my Chameleons...

Thanks so much guys, I will look into and order!

hey, I'm looking for a good reptile magazine to order. i've checked out all of the stores in my area and nothing. Does anybody know where I could purchase a subscription? or is it even worth purchasing ?? any suggested books would be great too. I have a veiled chameleon, a Chinese Water Dragon...

Hey guys i can't seem to find good literature on the habits of milk snakes and precautions to take in case the snake is a female... are they like chameleons in that they lay eggs regardless of being bred? if so at what age should I watch out for this ? my husband bought me a milk snake for...

I will admit I do not have years of experience with chameleons specifically, however I have worked with animals for 8 years, and I think regardless of the yes or no answer to that question I think is more important to be careful. If the animal is receptive to the food item being ''put'' in...

Does anyone have any experience with picky chameleons? My girl can be so frustrating sometimes. Since rescuing her in Dec 2010 I have always hand fed her. she ususlly has a good apetite except for the 4 weeks before laying she decreases the amount of food items she will take. Her wt on Oct19/11...

Wow, love it! did you build it? if so what kind of screen was used? Did you need to polyurithane the wood used? my little gal doesn't realy need that large of a set up but that looks wicked. I have decided that I hate this Canadian climate! It would never/rarley be warm enough where I live to...

Thanks for the ideas! the problem is honestly a little bit of both. Your ideas should actually work quite nicely!

Does anybody have suggestions for keeping the water from misting confined to the enclosure? (I have a ''mesh'' style enclosure as reccomended for my cham) it is partially enclosed with a decorative foam peice that I purchased to help to keep the humididy up and the heat in... I sadly don't live...

I went through a similar situation with my little girl. the running joke with my co-workers is she obviously didn't read the text book on egg laying. It is possible that I am just an over protective mommy and caught the signs super early, but Georgia took well over a month from the time I...

Yes I did use a small amount of Cod Liver Oil ( source of vitamin A ) as O.K'D by the vet. Also increased the amount of H20... The other suggestions for laxatives seem to check out too. I will try to put actual pics of my girl on here soon. I do not have the internet where I live, so I will need...
