Ok! Finally got some pictures! Took her out for some late day sun basking and she shined nicely. Finally have a few good belly shots of her and a good shot of the pattern she’s been displaying!
Ok, this is her pattern she’s been showing. I noticed he head has almost lavender purple streaking it...
LMAO! Ok, I think I and Peaches are quite possibly air heads... SO! Hypothetically speaking, if she is displaying receptive markings, not saying she is because I’ve no idea if she is or not, but if she is, could she possibly be receptive towards, oh.. I don’t know.. A stuffed toy chameleon I...
She isn’t carrying, I can assure that much. She was thin as a string bean before I opened her door and then she flared on me. Her lil panther casque is a bit bloated, so she’s got a bit of fluff to her, but her belly is thin and when i felt her today she does not have eggs. But yes, she does...
Ok. So I’m new to Panther Chams as far as coloration and.. Frankly, just in general because Peaches is my first Panther. Now, with Veileds I know their receptive and gravid colors pretty well as they were my main keepers for several years.
How ever, I’ve no clue the receptive display for female...
You know.. Depending on your enclosure frame color, leaving it natural may actually look good and give your cage some extra appeal towards the bottom! :D But ultimately, like Brody has said, it’s your taste that matters! You do you, love! It’s going to look stellar!
Man, I don’t know. Me being me I’d sand the hold thing, put a natural stain on it and urethane it and call it a day. But that’s just my opinion. Love natural and rustic looks....
That’s amazing! Love all those Katydids. I would actually love to catch em at night but unfortunately they seem to disappear into thin air when the sun goes down. Maybe they know something I don’t at night?
Glad to know I can feed her a wide variety and not just a couple safe species! Thank you...
Lol, I can vacuum and clean up substrate. I’d rather her be safe than possibly cost her other eye just for my convenience. But I will keep it a option of she doesn’t like a mixed lay bin
Correct! And it’s so cool! I’ve yet to see it myself though, but I’ve come across many that have shown recent signs of using this defense mechanism!
It is actual blood. But it’s crazy because it’s fresh, but not living blood anymore.. Its a weird concept of how they create this blood. I cant...
Horned Toads are actually lizards. They are also referred to as horny toad and/or horn frog. But because they are flat against the ground like a toad/frog, it gives them their name. Edit: Sorry, it helps to give them their name, but is not the main reason! :D
The Katydid is a Great arid-plains...
Ok! So I found a site that lists my native grasshoppers. I’m curious to know if these are save for her?
I looked up Lubbers, and thankfully I’ve only seen one type out on this property, and they are hard to miss. They are the biggest hopper out there. But concerning these hoppers in specific...
That is a Texas Horned Toad, and they are endangered. Highly x.x but thankfully they are making a come back! Had to have permission from the State, and State Parks and Wildlife to be able to handle and study these lil guys. And Ill be careful of the ones I catch.
Now when you say yellow/black...
Ok. I’m going out of town for Labor Day and bringing Peaches(beloved cham) with me. It’s going to be in Comanche Springs, Texas. Really dry and arid. And loaded to the hilt with grasshoppers! I’m out volunteering at the Observatory there, and also studying these lil guys —
It’s a 5,000 acre...
Ok, just got back from Vet. She does not have a eye infection. Her cornea is scarred. Vet said it’s recent too because she’s still trying to use the eye to see even though it’s completely blind. There’s nothing in her eye, or socket, but she’s trying to clean her lens. She said its probably from...
Oh yeah, they are here. Especially here in Texas. I’ll even go as far to say that they are still residing in heavily populated cities like Fort Worth. About 10 years ago I was out in the back yard watching our wild anoles hop around and play when something suddenly made them scatter. I shuffled...
Ok, I’m going to be real here, and people can hate me for it if they want, but this needs to be said. Sad as it is to say it. If sleeping or your video games or your phone or any electronic or any immaterial object that can be easily replaced holds more importance to you than the life and well...
