You will be fine with a short time exposure to that temp. Its on the high end of the range, but not threatening, especially for that short period of time.

Just finished up the full rack today and thought I would share the results. Thanks to Bill at Dragon Strand for the product.

Every once in a great while the female will get on the screen. SHe doesn't really climb around, but she does get on it briefly then gets off.

You need to find a different vet, they are way out of bounds. especially if your only concern is orange urates/dehydration. Get her/make her a dripper and go from there. You do not need to take her in for a fecal. Any vet can do that and simply take the fresh poop in a damp paper towel...

It is an exciting time!! My best advice to you is this: Be ready with plenty of feeders. Like-300-400 a day....

Do not rinse them. If it bothers, get a very small artist paintbrush and brush off the sand. That being said, it does not hurt anything to leave the sand on them.

Cool to your touch.

The fact that you are watching her constantly to make sure she is drinking may be the very thing that is causing her not to drink. You need to leave her alone especially after all she has gone through.

In short, yes.

i hear ya. Try doing that times 30 babies right now......

Standard 6' tall wire shelving from Home Depot or Lowes. 18" deep and 4' wide.

You keep saying that the screen cage is to expensive, however, if you sold the current set up you could easily buy the screen cage. The fact is this, you want to set up a cage that is aestheticly pleasing to you, not what is best foe the animal regardless of what everyone is telling you...

I had originally tried 2 nozzles on the 2x4 cage and found 1 to be enough. With 2 the whole cage was getting wet. Get the system now, I assure you that you will expand. ;)

It may be that you dont have a specific Locale but rather a cross of some type. What were you told it was? Do you have any way to confirm that? Pretty animal either way.

Craig, Out of curiosity, what age are you putting the babies in to this size cage? I am using the smaller cages for 1mo-3mo olds and then moving them into this size cage for the grow out beyond that. Just curious if you are going straight to these or if you have a stage before hand...

I always remove them, and the egg, once I find them. That being said, there are times when they may be in the tub 12+ hours until I get to them which is never a problem.

Picked up some of this from Steve this week as I was not in the mood to make my own!! Stuff looks great and is truly healthy for the animals. I even put a bit in a smoothie to try it out!! Needless to say the insects ate it all. Good stuff here.

I would say that 8 months is not exactly an adult, and he is likely still growing, but him not eating for 2-3 days wont hurt him. If you feed him every day, I would guess that 1 or 2 days without the hand feeding he will take it on his own.

Here is a pic of a Viv for an Abronia. Not a Cham, but it lives in the Cham room!! Ill get some pics of the Cham room in the next day or so.

Ask yourself this, If you had someone who would cater to your every need including hand feeding you food every day, would you want to go hunt for it? Point is, stop hand feeding him for a couple of days and he will get his own food.
