    Certainly could be! Lots of maggots and larvae are very similar. Doesn't look like any kind of "worm" to me though.

    Look like fruit fly maggots to me, or similar.

    Stupid lizard is gravid AGAIN.

    My approach back when I was breeding veileds... in the dark ages... was to only feed every other day. That cut the clutch sizes down immediately from 50+ to about 30 (if memory serves). But I don't recall whether it changed the number of clutches per year.

    Michi Meets Dr. Cornelius Squibble

    Sugar gliders are pretty high maintenance the first few weeks to get them to acclimate but we're making good progress with Squibbles. Michi really does seem curious and comes over to his cage to see what's going on.

    Wife wants a Nosy, I want an Ambilobe

    Oh, I'm a big ambilobe fan. Michi in my avatar is my first blue bar. I adopted him and although he's got a range of colors he's not "stunning." I've seen some amazing specimens of blue bar. Seriously though, with panthers they're all just so frickin' amazing. If you like the blue, check out an...

    Veiled Chameleon Enclosure Questions

    You're on the right track. The xl reptibreeze is pretty much the standard for larger chams like that. As far as climbing/hiding/basking accessories do a google search and see what others have done. You just sort of wing it and build it up over time. You see him spending time in one place so you...

    Horn worms

    Also check your local Craigslist. We have a dubia breeder here that also gets pretty inexpensive BIG hornworms. I found her via Craigslist.

    Stupid lizard is gravid AGAIN.

    The only thing I've ever known to work well is diet restriction, which you say you're already doing. Wish I had better advice.

    Smaller bugs vs larger bugs?

    Michi much prefers to eat large winged dubia over crickets. And he won't touch the un-winged dubia. Based on that, and the fact that they're a better value and so much easier to keep and maintain, I'll stick with the big bugs.

    Wife wants a Nosy, I want an Ambilobe

    It is a spectacular specimen for sure but be advised I would not call that typical.

    Fantastic photos! Love the Namaqua chams.

    Wife wants a Nosy, I want an Ambilobe

    Captive bred Nosy Be are mostly blue and green. You'll get some red speckles in there, and some yellow, but that overall blue coloration is the charm that most people buy them for.

    Michi Meets Dr. Cornelius Squibble

    So we went to the Exotic Show this weekend and once I realized it was animals and not women, I found a cute new member of the family. We set him up right next to Michi's cage and it was interesting that Michi seemed curious enough to come down and eyeball him.

    What a bone head. LOL.

    Michi's First Day in the Sun

    Although it's not very warm, at 55 degrees F the full sun should be OK for awhile. This is probably Michi's first ever exposure to direct sunlight. He seems skeptical but I think he's enjoying himself. Clouds are rolling in now so I may have to bring him in but half an hour of this is great!

    "Lightyourreptiles" chameleon lighting systems

    You have to understand what you're buying. You're buying "Light fixtures" and "bulbs." The light fixture's job is only to power the bulb. Fixtures such as those from LYR contain reflectors which make the output brighter than it would normally be in a regular fixture without a reflector. What...

    Carpet Chameleon Care Sheet

    Frank this is great information! The care sheet is very detailed and thorough. I'm still in love with this species ever since I got a WC pair about 20 years ago.
