Lily is a little over a year old now and she has laid 3 clutches. The first was 56 eggs, the second was 45 eggs, and the third is 36 eggs 🥚
I know every time she should be laying less which she is, what is the normal/healthy number to lay? Her temps are correct, supplements, and feeding is proper
I’ll definitely buy her more real plants I just didn’t yet and I’ll remove the carpet well it’s not a carpet it’s the lining and it helps keep her branches from sliding but I can always stick them in the plants soil, I just need to keep enough room for her lay bin when it’s time to put it in for...
Well thanks? She killed her tree as you can tell or else it was fuller before. I haven’t replaced her tree yet she had an umbrella plant as you stated I just call it her tree. Seems a bit harsh judging how my enclosure is set up just because it doesn’t have what centerpieces you like?
I’ve been using this fixture since she was born and see everybody using this way, I see more this way than the lamp fixture. What about the heat lamp? Can I keep the ballast for that? It’s not about money to me it’s just about what’s right.
@Beman I have followed your feed/supp schedule you gave me months ago and I just wanted to verify every feeding she gets some sort of supp since it’s 3-4 times a week correct?
Oh Lily actually enjoyed her bath and didn’t puff or stress but she’s also very mellow. I read that CERTAIN fruits help actually and a good supplement, I got her the pears without sugar 🙂 Also her cage definitely meets the measurements for the lighting. I appreciate you!
My sweet Lily is turning a year old next month and I have been watching over the past few weeks that she hadn’t pooped at all and only left two huge urates. I started doing research and here’s what I found to help relieve constipation:
Pears🍐 (eaten off spoon)
Applesauce🍎 (eaten off spoon)
Warm...
She laid 45 eggs this time, last time it was 56 so we’re making progress! I use your supplement schedule and feeding days and overtime I’m sure they will slowly get smaller 💚
So this early afternoon I discovered yet another odd looking urate but this time it seems to have a jelly-like substance to it. (The screen covers the bowl that acts as a water catcher from her dripper)
Lily just did lay (infertile eggs) last week (wasn’t sure if this impacts heated?) and her...
OH YES, most definitely! I was happy she went down from 56 to 45. When you said couple dozen I remember that’s what I had read previously to keep them healthy and to live longer lives = less eggs 🥚
So if you have been keeping up with Lily we know she laid her first clutch of 56 which was quite a bit. She laid her second clutch two days ago and she laid 45!
I’m hoping this means my feeding schedule I was recommended on here to do is working. She eats 3 days a week, dustings on her crickets.
It seems like that’s so little food for a Cham who turns 8 months ina week? I’ve read mixed things and the medium would be 5-6 based off everything I’ve read. She ate pretty good up until she had her first clutch. I fed her very well after she laid like suggested and now we’re on the 3 days a...
I am currently writing down November’s weekly schedule and can’t thank you enough for this helpful information! Lily is 8 months almost and was curious how many crickets can I give her during the schedule? It says 3-4 but they’re medium size cricks. On Saturday and Sunday do they not get...
I was talking about how Lily was digging/preparing to lay the other day on another post of mine but I wanted to make a new one because she finally laid her eggs!
This afternoon I noticed Lily’s shadow up in the tree again and on her beaches, I looked in and her lay bin was covered up and she...
