I always had such odd names for pets, and had a few parakeets back in my younger years. Arista, Phoenix, Griffen and Chloe....tho Griff and Chloe repeated in names for bunnies as well.
My poor mom and the zoo she housed for me!!! Ha!! I'm happy to be able to start a chance tradition with my...
Anything Les Claypool, Clutch, Tool, Tom Waits, The Breeders, Dropkick Murphy, GG Alin,
Hank III, Frank Zappa I love old school Dizzy Gillespie, Charlie Parker, Nat Cole, & even some of the new Rap like Post Malone
We have issues getting our PetCo baby to eat anything non mobile as well....and he is so small opening his mouth for meds is horrible even with many tricks...
What I've resorted to as all meds seem to instantly kill the crickeys, we put it literally on the back of supwrworms. I can see if it...
I thint this is spot on as well. Approaching the whole thing as non confrontational, nonaccusary, etc....key to the whole thing.
Maybe you could come up with a list of tasks your brother could complete and check off dailu that are prior to you doing your "chores" with the Cham, that way you...
Jackson Chams aren't an easy pet. They are very rewarding and beautiful to enjoy for many years, but sizing down especially after just getting it, can be harmful and as @JapSolum said, it is the equivalent to keeping a dog in a crate 20 hrs a day. People do it, but it's a cruel way to go, and...
Our Jackson took one Dubai, and then went to the top of his cage and wouldn't touch them. Had to dig them out the next morning and go on to the next , was really hoping to have those as a staple as well, but we will see when he's a bit larger as well.
I know the crickets smell is enough to...
If Gus doesn't eat 2-3 crickets before bedtime and I don't fish them all out, I have resorted to putting a small carrot down on the bottom of the cage and any further absconders come to surface bb am, plus they have left my sweetie alone as well.
But, Jackson's, or I should say mine has taken...
She is a stunner!!
I can't wait to get into a larger sized Cham, our Jackson male looks like a flea in comparison to the big girls and boys I get to see loving life here❤️❤️❤️
We have a very active, friendly less than a year old Jackson Male who lunges to get onto my hand when it's not feeding time/misting/bedtime lol.
I take him out in the sunshine any days it's warm enough (MI weather is so ridiculous) & he loves to be out inside the house as well.
I have...
Have you had a fecal done? They're really easy and fast, there's even a thread on here that shows how to do yourself if you have the right equipment & microscope...
If you recently had him into the vet, they should just do the fecal without any additional visit charge, they'd just need you to...
Are you keeping it dark at night time? Like no red lights, trying to let the temp go down to mimic the temp drop in the wild?
Does she pace her cage a lot? She could be gravid/need a laying bin....
There are so many things that could be going on....
