The vet should have sutured any remaining tissue over the bone. Or if there wasn't any to cover the hyoid bone, maybe the bone should have been removed and the hole sutured closed. I don't have any knowledge dealing with the removal of hyoid bones. Never had it done.
Offer good through the weekend only.
I have some adult crickets because I ordered too many. If anyone in the L.A. area wants some, please email me at [email protected].
I have one box of 1000 that is unopened but I also have smaller numbers that are being gutloaded and hydrated...
That had to make your day. :) What a great discovery.
One time a very young male Jackson's crawled out of a whole torn in a cage that I hadn't noticed before. This was years ago. It was in the middle of summer so I would always water the shrubs just in case he was in them somewhere...
I am working with a panther that I picked up yesterday. But this is not a typical rescue. I promised the owner that I would monitor the chameleon for a few days to see if there was something I could do.
He told me the chameleon was fine the day before he had problems.
Right now his eyes...
You have my number and if you truly want my help, call me. I'm going to pick up a chameleon in a few minutes but I'll have my phone with me.
Alternatively, if you have someone near you who can take the chameleon in, then give it to them. Don't leave it to suffer while you go away for five...
Then take him to someone who keeps chameleons and give them the chameleon. Do you have someone locally who can take him?
I know you're just a kid but you need to understand that when you have a sick animal, you don't just leave it to suffer while you go away for the weekend. Ship him to...
I think the stigma surrounds the fact that many people don't properly maintain the glass enclosure and neglect the animal inside. You are one of the exceptional keepers who know how to maintain a glass enclosure, obviously. But I do understand your need to rant.
Maybe LLL plans to attend both shows. They can probably pull it off being a big vender like they are.
Cody came by the ChamEO booth at Pomona and asked if we can attend her show as well. I just don't have the ability to do many shows and I would prefer to go where all the chameleon...
The way you are describing what he is doing sounds like he is dying. Without photos of the chameleon it is really difficult to help you set him up comfortably. But I would lay him right side up and set him on a towel or something he can grab hold of.
If he's dying, not much else can be done...
Tom's Roaches
Did anyone pick up roaches from Tom at Tyler Stewart's booth? I bought B. lateralis. They are FAST! Can't climb smooth walls and they are no bigger than an adult cricket when fully grown.
I offered some to the juvenile cristatus earlier today and they liked them. The adult...
I couldn't help myself! I bought a pair of Lygodactylus williamsi because someone came to our booth to purchase fruit flies after buying a pair for himself. I'm partial to day geckos but haven't had any for years. Soooo cute!!! I bought my pair from Switzer Reptiles and my enclosure is the...
Hi Clay,
If you're the guy I met this weekend at the ChamEO and SBCK booth, hello again! I'll be adding the Starter Kits back on the ChamEO website tomorrow. Spending the rest of this evening unpacking from the show. If I can answer any more questions, feel free to call or email. Also...
Dave Weldon (SBCK) and I will be near the back. When you walk in, we're in the same aisle as LLL Reptile but straight back. I'm bringing Mist King Starter Kits and a couple of extra nozzles.
See you tomorrow. :)
The only one I can confidently recommend is LLL Reptiles only because their plants come from a pesticide free greenhouse. I'm sure there are others but you'll have to put a little work into cleaning them and ridding them of any pesticides.
