Thanks. they are in vermiculite in a platic box. It was soaked in hot water and drained once to leave it wet The plastic box is placed on a heatmat (giving an inch airgap between the mat and the plastic box) inside a polystyrene box with a lid. The heatmat is set to 74F. There is condensation...

Hello, does anyone know the hatching percentage of incubated eggs? i have 22 eggs and plan to keep them all. But need to think ahead on renting a new flat to fit them all! thanks

Thanks all for the answers!

Timid timmy :)

Sorry forgot to ask the question. This is veiled 7 months old. Are these colours on his face normal? he eats well and is active but also likes to get of his enclosure a lot

Thanks. What if i give calcium +3D every day? Is it bad?

Yes that one. Ok thank you, next time i will check

hi all, i have bought Exo Terra Reptile Multivitamins on amazon. is this suitable for veiled chams? There is a panther in the label in front but i don’t want to give the wrong vitamins! thanks

where should i incubate them in the house? in the bedroom in a draw? should i moisturise sometimes the substrate?

she didn't lay them in the lay bin but in the soil instead. it is bioactive and moist as it rains (artificial) for 5 minutes during the day. i could try a pet shop tomorrow for perlite, there are a few around

Its a cell culture incubator. Whar should i do in your experience until when the vermiculate arrives? turn down the moisture in the terrarium?

sound exciting. will look at beehives, and black soldier flies, they seem to be perfect as they climb up a ramp when they are ready to be eaten, so could redirect the ramp into the herp room/s. also the flies seem to be able to tolerate high humidity, unlike locusts... which would be a great +

yes sadly i tried but they didn't have any... i have some play sand i can place them in..? would that work or should i leave them in the soil (moist) until next week? for the incubation, I am considering leaving them in my flat at 21 C. or in the terrarium maybe as there is regular water...

that's interesting. you mean bee hive for black soldier flies? not actual bees right? when you say have a window open, you don't mean to the outside world? i am worried with contamination from outside in the flies.. eg: there are rice paddies around and there is fertiliser, pesticides spread...

yes it was horrible, it was a sunday vet who said she needed calcium to have energy and release the eggs. i took her home and the next day she layed lots of eggs so i was happy. the following day she was lethargic and i took her to another vet out of town as all the ones in town had no room to...

Hum thanks for the tips, i will look at all of this, starting with the dusting schedules. thanks a lot

I can check more in the middle of the night but in the late evening it is 80-90% before i go to bed. There is mourned 20 cm of soil and it is all moist so probably releases humidity a lot. 1.15 m wide, 59 cm deep and 1.5 m high. yes fully bioactive with springtails and earth worms in the soil...

yes thank you for the message. i agree, it is very exiting and needs a lot of planning if at all possible. I also understand that the most difficult part is the feeding/dusting. Other than that it is just a massive enclosure setup and can be done. What kind of flying insects could i feed them...

so this is the room. we want to restore it this summer and insulate it. The dimensions are 7meter long, 3.75 meters wide and 3.1 meters high. I was thinking on having two corridors of enclosures divided by a 1.25meter corridor down the middle. This would create two corridors of 7mx1.25mx3m. I...
