    Which microscope

    clarification of magnification properties. ??? are you talking about a scope with only 500x? generally, when viewing microscopic samples you start out at a lower x like 40-60x and then as you find concentrations of pathogens or other suspicious sightings, then you move to a higher x. the...

    Which microscope

    my scope picks imo the best overall range is 40-400x (up to 600x max) anything over that will be counter productive. most common reptile pathogens can be identified at 100x or less. there are even some 100x pocket viewers that will work, depending on what you are trying to accomplish. imo...

    Swollen lip???

    mouth crud (not stomatitus) getting stuff caught in the corners of their mouth is a common issue. feeding smaller feeders will usually help. when they eat larger feeders, it makes a paste that gets caught in the corners of their mouth that they are not very good at cleaning. imo it should be...

    Phoenix worms and Jackson's Chams.

    bsfl imo, no single feeder should make up more than 40% of the overall diet regardless of what it is. that being said, bsfl, aka pheonix worms, calci worms, are one of the best single feeders you can give your cham. a good balance of protein to fat, and one of the few feeders that actually...

    Help please, Jackson (xanth) might be sick fell asleep during the day :(

    if by treated wood are you talking about the treatment that you apply?, or actual pressure treated lumber? just to be clear actual pressure treated lumber is infused with copper chromium aresenate (cca), or some other highly toxic derivative, not good. if you find a source for nylon coated...

    Help please, Jackson (xanth) might be sick fell asleep during the day :(

    lol, i"d say unlikely, more likely 1:1, 2:1, 3:1 or maybe even 4 or 5:1. a d/s ratio of 1:10 would mean that at 20" you"d be measuring a circle over 16' in diameter, thats larger than 6 sheets of plywood. if thats the case, you would likely get more accurate measurement by having some voodoo...

    imo, thats an acceptable size for an adolescent veiled. a word on home built cages. they should be designed thoughtfully. what kind of screen and coatings were you planning on using? galvanized hardware cloth is zinc coated, which could concievably lead to zinc poisoning in some circumstances...
