Pic1 is the moment I introduced the female. The last pic is roughly 10 mins later. He's not much of a talker.
I have totally fallen in love with the cap est locality. I switched up my entire collection to this one locality.
Add just enough water so you can suck it the syringe.
When I was doing it sometimes a little bit would come all the way up to his mouth. Just leave him alone and hopefully he will swallow it.
Make sure the tube is behind his wind pipe before you start pushing in the food.
Don't just put the...
Nice!!! I wish you lots of luck with your breeding efforts. I know there's only a very small handful even in the US. Hope one day your able to help with adding to the numbers.
For everyone else reading honey is just over 80% sugar. At least that's what I just read from a google search. Like I said I've never tried it but that sounds like a good sugar buzz too. If I ever have to force again I think I'll try it myself.
I know the corn syrup might sound crazy. I sure did when it was told to me. But that single ingredient made all the difference. Before I was just using the reptoboost and bugs when I started adding the karo it was like I was putting a little boost of energy in him.
Now I see others are posting...
I'll break it down here so I case anyone else wants to here. First reptoboost. Comes with a feeding syringe. Mix up with water about a half of spoon of just reptoboost. Then you will need to add bugs. So pick some bugs and start mooshing them into total moosh. I used crickets. It was a pain...
Be very very careful you don't force food into her wind pipe. It's right there at the back of mouth. Put the syringe in past it. If you mess up and put it in her wind pipe it's instant death. So just be careful.
I got this one wc panther in particular early this year. Wouldn't eat anything from the moment I received him. I used repto-boost and mooshed up bugs and put it into a syringe. He started to come around very very slowly. Then I got a tip from an olschool panther breeder and I turned him around...
Good advice already given so far so all I have to add is put a laying bin in her cage as a permanent fixture. You could also put a live plant in the box too to help spruce up the place. Egg laying chameleons are already prepared to dig through roots. But if you think she's going to lay you might...
