    powersun bulbs

    my dave (yemen) loved his. they are great if you use a UVB meter (they can be a bit high for some) although 2 of mine blew in about 5 weeks or so, so i went back to tubes

    First Strike!

    if he's on cricket strike i wouldn't go near wax worms, they are a once in a while treat and if you give him one of those you may find thats all he wants and make it worse. my veiled Dave stop eating crickets so i swapped them out for locusts he likes them and chows down on them, they also go...

    New cage

    currently i have no drainage but you can get "flexitrays" which collect the water at the bottom and bodge a system from that. TBH i find that i mist every leave on every plant and due to the flexy being fully mesh it all evaporates within a few hours suprisingly no real mess. But my dave seems...

    you don't dude the white stuff is good pee and the yellow/orange stuff is dehydrated pee :) he wont cock his leg up at a branch, they dont pee and poop as such they "vent" and clear out both at the same time from the same place.

    Exo rain forests

    yes the substrate in mine was removed after a few weeks it took more upkeep than the rest of the viv!! gnats were a problem with it and lots of little mold patches. i must admit though my yemen liked this viv but sadly its just too small when they grow up, good for juvies though

    Exo rain forests

    i have used them for around 7 months now without issue, according to they're (exoterra) website they don't produce UVB light with a wavelength below 300 (doesn't occur in nature) and these wavelengths i believe are the cause of the CFL issues. i bought my first cham kit from exoterra from an LRS...

    Silkworms in the U.K

    im not too sure what size "micro" is but im allowing a month for them to grow around 2" i may be wrong though i have read 1-1 1/2 weeks from hatchling to an inch and the same again for another 1" total of 2" but in my experience things always take longer than i think lol Question: could i...

    Which insect is the easiest to breed?

    im afraid wax worms shouldn't be more than 3 a week they are like chocolate to them (very fatty and low nutritional value) and i found too many wax worms makes my yemen a food snob and wont touch anything else. i roll them in calcium powder and give him one every 2-3 days to try getting mine to...
