    Christmas gecko art!

    One of my friends didn't know what to get my boyfriend, so I did some VERY loose sketches of the babies and she did the rest and look at how great it is!

    Dishes?

    What kind of dishes do you use for your arboreal lizards? Ones that hang or just sit on the ground? I'm asking because my Exo Terra Canopy Combo Dish fell down and now it won't stick back up and it's making me really apprehensive about putting it back up - I wouldn't want my garg to hurt himself :/

    Digging madness

    Oh my god, Donut is so noisy! Ever since we switched to tile, he's started digging so much! As shown in this photo, the left (cold) corner is still covered with beech chips as there's nowhere around that cuts tiles. It's not like he dislikes the tile, he spends the entire evening flopped down...

    Not gaining weight

    Ok I got some photos. Unfortunately I didn't have a great before-photo :/ Approx 1,5 months ago Now It's a bit hard to tell in the photos, but both her belly and her tail are looking a lot plumper!

    Dealing with silkworms

    I'm wondering how everyone else is "handling" their silkworms? We have real problems with the tubs getting too humid and the worms then dying. Last week I had two tubs of 25 silkworms, now I have 2 tubs probably containing 10...

    Will this be good for a gargoyle?

    Not gaining weight

    Okay guys, I weighed her today and... She's only gained one gram again (25 grams in total). However we googled a bit to see what other people's 5-month olds weighed and she's not far off. Her poos are perfectly normal, look just like Donut's poos. We also looked at her closely and her tail is as...

    Not gaining weight

    Here are both of them, didn't wanna take Eclair out because she was just so comfy right there in her food dish :D Donut was very grumpy today and didn't wanna stretch out for a good photo, so he looks a bit chunkier than he is since he's all curled up (he's actually quite streamlined). He's...

    can't post pics (already read directions)

    Photos can not be too large (I think the limit is 500kb?) so if they are, you need to use a photo editor software or online photo editor to reduce the file size :3

    Hello!

    Here's a little comparison of Donut from when we got him and how he looks now :3 He's about to go into shed so he's a bit grey but he's grown so much!

    Not gaining weight

    It's been 2-3 weeks since the last time Eclair gained any weight :/ She did gain a lot the first few weeks here but now she seems to have stagnated. She doesn't appear to understand that she can eat out of her dish (and I've tried several different ones) so the only thing she'll eat most of the...

    Mealworm poo

    I like to keep my feeders clean and healthy so I clean their tubs and add new food, pick out dead ones and such once a week. But I've noticed that whenever I've been sifting mealworms, I get a really bad headache. Does anyone know if there's anything in mealworm poo that's not good for humans?

    Mealworm beetles

    Have you guys tried feeding your leos newly hatched mealworm beetles? I tried giving one to picky Eclair and she ate 7 in less than a minute, absolutely loved them! Donut liked them a lot too :> I don't breed my beetles because I don't really have space for that right now but they are...

    Dud eggs

    I think Donut might be a lady :o It looks as though he perhaps has some unfertilised egg-action in his belly. We're going away for a few days so my boyfriend's parents will be feeding and looking after them so there might just be some eggs laying around when we come back. I set up a laybox for...

    Fruit beetle grubs

    Since getting waxworms is a waste (they turn into moths before we can finish even half the tub) and hornworms aren't available here, I've got a tub of fruit beetle grubs! Eclair is obviously too small to have any yet but I'm going to see if Donut wants any later, I'll post the results :3 I've...

    Mack snow/blizzard

    I'm curious - how do you tell the difference between a patternless mack snow and a blizzard? I've got a little blizzard myself and I keep seeing ones that have the exact same yellow/white branded as mack snows. Is it something with the eyes?

    Feeding a skittish leo

    We're having some trouble feeding Eclair because she's pretty much terrified of us. She refuses to come out of her hide unless we're in bed. I sometimes see her in the mornings but she runs back to her hide if she hears me. So far, all we've done is put a few small locusts in at night and hope...

    Thermostat/temperature

    So I have a kind of technical question, I don't know if anyone will be able to answer it directly, but mostly I'm just wondering if anyone else experiences is and what to do about it. The thermostats on my heat mats are set to 32 C and the temperature probe is on top of the substrate, making...

    Cleaning

    Out of curiosity, how often do you do a full clean of your tank? I've seen recommendations for everything from once a week to once a month and we do it once a week. That's carpet cleaning, disinfecting furnishing and wiping down walls. Personally I think reptile carpets in particular definitely...
