I have a really large male (Tamiko) about 550 grams. Hes 6 years old. I got him from a woman who traveled to much and was having issues caring for him. Hes currently in a 40 gal breeder tank with a hot spot @ 110 and UVB. She fed him beardie bites as a staple diet. I feed crickets, supers...
Do you still have your Stenos? I've had a nice group of 12-15 for the past 3 years and I would love to mix up the genes alittle more. Do you ship? I'm in the Chicago area 60010 zip. Thanks...Congrats on the baby!
Thanks for the video. THe sad part is I've done all of that my vermiculite is smooshed(technical word I know) into a ball and no water comes out as I squeeze.....I've seen the pink spots and I've hatched leos,cresteds, and beardies so I know I can do it. I've talked to other Fatty owners and...
I'm sorry if I was unclear....They incubating with my leo eggs not in the same delicups. When I mix my vemiculite I squeeze it out until its done dripping so its pretty dry. Do I need to mix in some dry to make sure its not overly wet?
I've got a pair of wild caughts that I've had for 2 years. Shes laid almost 25 eggs and they had pink spots when I incubated them. The issue is the eggs go bad within the first 3 weeks or so. I have them cooking at 83 degrees with my leos eggs. They're in moist vermiculite. I'm contemplating...
I have a female (Pancake) she almost 490 grams. @ 1.75 yrs old. Tamiko my male 520 grams whose 5-6 years old was with her for almost 2.5 months..LOTS of head bobbing, jumping on top of, general male tomfoolery. Well here we are shes now away from him...No eggs....not real interested in food( I'm...
I use a 5 gal. bucket with a 40-50 watt light on the top to keep them warm. I ues 50/50 sand peat mix. Keep it moist enough to make a ball in your hand
I have a pair of fatties. This is the second year for my girl. Last yr we had 8 eggs and no hatchlings. This year we've had 8 so far and they appeared to be pink and developing for the past 4-6 weeks. Now they are molding over. not heavy like a bad leo egg just alittle fuzz. Any suggestions my...
Depending on the rating on the bulb if its a 5.0 I'd say minimum of 12 hours. 10.0 you could get by with 8-10 hours. In the summer you can take them outside and in a half hour they get the equivalent of 12 hours of 10.0...It helps the electric bill...
I keep my quartets in 29 gals. tanks. Never had a fight or an issue. What I would do though is plan on multiple feeding stations. I would feel comfortable with 8 females in a tanks that large and well planted and branched. I would plan on the mating thing outside of the tank because its too many...
I currently have a pair that I've had for 5 months. They are pretty easy t care for. I have them in a 12x12x12 exoterra. I use a 5.0 UVB flourscent for lighting. I don't heat the tank other than that. they cool to mid 60's at nite. I feed dusted 1/8,1/3" crickets to them. They are quite the chow...
IF the calcium sacs are full they should be white in color. Black might indicate no calcium. If I were you I'd feed calcium dusted cickets with D3 and put a UVB bulb over the tank to help with absorbtion. Otherwise off to the vet. Good luck!
