I've just recently started feeding Kookie Super worms. I know that Mealworms aren't that good because they cause impaction. I bought the Supers at Reptile Depot and they call them "Super Mealworms." Are Supers just glorified Mealworms? Am I feeding him the wrong thing? He does love them...

Is it necessary to dust Superworms with calcium? I just HATE touching them!! :puke:

For the last 2 months, Kookie hasn't been eating properly. He eats 8-10 medium crickets for breakfast, never touches his salad, and sometimes he will eat about 10 PWs for dinner. Sometimes the crickets for breakfast is all he eats all day. He will never eat or drink anything that I drop on...

Kookie was diagnosed with coccidia and the vet prescribed Albon treatment for 8 weeks. I thought that was too long to be on Albon so I treated him for 4 weeks, ending on May 1. I was also giving him Benebac but he didn't get it down every day because he wouldn't eat what I was offering it to...

Kookie is like 5 1/2 mo. old now and the older he gets the wilder he's getting. He fights like mad to get down when he's in my hands. He's still on medication for coccidia, which is probably not helping matters since I'm trying to force a syringe into his mouth. I take him out of his cage a...

Kookie had a LIVE phoenix worm in his poo today! It was absolutely gross! I'll probably have nightmares about it. You'd think, if nothing else, the stomach acids would kill it!

Kookie's hind legs, tail, and maybe head have looked strange for well over a week now. They look like they're going to shed but nothing is happening. He gets a bath every day and brushed with his toothbrush. Does it look like he's supposed to shed? I don't know what else to do.

When feeding butternut squash, do you cook it or just shred it raw or what? If you cook it, could you please tell me how? I know, a dingbat question but I really don't cook any more. Nancy

I know that a lot of people swear by the tile because of the ease of cleaning. To me, it just seems so "cold." I feel like I might as well just be putting him on the glass floor. I recently bought a 40 gal breeder from one of our members and I love it. It has the tile permanently attached...

Kookie will soon be moving from his 20 gal. long to the 40 gal. breeder. I'm currently using the ReptiSun 10 18" tube. Would it be best if I get an MVB for the new larger tank? And if so, what wattage?

Does anyone know if it's okay to use Clorox Anywhere sanitizing spray to sanitize their vivs? It says it's safe for babies and pets.

A lot of people recommend using tile on the bottom of the tank, but doesn't that get too cold at night?

Kookie's growing like a weed now. I do have a question about his behavior though. He's not afraid when I take him out of his cage but once he's out he's just wild. He seems to just want to run and jump. There's no possible way I could ever set him down. I can barely hold onto him...

I just couldn't wait another day. I just got him/her and it's the tiniest thing I've ever seen. Just 2 months old and barely 5" long. My finger is bigger around than it is. I'm scared to death of him/her. What if I do something wrong? I bought baby crickets and I'm going to the store now...

Cinnamon is 4 1/2 yrs old and I've had him since he was a baby. About a month ago he stopped eating and became very lethargic. I've taken him to two different vets. The first one had no idea what was wrong and sent him home with some antibiotics. A few days later I took him to another vet...
