There was a small picture of the nataliae in Reptiles magazine. I've tried to search the coronata but keep getting pictures of birds.



I've upped the temps a bit in my cages and put in 25 to 40 watt basking bulbs (depending on cage size). The armatas LOVE it. Their color is every bit as nice in the daytime as a night. Before the day color was dark. One capra is basking regularly. A female wild caught that I think is the age of my 05 babies. Size comparison is why I think that. The 05 babies move into and out of the basking area. It's only been a few days so there hasn't been to much to notice yet. They always were good eaters. Maybe this will get them to be a bit more active.

Right now I'm a bit concerned about constipation. I don't see to much poo. I've been soaking them. They don't look dehydrated and are still eating like pigs. I'm going to move everything on the floor of the cage to see if they are going behind something. Also there a 2 or 3 roaches loose (can't catch the fast critters) and I'm thinking they might be eating it. Ack! Gonna put a piece of carrot in there like I do the other cages.

Other than a bit of mineral oil and soaking (with a slight tummy stroke) is there any other home remedy that someone has had success with? They will go to the vet if necessary.
