finally my jax had its babies sadly 4 of them are not doing that great but the other 21 all are eating and running around their cages. i was just wonderin how old do they have to be before they can eat something a little bigger than pinheads and ff.

WOW WOW WOW. That is awesome, they are soooooo cute huh. you are one lucky guy. Kingsnake should put virtual cigars on here in the tools thing so we can pass out cigars (or the politicaly correct non carcinogenic version at least) How old is the mother? do you know if she is a xantholophus or jacksonii? Did she stop eating before she had them? One of mine did and one did not. Is this her first batch?

yes she is Xantholophus i got her when she was pregnant and she was full grown so judging by how many babies she had she is probally kinda old and for shure not a first time mother. she never really went off eating but she didnt eat as much as the male did.

yeah, the first female who had four babies, had bigger babies, but she is tiny and prob young. She didn't eat for three weeks or so, not a thing until I force fed her late one night. She is not as vigorous as the other new mom, and I think she may be sick, or having a hard time regaining her strenth since she is so small, she has such a cool personality, I hope she doesn't die.. Did your chams come from the Hawaii colonies? Mine did and there were two red ones, Just wondering. I was wondering if wild caught had a season in which they give birth most of the time.

yes i got her myself for 10 dollars from hawaii and brough her and a male back they are doing great.

WOW, that would be cool. Did they have a lot of them to choose from, like a farm? or was itin a pet store or something. I think it would be wild to look for them in the forests of hawaii....ahhhh.
