    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Anybody in here keep chuckwallas. I need some info on fattening them up any info would be great.
 
most chuckwallas commonly found in stores or shows are going to be either wc or ch. My best advice is soak them and get them hydrated, then take them to a vet for possible deworming. keep em hot and feed em alot after this and they should do fine.
 
Thanks Tim. :)

My favorite chuck breeder is Nick and Austin Dokai (Innovative Ectotherms) and they have a great care sheet for chuckwallas at http://innovativeectotherms.com/chuckwalla_care.html.

When I try to fatten my chucks up after they have laid eggs I use the mixed frozen and thawed vegetable bags and add extra green peas. I still feed their regular greens and put the thawed peas and veggies on top.
