Good afternoon Norcal55. I haven't had any chameleons in a few years. My last was a Nosy Mistio Ambilobe cross. He was the most brilliant cham I had ever owned. He would turn pastel of every shade almost. I was curious if you were going to be selling some of your clutch. If so what would...

I would like to find some folks who are breeding Montiums. Help please?

I recently purchased a lingustrum shrub for a nursery that is going out of business. Fox nursery on staples street in Corpus Christi Tx if any one is interested. The plant selection is limited now but the pot sales are crazy cheap. Anyway I have read that this tree is non toxic but was just...

I do not have a solar meter so I will consult Todd before I make a final choice. I feel like my cham gets sufficient uv from me taking him outside plus what he gets inside. It is during the winter months that I would be most concerned about. Maybe I will switch to the higher uv bulb during...

Thanks for the input. I will consider doing that. I do take him outside for 45 minutes to 2 hours twice a week during the warmer months. He gets some good Texas sun and a long shower each time. I want to replant his cage soon, but I am worried now that it is warming up the pavement ants are...

I know my cham will. I want to get his enclosure back to the way I want it. I am just waiting for some extra income to get new lights, soil, and plants.

Thank you for your response. It does express that it supports 4 54 watt HO bulbs.

I found a t5 4 bulb fixture for $90 dollars by oddesea on aqua traders. I was curious if the t5 arcadia bulbs would function in this fixture properly. I am guessing it would not matter. I read some posts from reef tank keepers and they were using 10,000k and 18,000k bulbs which is much more...

I have an adult male mitsio cross in a large enclosure. It is roughly 8x8x4. I used to have my plants planted in the cage, but I made the mistake of over watering. Now I have the plants potted, but would like to go back to a planted enclosure now that I have learned my lessons. I have always...

reply Wow that is amazing that your green house holds such a good temp. I know that if you have screen sides that are covered it will be harder to keep the temp than if you had solid sides. Those were just the first things that come to my mind. We really do have a lot of strong northern...

ideas I think it is very cool what you are trying to do. I have some concerns about controlling the temperature during the winter. I live in rockport tx and it is cold here for more than four to six weeks. I am pretty sure you would have to heat your cage quite a bit in the winter even if...

strikes Yep don't worry. I have the same trouble. I just stopped worrying about as much. I agree hydration is the most important thing. My panther loves super worms and crickets when he is hungry. When he is not super hungry he responds better to super worms. He likes to eat more and...

eating Don't worry to much. They really can go awhile with out eating or eating feeders in numbers. I know this because my panther does not eat like crazy. I wish he would but he constantly goes up and down in the amount of feeders he will eat. I think the most important thing to do is...

pinks I like your post dlegare. It is the most scientific general post. Chameleons don't feed on rodents very often and I don't eat prime rib very often. Is it going to kill me? No, but I will get some nutrients from it as well as my tastes buds getting some really good stimulation...

melles I am pretty sure this cham is captive born in houston.
