    Crickets dying too fast

    I sometimes get them in 500 bulk and sometimes locally at 120-150 at a time. The 500 bulk ones are Brown crickets and the 120-150 ones are Banded. I keep them in a 10 gallon aquarium with a full screen top and have plenty of toilet paper rolls or paper towel rolls cut in half. I have two 3"...

    What did I do wrong?

    My 2 year old Male Veiled Chameleon (Mylo) passed away this morning from MBD. I'm just glad he is no longer suffering. It seemed to happen pretty quickly. He didn't seem to like me anywhere near him, so I tried to put his food in and just leave him alone. He acted normal, or at least I...

    Pothos has mealy bugs

    I setup my enclosure about a month before I got my veiled chameleon. Everything seemed to look like it was going great. It's been setup about 3 months now and the other day I noticed on the dead leaves, there was a little white fuzzy stuff. Not a lot, but some down the stem, mostly at the...

    New Baby Veiled & UVB Basking

    First, here are some photos of my baby Male Veiled (Milo): He arrived on Tuesday (11/11) from FLchams and is a Driskel baby. Mike sent me a larger baby, since I only had an adult cage. He is around 5-1/2" nose to end of tail. Does this sound like a 2 month old or is he possibly older...

    Crickets for New Veiled

    I'm about a week away from getting my 2 month old Veiled. I would like to make sure I have food when he arrives. I was planing on ordering 1/4" crickets online. Any idea how quickly will the crickets grow? I can order 250 or 500 1/4" crickets for about the same price. 250 would be the...

    Good places to buy Veiled

    I have decided to change from a panther to a veiled. I've got my cage just about done. Now I need to find a breeder. It appears that most of the sponsors sell Panthers, but don't list Veiled. I thought I read that it was best to start with a 3 month old, but notice that the few Veiled...

    Basking Setup Questions

    I've been researching but have only been only able to find very general info. I've been working on setting up a Panther Chameleon enclosure. I have the 24"x24"x48" DIYCages cage. I'm going with a DIY rainmaker as found on this forum. I purchased and have a Reptisun T5 single fixture with a...

    A little confused about lighting

    I thought I had a good idea of the direction I needed for lighting for a male Panther until I read a long thread on here about T5's. Now I'm confused if my initial plan is wrong. I have a DIYcages 4' tall x 2' wide x 2' deep screen cage. I have a 20" fluorescent fixture, that uses standard...

    My Review of DIYcages.com (2014)

    Most of the times I like to really research something before buying it. Sometimes a little too much, ha ha. I wasn't able to find much recent information other than they are okay, except for a nice older review of them on this site. But they've updated some of their features/design since...

    What size Rocks?

    I've been reading to cover the dirt in the live plant pots with rocks, but I haven't been able to find an approximate size. If I use too large rocks, then feeds can hide in the gaps, but too small and they might eat them. I have a bag of pea gravel (around 1/2"), I assume it's too small. I...

    Rain Dome or Interior Nozzle

    I currently have a Pro Mist setup running on my basilisk enclosure with 2 nozzles. It can handle up to 12 nozzles, so I'm going to add one nozzle for the new screen cage for a male Panther. I'm going to use a 24"x24"x48" screen cage and am wondering which misting method is better for them...

    What type of water to use?

    I've already got a misting system for my basilisk, but what type of water should I use for a panther chameleon? I'm currently using RO/DI water for my basilisk enclosure. But, her water bowl is filled will dechlorinated tap water. The RO/DI is really pure, so it hasn't clogged the nozzles...

    Help selecting a Panther Cage

    Looking to slowly start setting up a Panther Chameleon cage. I've been told the 24"x24"x48" tall should be good. Now, I see they come in nylon screen with plastic frame or aluminum screen with aluminum frame. The nylon cages seem to run a little wider. I really like to aluminum cage, but...

    Veiled or Panther?

    Hi, new to the boards. Not to lizards though, I've had many lizards and currently have a female green basilisk. Just haven't kept a chameleon. While out and about yesterday, we saw a few chameleons at a local pet shop. These were adults that were not for sale, not like we were buying one...
