WOW! What a great new look! I hadn't been on in a while and I thought I was at the wrong place LOL Seriously guys great work and thanks for all you do to keep such a great community going and active.

Thanks Sapphira :) Yeah we are totally addicted now! :D Having almost as much fun with his food too lol who knew playing with bugs could be so much fun haha Here he is enjoying a nice bask in the rays after a big breakfast of crickets, hornworms and butter worms. what a piggy :roll eyes:

Oh Yeah!! Can't forget about the Ledges!:D:D Those are Awesome!:cool:

Definitely want to change the timing on the basking bulb as well. You will want that and the uvb bulb to come on in the morning at a time around 6 or 6:30 am and stay on for 12 hours until 6 or 6:30. Having the light come on at midnight might be waking him/her up (i hate it when my wife gets up...

something you might want to try until you can replace the bamboo is to just take some corse sandpaper to them and rough them up a bit. I have the same issue and will be doing this this weekend to help until I can find some suitable sticks.

JCarlsen - You can't go wrong with a Dragonstrand setup! I recently received my 2x2x4 and a drainage tray and absolutely love it. I too was a bit shocked by the shipping costs as I think we all get used to/spoiled by the Amazon's of the world and their Prime memberships offering free shipping on...

Thanks Pascal! Yeah these cool little creatures are just amazing :D I agree, this forum has an amazing amount of great info and a ton of super cool people willing to help in any way they can. I have learned a ton here and continue to find myself hitting the search button quite often for...

Ok... I just looked. Can we say hoity toity? Lol

Haha Thanks Junglefries now I gota go renew my "Man-Card" and maybe some sort of fine and/or penalty might be in order LOL I am not even sure what zoolilly.com is but now I gota go look :confused: you just never know where your next chameleon accoutrements will come from :D

Greetings Everyone!! Just thought I would share how things are coming along for Leon's enclosure, actually just the stand in this post :D. First I just want to throw out some mad props to all the great members here sharing their many, many combined years of wisdom. It is hard to imagine what...

not sure about the mantids, but i would love to throw out some props to http://gordosfeederbugz.com I have ordered from there a couple times and they have very nice bugs. they come very well packaged and very much alive. i had one little issue with some silk worms (had a rough trip though the...

Got the real camera out today. This was my favorite pic. Today was Leon's first trip to the great outdoors for some natural sun :) I think he started to get a little unsure of this experience (or it could have be me with my big ole camera in is face, lol), and we quickly went back inside soon...

Will do Happy... I picked up a few things today and most items were delivered yesterday (gota love Amazon Prime!!, I think I am addicted :eek:). Pretty excited to get started on this but my wife's birth is tomorrow and I have a couple other projects to wrap up before I can start this one:D.. I...

Okay... I went and did it! :D Got everything ordered tonight to start this. Looking forward to this build. I've been wanting to do some sort of build thread for a while so I am going to try and find the time to do so with this. I hope this turns out! It looks like it will be a fun build! Wish...

WOW! Happy, this has got to be my next project!! I love this kind of stuff and have been eyeing either the Raspberry PI or Arduino to start playing around with. I will definitely be following this thread and hope more cham/eletronic enthusiasts jump on to discuss. It's off to eBay and Amazon...

THANKS CAROL!! We had to leave for a few hours and I was worried crazy. Just got home to find him looking back to normal :) basking in the sun! Will definitely still be keeping an eye on him but I think we can probably chalk this up to "new cham daddy over reacting" lol

Thanks Patsy Yeah I was curious about the huge swings in humidity as well. Seems impossible to keep it steady even though it is not all screen. I may have found a vet nearby and if things keep getting worse there is definitely a road trip in store for little Leon.

ok... now i am getting scared! he is just laying on his stick kind of sideways and turning a bit dark. he tried to turn around and lost his balance and fell off. He was able to catch himself and climb back up but is very unsteady. I am looking for a herp vet in the Tacoma WA area if anyone...

So, things have been going great. Then something seems "off" this morning. Leon seems a bit weak (walking around very slowly and shaky) and looks possibly a bit dehydrated (haven't actually seen him drinking off the leaves in a while). He gets misted twice - three times a day, humidity ranges...
