Introduction to Bio-Activity:
As of recent times, a lot of folks have been asking questions, and for guides on Bio-active Enclosures. How to set them up, how to drain them, how they work, why they work. I figured it was good and Time, that someone sat down and made a Guide! I have been meaning...

My first prototype
I was planning on using Exo-terra Nano glass cages for my baby cages but the supply chain issues we are all too familiar with made me get creative. Forum member, MeruJack, who I all but stalked on here when I was getting started used Nanos for her baby jacks and she had a...
Some inspirational thoughts for free ranging
First, our living room is a large, bright (views on both sides) and pet free living room without small children walking around.
Second, the free-range area is at exact the same spot as where a Reptibreeze XL (24´x24´x48´) stood.
Many assume...
I free range my chameleons so I really have to pay close attention to when it’s time to lay eggs. I think one of the most important things is to have a gram scale and weigh her once a week. If she's gaining and you are still feeding the same amount of food then I figure she must have eggs. You...
Luie has a brown spot on his lip. It will dry up, fall off and then come back again. It has been doing this over and over for about 2 months. I took him to the vet and of course the day of our apt. it had just fell off and the vet could not see anything. The vet looked all inside of his...

Veiled and Panther Care sheet
By: Justin Carl
HOUSING- Adult- With Veiled and Panther chameleons their seems to be a standard of 24(w) x24(d) x48(h). One chameleon per cage! These numbers can be tweaked slightly, such as width and depth. A chameleon cage can never be too high. I would try...
Well, some bad news with the cryptic, my heater in my house stopped working one night and it got pretty chilly in there. I woke up to a dead mantis. I was however lucky enough to get a few orchid mantis which are amazing so I am changing the photos to them. The first group were taken before...
Since this is our first blog post we will update more than anything.
We got our first clutch of eggs back in early September of '07. They were from our Panther hybrid project Skittles (50% nosy be, 50% ambilobe) and Mango (100% Sambava) all looks well with those eggs.

I am starting a blog that will document the growth a cryptic mantis(Sibylla Pretiosa) that I recently aquired. I will update with photographs as it grows. It is currently a nymph and smaller than a penny. I am feeding it fruitflies and pinhead crickets.
This is my first blog on this site. I first used this site just for asking questions without searching if anybody posted a question first. Then after a few months, I began searching the site first and then asking questions if it wasn't on there. And today, I've decided to take the time and make...
I've been of work for about a week and a half for an injury. The new drugs they prescribed are working great. I have been trying to be a bit more active the last few days too, in preparation for returning to work on Wednesday.
Yesterday was boring, I was very tired from the medication and...
I picked up some more bags of Seachem Fluorite for the new aquarium. Getting expensive though- and I'm thinking of returning the 5 bags of gravel I have for an all fluorite substrate... I do however need to pickup a 30-40 foot heat cable to submerse beneath the gravel. This allows the roots to...
Today was Ribfest. The Burlington Ribfest always falls on Labor day weekend. I believe it is said to be the biggest Ribfest in all of Canada, Though I haven't been to any anywhere else- so I cannot confirm the statements validity.
During a discussion on how anticipating this event is, and...
