How dark should it be at lights out? My enclosure is up on my loft over looking the lower living room. Its not super bright but not pitch black either. Also his lights come on at 8 am and there are windows across the living room. Ive checked to see if he was sleeping when his lights come on...

yeah i have searched alot and then some more. Just wanted to explain my own setup and the fact that im in a dry place like colorado and get some input. thanks again for the replies

Thank you. I am going to get some pics of him and his enclosure up asap.

I'm new to Chams/Panthers and I have a 3 1/2 month old Ambilobe male (Roa-Endrika) from the Kammers that i got at the end of july. Liddy is wonderful to deal with. Eatting like a champ...12-18 crickets a day. Super active. My enclosure is a 24Lx18Wx30H. Lots of branches and artificial...

Thanks for the replies. Im gonna give them a dark cycle and lower the temps a bit to see if can keep them smaller, longer.

I was also wondering that if the way i have it setup now makes there growth explode. I put in 1/8-1/4 crickets and they quickly become 1/2"+ size crickets within a week. Maybe a little dark cycle may slow there growth a little bit? Maybe cooler temps would slow there growth some? I have a 3...

Thank you for the quick reply. Do yours stay in dark all the time or do they have a light?

Should i have a basking light on the cricket keeper? Should there be a dark cycle or can they be kept in light 24 hr a day? I read that cold temps will drasticaly increase the death rate. My apartment is kept between 69*-72* . Right now i have a basking light on one end of the keeper and...

I agree. I would think about switching to the calcium plus and bug burger from repashy. Takes the thought process out of supplementation and gutloading.

Congrats Liddy is wonderful to deal with. I just recieved my Roa-Endrika male at the end of july. Congrats on your babies

Roa-Endrika I just got my Roa-Endrika male on july 28th. Happy , healthy, eatting and drinking right out of the box. He is awsome. Showing alot of his dads color characteristics for only being hatched in May. Liddy is an absolute pleasure to deal with.

repashy Im using the calcium plus and the bug burger form the Kammers. I like how the burger also hydrates the feeders and the "no brainer" calcium plus takes the guess work out of supplementation...dust everytime you feed. If liddy and Ed say use it, its gotta work. Do yall still put a...

Liddy from Kammerflage Kreations recommends a basking temp of 90-95 for babies. I wouldnt take anyones advice over hers personally.
