    My crickets are dying.. Help

    A bigger cage helps a lot as well as everything else that has been said. Although too much humidity can kill them off too. If u have younger ones die while shedding then its too low otherwise its fine. They may be to old to live as long as you would like. Try ordering half inch. You will have to...

    Rhinocerous Iguana!

    I think as long as the hight of the cage is the 4' you would probably be alright. They need more floor space than green iguanas.

    Are these plants safe?

    Sorry, not trolling. I had just been to the plant store. See I am getting ideas about what the limits of my system are. I have kept houseplants for over a decade and living in Colorado a lot of the tropical stuff is hard for me to grow. Now with the Cham cage I have a great micro environment for...

    Any crafty people?

    I have used chain to wrap around lights in the way you were talking about using string. The other thing if u can take it apart the top could be drilled and either a hook or cable attached to hang.

    flex seal

    I have wanted to use it for different animal cages myself. My issue is that it says right on the can not tested for potable water use. Until its safe to use on drinking water I would not feel safe using it for my pets. Just my .02 no other research involved. :)

    t5 lighting overkill?

    I have been thinking about what lights to get for my chameleon cage. It is 24x24x48. I could go out and spend between 40 and 80 bucks on a new 2 ft t5 fixture with either 2 or 4 bulbs. We will be moving soon so any money saved is good. In my basement I have two 4 ft HO t5 set-ups that...

    Feeding cup and supplement questions!

    I just bought some of the exo terra calcium from the pet shop. I have used repcal for years. Does any one know if there is much of a difference? The owner of the shop is trying to carry more exo terra products over other brands. I have never really had any issues with their products and have...

    New DIY 24x24x48 cage for my Veiled Chameleon

    I have a Veiled Chameleon that I got about two weeks ago from Petco. It is my first Chameleon but I have been keeping and breeding reptiles for over a decade. The lady that got him for me said they had had him for about 3 months and he was around 2 months when they got him in. So with it being...

    Read the Plant sticky and still have questions!

    So I made this list of plants I liked the look of from a list posted in the plant sticky above. After spending like 20 min looking each of them up to see what they look like and making a list of the ones I like I saw a post on the next page saying that some of those on the list where bad and...

    Mistking starter kit? or Ultimate value kit?

    So quick question to add here. If you go with the larger setup with multiple heads can you only use the one and just add more later when you need to or do you have to use all three now and still have an option for more later? Just a tad confused there and I am in the same boat. I only have...

    live cannabis

    That's a good idea too. They are one of my favorite trees. I used to have bonsai Japanese maple when I lived in my apartment. I had it on the porch to over winter it and some actually stole it. It was just a stick in a small pot at that point. The biggest problem I see with that is I...

    live cannabis

    U guys are right. I should have used search function more lol. I am not used to animal forums that have so many people and so much info. I also see the eye issue. I was trimming buds for a buddy one time and rubbed my eye when it was covered in resin and it does burn. Can't imagine how bad it...

    live cannabis

    So I have been thinking of different plants for my veileds cage and I think cannabis is it! It grows strong and quickly. It can be trained to grow as a bush with lots of strong interconnecting branches plus will do well in the high light and temps. The first two glaring issues would be...
