just got back from the vet. He says it’s not edema and that he looks and acts healthy. Based on what he saw, he says it’s most likely air escaping through the larynx under the skin. Since it appeared around the same time as him hitting my finger in stead of the dubia roach, it is most likely...

These are the three supplements I have. I had gotten the reptivite for my beardie that I just got 2 months ago as a rescue and it was showing early signs of MBD.

@MissSkittles, wow! Thanks for the info! I’ll work on correcting all that you advised! The front black thing is the mist king rain system. The green plastic is just a piece of abs plastic I screwed into the frame to add support for the rain system. The uvb is behind that at an angle with only...

Your Chameleon - Male Panther Chameleon, 14 months old. I've had him for 10 months. Handling - Never, working to get him comfortable. He will put his legs on my hand if approached slowly. Feeding - Primary: dubia roaches- 5-8 medium/large 3x per week, gut loaded with a variety of fresh veggies...

He’s just about doubled in size if not more since I got him in June!

I believe @ChameleonGuy686 is from that area. He shipped a baby out to me here on the east coast!

Welcome, and good job doing the research first! Dubia.com has all of those shipped to you and they have decent pricing. Beats anything I can find locally and shipping cost is about the same as anything close enough for me to drive to with gas and time. Dubias make a good staple, Hornworms, if...

Haha, I’ll see if I can get it cleaned up and post updated pictures in the next few weeks between my two summer classes that I’m taking. Might give you a better idea. If you do end up getting one and need any help, let me know!

Mine kind of goes with my profession. I use all of my animals in my classroom to teach science concepts with!

I have it plumbed directly into the sink waterline using a brass T fitting. But with no DIY knowledge, the sink fitting is probably the easiest. So the it goes through a series of filters. For RO it goes through a 5 micron felt filter, a carbon filter, then the 2 RO membranes then to the white...

Plus if you ever have a chance to start a reef tank, you just need to get a DI unit to add on to the RO 🙂 Main tank and temporary quarantine tank for incoming corals. I’m starting up a reefing club for the middle school so I will have another shallower tank for coral grow-out.

Wow, the cost of the filters must have added up on that! They make a faucet adapter for the 1/4 in line needed for the RO unit. The RO membrane needs to be replace every couple years and the pre fillers every 3-6 months depending on how much you use it. Definitely save money pretty quickly.

Here is my set up and one of my misting buckets. In the pick I’m running rodi for the reef tank. But there is a second output just after the RO filter part that I use for the the reptiles. Please excuse any mess you might see, my classroom is in summer chaos mode. Building shelves in my closet...

You won’t be disappointed, mine made it across the US and I’m starting to see more of his colors!
