    Bringing Out Color

    By far one of the most comprehensive explanations! Interesting how you bring knowledge from fish-frogs-reptiles, it’s almost like an evolution chain if you think about it! Imma try that super pig ASAP! I also got some amazing advise from other users here about organic edible flowers (rose...

    Deciphering Color and how to enhance it.

    Agreed! I think diet also promotes more healthy appearance like crustaceans do to flamingoes featheres. My sister used to work in a resort hotel that kept flamingoes as part of the local ornamentation and the vets gave them carotenoids supplementation to put color on as they proved that...

    Deciphering Color and how to enhance it.

    Quite a celebrity lol! But he looks a loooot like this darkish green that I don’t dislike, but definitely is not that blue that drives me crazy! Im on to believe lighting and angles have a lot to do just like with feathers and reflections… also maybe it’s an effect similar to Abronia Gramminea...

    Deciphering Color and how to enhance it.

    Like I said, that’s something I’ve done only a couple sporadic times and no, it wasn’t boiling hot or even hot at all and yes, my water is filtered, no danger. I didn't mean to get into an in depth conversation about showers as I just tried to make a point with colors, that’s all… Here some...

    Deciphering Color and how to enhance it.

    Id have to disagree slightly. It depends entirely on how it’s done and I haven’t seen or harmed my animals in any way. Also and in regards to color, I understand that colorful reptiles such as chameleons DO have a normally healthy bright colorful skin, it’s almost saying that a dark, grayish is...

    Deciphering Color and how to enhance it.

    Totally agree! It can really get to our heads and that can lead to thinking our set up isn’t correct when in fact it is. I learned to accept this and to my benefit, my chams always show brighter when I interact with them which is a joy to watch really. I just let them be as long as they have all...

    Deciphering Color and how to enhance it.

    I know this is really old but I thought on adding to this as I am also concerned how chameleons look AWESOME sometimes and others just dull and dark… I guess that’s why they’re chameleons after all. I’ve been fine tuning my cage to experiment and see if there is “something” namely, humidity...

    Help!! Cricket egg bin disturbed!

    I can see and understand your point perfectly. I believe in the “power of the cricket” because of their abilities to deliver nutrients through gut loading although they themselves are not so much. I’ve been frustrated about crickets for the same reasons and I can’t figure how to establish a...

    Help!! Cricket egg bin disturbed!

    Awesome, so the dirt being dropped and messed around -and picked up back into the container will not harm the eggs, I’ll just keep waiting. Right now the conditions are very constant at 82.6 F and humidity @ 82% I could increase it much, I’ll just clean up some mold I’ve seen growing and cover...

I’ve started my first cricket colony and these guys layed HUNDREDS of eggs! however, an accident happened and the egg laying container flipped inside the incubator and all the soil + eggs got messed up.

    Cleaning/disinfecting “dirt” background walls?

    Thank you for such an in depth answer! Rally appreciate it! Ok… I know what I’m going to do now, back to 24x48. This product you’ve mentioned also seems to be my solution. I have a product here I have not used yet, maybe you could identify if it’s convenient to use as its clinical, animal and...

    Cleaning/disinfecting “dirt” background walls?

    Also I’ve read a thread here where members point to the fact that major breeders do keep their chams healthy in 18x18x36 without problem… here’s the link https://www.chameleonforums.com/threads/cage-size-debate-kinda-experts-please-read.150737/ I’ve found -my chams don’t use that much- it’s...
