god, dont even talk about crickets, I hate the things.they get absolutely everywhere and when they escape they seem to turn up a day later about 10 times bigger than their original size!!, weve had a few escaped crickets and locusts over the years but i agree, I think myself VERY lucky that its...

these answers have been really helpful.we have had her nearly 2weeks now and as of yet I havent noticed her eating any crickets at all, we checked the tub and there was still the same amount of crickets in it but we are sticking with it and will continue to place crickets in there until she eats...

yes I suppose I could try that, got 2do something coz they are literally crawling on everything.I havent got a clue how theyve escaped but with them being so tiny I suppose theres plenty of little crevices they coud have crawled through, I hate bugs!!!

well ive just gained the several hours to spare, called my boss and told her a big fat lie 2get out of going back to work!!, will the sticky things u can hang frm the ceiling catch them do ya think?

well, this morning before we left for work my partner was putting in some fruit flies for calypso when he accidentally dropped the entire tub of fruit flies into the enclosure, we killed as many as we could and removed them from the viv and guessed that she'd eat the rest in her own time, Ive...

well weve noticed that when we put the crickets in with calypso they are running all over her viv and it seems as if she doesnt like it coz she tries her very best to avoid them so my partner has put the crickets in an open top container at the bottom of the enclosure, is this okay? im worried...

The problem we had with the maidenhair was that when she climbed on the plant it wasnt sturdy enough and caved in so she got stuck under the plant and couldnt get out, we literally had to cut the plant to bits to be able to reach her at the bottom so I wouldnt recommend it tbh.shes very very...

ok thankyou, 80f is the temp that we are maintaining for her now so seems as if we are doing this right.Im just worryin atm thats all, think ill calm down a bit when she gets a bit bigger lol

no lizardlover u didnt sound rude so dont worry about it :), I would rather people tell me if im doing something wrong coz atm im constantly worrying that im not taking proper care of her and shes gonna die on me :(.yeah I know wot u mean about not feeling them walking on you, the first time I...

rather than argue about what people have posted and why, could people just please give me an answer as to whether 80f is the correct temp for a baby cham, shes around a month old.thankyou

yeah she is, shes so fragile as well and when u look at her she closes her eyes as if to say, im not in go away lol!!

yeah ive read everywhere else that the temps should be lower for babies than for adults but just wanted to make sure as im getting rather confused with all the diff info im reading AND with it being my first cham im getting worried about every little thing.as an owner of 2beardies I will say...

just wondering if 80f is okay for a baby veileds basking spot?, she never sits under the basking light and when I put my hand under the bulb it doesnt seem very warm also what is the temp meant to be at the lower end of the tank or doesnt this really matter?

Im already aware of the sand, we are taking it out this weekend

these pics probably arent very clear, I had to zoom in on the camera as to not get too close coz didnt want to scare her, hopefully ill be able to get more soon as she grows :)
