Hey guys! It's been a while, but male dubia roaches have overtaken my colony and I'm trying to get rid of them. Selling them for $20 + shipping / 40 males and 10 females

Ahh, cute!! I wish I can have more than one cham, haha! Have fun with her! Can't wait to see more of her!

Calcium should be given every day with every feeding. Do you supplement with D3?

What a cutie! Temperatures seem good! How's the humidity? I would mist for longer times (3-5 min) to make sure he has a chance to drink. I'd go for a couple more horizontal branches and plants too. And welcome to the forum! Looking forward to seeing more of him!

No, you pick the size and then the quantity and then it will give you the price. For example, 100 medium silkworms would be about $25.

It is possible that it is still adjusting. It could take them a few weeks to fully settle. What size is his cage?

No, mealworms are pretty bad for them. They have a lot of chitin and can cause impaction, and they have pretty little nutrition compared to most other feeders. If you MUST go for something like mealworms, then go with superworms instead. They are softer and less likely to cause impaction, but...

How big are your silkworms? How many do you have? How are you feeding the chow? Many websites that sell them say to cut or grind it up, but I've found it easier to squeeze the chow out through a little hole in a ziplock bag. It's easier to control how much you feed and where you feed. It also...

I go back and forth between north and south CA and seasons are much more defined in the north. I just went up last week and it was freezing! (well... more like high 40s, but still) Personally, the year round mild weather is more for me.

Yes, get him to a vet ASAP In the mean time, there should no lights at night. There should be 12 hours of light and 12 hours of darkness. If it gets too cold, use a ceramic heat emitter instead.

Ahaha, glad I’m not the only one who can’t help but keep some of the insects. I started out breeding mantids for my cham. Now, I’m addicted to them. My family thinks I’m out of my mind!

Oh, thanks for correcting me. What factors make it okay to keep chameleons in glass terrariums, and why is that especially true up north?

How did you like it? I’ve been meaning to try crickets and mealworms, but it seems all the products have mixed reviews

Seconding that sounds like URI. Glass terrariums aren’t recommended for chams. They don’t have enough ventilation and can allow bacteria and mold to grow. It is possible your cham developed uri because of this. A screened enclosure is better. For supplementing, you should supplement calcium...

Oh he’s gorgeous!!
