LOL mini soaker hoses.

Here is your typical b complex. obviously you are not giving a whole pill to a cham. And then we go with good ole herptvite I dont know if you need more than this, but its got all the usual suspects covered.

I just have one nozzle in my dripper. it fills up during the misting, and then drips for another half hour or so. I tried the little/big dripper, but they were a hair trigger and changed based on how full they were. Dripped too much when full, and didnt empty if adjusted for normal drip when...

Yes thats why i said B complex. The Big players are B6 and B12, but i know B1 is used to. And im not sure which B is used for shedding, the Complex is a cheat code for individuals that are known to end up with stuck sheds even with perfect humidity. I only have the pills so i just crush them...

Calcium(its not just for bones, its what the muscles use to contract) Vitamin D Vitamin B complex So if you want a bit of a booster, you can crush up a people vitamin B complex and powder the feeders. Since B is water soluble, its impossible to give too much. A B boost also helps with...

Grouchy made it to 14. He even started beardy pattern baldness.

Worst one for me was just under the skin injections in the arm. They dont tell you that if you dont put pressure on when pulling the needle out, the meds can run right back out the hole. it was more traumatizing for me than the cham.

Cham's first defence mechanism is "drop and run". Their chest cavity is a giant air bag, their ribs are springy cartilage. You could throw a cham from a plane and they will be fine as long as they hit leaf litter. Hitting a non carpeted floor or "rocks" is a bit more risky, but its still...

Im guessing it standard window screen, which is vinyl "because its soft". So that would be 50% light blockage. But even if the UV index is 4, and its blocking 50% down to 2, thats 2 "throughout the cage". That is completely different than "2 at basking and .2 a foot farther away".

Sister's dogs love outfits and want to go on walkies in them. My dog freezes in place and wont move unless under duress. Its cold out, you are a short hair, its either the doggie sweater or no walkee.

https://themeshcompany.com/mastering-the-calculation-of-mesh-open-area-percentage-in-woven-wire-mesh/ So its a simple calculation if you know the gauge of the hardware cloth and the mesh size. As a rule of thumb for "window screen style", galvanized blocks 1/3, and vinyl blocks half. But i...

Flappers are not very hot blooded chams. You are perfectly fine keeping them at 10c for a week. But no power bank is going to keep a cham warm for a week. Even DIY you are talking $1000 or more. Lets say you get a VERY efficient heating system going, say 200 watts continuous. Say 7 days, 24...
