    Plants that tolerate daily soakings?

    Thanks guys, pothos it is. I will redo the whole thing on Sunday. The poor umbrella plants are nearly done in with little cover left. They lost most of their leaves pronto. :( Thanks for the info! Carole & Louie

    Plants that tolerate daily soakings?

    Hi all, you guys were nice enough to help me out months ago when I got my Chameleon (Fischers) and things were going along fine. I have been realizing for the past month or so that the umbrella plants in the enclosure are not enjoying being soaked all the time. I have a misting system set up and...

    Who else is keeping their chams free range?

    I was thinking about "freeroaming" my new Fischer's Cham within a floor to ceiling "cage" that is just an area walled off in a room with a sheet of plexi and a screen door. There is a redfoot tortoise taking up the floor but all this wonderful vertical space. I was going to set up large plants...

Well, this past weekend I obtained a juvenile male Fischer's cham. I have him in a too small screen cage...

    Veiled Cham mortality rate

    I mentioned the "no mealworms" thing and this person claimed that they are fine and very small. A different species of tenebrio than I am familiar with? Could mealworms be causing this? I think 4 more have perished now. :( Thanks, Carole

    Veiled Cham mortality rate

    Hi all, a friend of mine recently hatched out 30 baby veileds. 3 of them have died already as she is pretty sure they didnt eat. Another 2 look skinny and weak. They have been removed from the general population to see if they will eat by themselves. She has been feeding mini-mealies, small...
