Ok great. I will keep hunting for gut loaders. Here are the things that i usually have in my fridge. Tomatoes Red onions spinach (that one is out :P ) Apples SHE DEFINITELY was drinking from the bowl. I was actually stunned. She had just eaten a cricket and while on the hunt had...

Not to sound like a total l n00b. But are dwarf chams and pygmy chams two different things?

Learning more and more by the minute! The only reason i left the towel in there was because I didn't have a mister tonight and wanted to at least attempt to increase the humidity level. Is it dangerous to her well being? Should i remove it instantly? I understand the handling concerns and...

Brad, Yes, she is from the petstore. I know better than that with animails that I purchase, but she was a surprise gift :D I will look for the appropriate suppliment, thank you. I am a bit sad that you cannot handle them that much. She seems love climbing on my hands :(

Brad, OK! Its going back tomorrow. Would you then personally recommend a 2.0 or a 5.0 linear UVB bulb? Also we were sold the ReptoCal for 16.99. It has vitamid d3. Should i get something else? Do you have any preferences? Is it ok to handle these guys? Is it encouraged? Thanks again!

Brad and everyone else, thank you so much for y'alls quick an thorough responses! I am reading and learning from the links. Seems like there is are sites that have already mislead me. Great to be in the "care" of some pro's. Here's a totally dumb question. Do I turn of the light for the...

Looks pretty young, but i truly have no idea. Dripper: Can I use the ice cube and mister method? Can i gut load the crickets by just throwing old vegis in their storage case? I've read that the dwarfs don't bask that much. Is your question still valid since my update? She was sold 2.12oz of...

Updated with pics and Info! And please be blunt, i'm a internet forum veteran!

Hi Y'all, I wanted to introduce myself and my new little friend. My name is Zhenya, and this is Ernie. Ernie is a Rieppeleon Brevicaudatus or a Dwarf / Pygmy Chameleon. (Sorry I am still learning to take photographs with my Cannon XT. The glass wasn't helping.) Today my girlfriend gifted...
