...some time hunting them down. My male veiled got a bit chunky from all of his snacks, but the others do just fine and I think it’s nice enrichment for them. At least one of my girls, who previously used a standard lay bin, didn’t find her bioactive substrate suitable to lay her eggs in. Out of...

Thats actually a good. Idea. I got u now. 🤣

Oh yeah she lovesssss the dragon gel and it has supplements and all the nutrients needed in it! I still use other stuff with it though because variety it good and I'll buy that beardie ball!

You definitely don't want to take them on walks, but going outside is great enrichment!

Hi all! I was just wondering about pet enrichment. Other reptiles and animals can have toys or learn tricks but just for a chameleon it can get a little boring! Is there any way to provide enrichment for our friends other by providing a wide variety of foods? Every time I do a major cleaning...

luckily my guy loves them so they go fast for me. but they dont really provide him the enrichment of hunting, so im always throwing in some flies and mantids too. but that same thing happened with me with hornworms once...they got about the size of a finger and i left them with their chow they...

I love doing that for Yoshi…. I have a 3ft dracena and a giant fig a

...me wonder about a vitamin deficiency. However, I’d still advise replacing the artificial plants for live ones, just for aesthetics and enrichment. What are you giving for supplements and how often? Having them correct is essential. You will be needing to upgrade your handsome guy to a...

...it is... My guy gets plenty active in the morning, but it's also providing the various gradients, perches, hides, places to lay her eggs, enrichment, etc. What kind of plywood have you got? I can't stress this enough because softwood veneers (pine, spruce, cedar, etc.) contain VOCs, and in...

...high up Great! Make sure to have it at the right distance. You can keep bringing him outside even after you get his uvb bulb, it’s great enrichment, and the real sun is always better than fake sun! If you’re taking him out consistently, you’ll need to cut any D3 supplements out of his diet...

...excited by the prospect of coming out—it's a chance for escape and freedom! Letting him out for a bit is can be considered a form of enrichment, which is generally a good thing for animals in captivity. Here's a study: Moving beyond the “Five Freedoms” by Updating the “Five Provisions” and...

...the shiny plastic and when they do escape into the cage occasionally my Cham takes care of them throughout the day so they add a little enrichment to their lives! Dubias are a better staple feeder but not as available in my area so I do a combination of crickets, dubias, and black soldier fly...

...already said, parasites and pesticides are both potential risks. I personally think the risk is pretty low with occasional feedings for enrichment purposes, but it should be considered. With Spicoli, he's about 6 and slowing down so he's not going to be around forever; I just want him to be...

After a while, a little change can be beneficial, i.e. "enrichment". New opportunities to explore & grow. Reptiles can get bored too, so I try to "mix things up" a bit a few times a year. They usually spend the next week checking out the changes, and modifying their sinister plans for world...

Hunting watching them hunt is enjoyable add some flying insects and boom my hoehnelii loves hunting soldier flies and I love watching him hunt for them

...to be less nubbly so they're a bit more comfortable. But it's good for them to have a bunch of different types of branches to flex out their feet and give them some enrichment. At any rate they don't seem dangerous. Like they're not sharp to the point where if you press on them they cut you...

I do respectfully agree that the guitar head does vibrate but I see no harm in taking a couple pictures. I would not recommend doing it a lot or playing because it could mess with them. But some ways (if yo ur chameleon likes being handled) you could enriche them is…. Put there favorite feeder...

...to detect. They killed the plant, but I kept the braided trunks to use as branches. If your cham gets around fine on the plants, IDT you necessarily need more branches. Personal opinion: Less branches can be "enrichment"—incentivizing them to figure out how to get from point A to point B.

...(and not LED) it should be OK. I have a male panther, and our ambients hover around 70F. I let him out a couple times a week for 'enrichment'—climbing around on the Missus' houseplants, and he does fine down into the high 60s. We had an outage last week that dropped us into the lower 60s...
