I will copy this feeding schedule, thanks! Maybe decrease the amount of hoppers by 1 or 2. Will keep checking.

I use this feeding dish; it's nice because the base stays stuck to the screen, but you can take the cup part out to wash/fill with bugs. I also feed 1/4"-1/2" crickets, because I find that the bigger ones are the ones that can escape. My little girl is also scared of the bigger crickets. Once...

UVB 5.0 their basking lights are halogens 40w 8” above the mesh 80 degrees in the morning during the day she has a lay bin full of 12” of sand/soil mix I am fully aware she clutches she’s already laid 2 weeks ago their crickets are in a separate critter tank in the enclosure at night I keep it...

Yes, keep feeding her all she will eat twice a day. She should be eating at least a couple of dozen feeders each time. She is using all of that food energy to grow. Veileds do grow very quickly. Usually by around 3-4 months old is when we switch them to feeding just once a day, but we still give...

Hi. For some great buggies at reasonable prices here in Florida, try https://www.lindasgonebuggie.com/page/397479218 She doesn’t ship her silkies with much food though, so you either need to buy some elsewhere or buy your silkies elsewhere. https://framschams.com/collections/silkworms Is a great...

Does anyone have a written guide for how to keep crickets alive? I can't keep 100 crickets alive for more than 4 or 5 days and honestly they live just fine in my garage because it seems that any that have gotten out have been breeding and living their best life in my garage. How big of a...

UPDATE: STARTING TO GET SCARED so, today he is still refusing to eat anything. I tried misting his little cage and mist a little on his face. I also put a little dish in there for water. I went to Petco and got smaller mealworms and small crickets ( and large ones for Spyro ). When I got...

So I am lazy asshole but also paranoid about my chameleons. Wonder If I can keep walking sticks with chameleons, raising them in the same cage. Chameleon will eat the right size ones, so thats right. But would the big ones bite the chameleon during the night? like crickets or grasshoppers...

I think I’m going to try them out; I’ve done the crickets a lot but have read about the grasshoppers as an alternative. Thank you 🙏

Ok, so yeah it does look kind of like there may be something beneath it. You could try to gently lift the edge and see if it comes off. It may not yet be ready though, so just wait and keep an eye on it. I don’t know if pics of my girl’s thing will help at all, but here. Even though she had a...

I don’t have a set schedule on what I feed him but his usuals are BSFL or the flies when they emerge, silkworms, and hydei fruit flies. I can’t keep silkworms alive for long so I usually feed him four a day when I get them until I run out, BSFL usually min of 12, and fruit flies are too much to...

Even if I were to set up my own feeder colonies that still doesn't take care of the vet support problem. I can't breed one of THOSE when I need one! :p Even if the vet could consult with a cham-savvy vet in the south 48 they may not have the meds or technical expertise necessary. Trying to keep...

@Lynn57 Sorry, I'm going to go off with some questions... Mostly, because; how do you keep this going with a rubbermaid bin?! What size? What sort of isopods do you use? Do you buy them online? If so, where? Can you show a picture of the top? I'd love to keep a bio cricket bin. 😍

That why I don’t keep them in the house. I don’t know how will keeping them the garage will work. It gets too HOT. I rather spend crickets every week to just temporarily put them in the critter keeper for the time being. Cause’ crickets do STINK.

I have an appointment at Friday at 10:40am. Wednesday was booked. All the list of good reptile vets are very far from me so unfortunately I'm going to have to take my chances the vet an hour away from me. I gave them a call and asked quite a bit on if they had someone that took chamleons and...

I keep my crickets in a 20 gallon fish tank. I put in egg cartons for them to hide in and stuff. They love them. I feed them leafy greens like normal and yeah. Also make sure to add water to water bottle caps. They love it. If you have a big enough tank with food and water, you could possibly...

Oh yeah! There are several great feeders. Adding a couple of graphics below. It’s important to keep whatever feeder you use as healthy as possible with a varied diet of fresh produce so that they will be more nutritious for your chameleon. One of the causes of picky eaters is parasites. If your...

🤔 Can you share pictures of the bio bin? Is there a layer of clay balls ect., like a cage? But for crickets? 🤯

Oh alright! Yeah, in the batch that I have now, there's a couple big pinheads in there and the bug burger is coming into today. I can do that.

Thank.you so much! I knew you'd pry know about the silkies most definitely! :) I was considering on....switching with crickets again. They are much more inexpensive (to give some context, I am a college student and have a part time job- I'm not trying to spend a huge amount every week 😭) I did...
