I would tend to agree. If your cham gets outside time, then just throw that money into a dope new home for him. We just finished winter up here so outside time wasn't really a viable option. My guy just got his first sunlight in probly 6 months last weekend and he for sure appreciated it!
I always had issues with mine putting out minimal UVB. I thought it was great until I got a solarmeter and got to test that bad boy out. I know people use them with success, but on their own, they offer very minimal lighting especially for a 2x2x4 enclosure
If you want to do a deep cleaning of the walls you could just use regular water. It will create the white spots on it, so you would need to finish with RO or distilled water, but the PVC is pretty resilient and snaps back when stretched.
I cant believe I'm getting involved in this, but I guess ill jump in, what the hell. Its pretty simple economics really, and I don't exactly get what everyone is pissed off about. At no point does Todd claimed to have created his own lighting systems. He is a licensed arcadia bulb salesman...
I agree. DS cages are great, and the ledges just make your life easier. If its a female though, I would probably just go with an XL Keeper cage. I have an atrium and the thing is huge. Imagine two 24x24x48s next to each other and that's the basic size of an atrium. I found it kind of hard...
If I can interject here for a second. I think there is a misunderstanding in here somewhere, even though I love a good fight. The idea of the cool mist humidifier isn't that it is inherently cool. The idea is that it is room temperature as compared to a warm humidifier, like the ones Vicks...
Agreed. Its better to offer UVB and heat separately. The animal should have the choice. Also big proponent of the 12% bulb, but you need to offer adequate shaded areas.
They aren't, but just not as populous since we started using so much pesticide. Also the rocky mountain locust became extinct some time ago. the only reason you see them in Europe is because they don't have crickets.
