What's he munching on in the 2nd & 3rd pic? It looks like a superworm, but I have never seen green ones.

I have both the one @MissSkittles has, (which I really like), and some 5-6000k outdoor spots on a few of the cages. Plants really seem to appreciate them. But, I have always had a hangup with the intensity of LEDs. They hurt my eyes if I look directly at them. (And ya, I know, the sun hurts my...

I think all are. Varying degrees, yes, but nonetheless, yes .:)

Where on earth do you get snails??! I have wasted waaayy too much of my life on the 'net looking for the slimy little buggers!!

It's nice to see mom and dad!! So gorgeous!!

My mind is old an very similar to @Klyde O'Scope, but didnt i read somewhere on here that there is some sort of affiliation between TK and @JacksJill? Or was it with someone else?

Very cool! Are you filling the pots in the typical bioactive layering? I've never seen the pots you're working with, but a drain would be nice, if the material can take it. Alternatively, maybe you could just poke a few holes or cut a small slit after applying the waterproofing and people could...

If the pots are black, once everything starts to fill in the enclosure, there is so much shading, especially at the bottom, the pots aren't that noticeable. I have been looking for shallow pots, the kind they usually use for sicculents,to move the larger plants in to. I figure they will stand...

I try to avoid anything with coco fiber. Had a pothos with a coco fiber stake, ended up having to pull a 3" piece out of one of my girls mouth. Only about an inch of it was sticking out of her mouth.

Thank you for weighing in!

It's plastic netting. Comes in different widths and lengths, and different hole spacing . That particular one came from Menard''s (if you have one in your area), but all of the big box stores have it, usually over near the concrete stuff. The chams seem to appreciate it, esp as they get larger.

Mostly in an effort to squeeze a little extra usable real estate out of the enclosure. Figure the ledges can be used as part of the cross supports instead of needing to secure another branch

Has anyone mounted their branches to their DS ledges like this? Any reason not to? I like the way they are behind the ledge instead of in the front. And the zip ties are snugged against the standoffs, not the ledge. They're not as noticeable. The only downside I can think of is if one were to...

I am not sure,but I think they are found in the more mountainous regions. I DO know, that every time we are on Oahu, I am always looking for them. The only place I have ever see them is on CL postings :) Now, as far as anoles, they are literally EVERYWHERE. And we have had a gecko or two show...

All good. I get it. But there's only two ways I am aware of to drop the temp. Open a window if the outside temp is lower than inside. Or mechanically manipulate the indoor temp if the outside air is warmer (air conditioner). The montane species are very cool. One day I would love to have a...

No knowledge of the cham''s past, if has in fact ever been exposed to proper uvb, how long until the new fixture will arrive. You and I, we know our critters would be fine bc they have been exposed to proper uvb. It may not help, but it won't hurt.

Definitely better !

I would still run the uvb and 100 watt until the new fixture comes in. The 100 watt is an incandescent, not an LED, correct? 70 is low, unless it is a Jacksons or other mountain species. You didn't say what kind you have. THROW AWAY THE RED HEAT LAMP.

^ You could mist more at night, evaporation cools surfaces. But it is not going to drop the temp to what you need for a Jacksons or any of the other montane species. No easy way around it that I know of. As already mentioned, you will have to address it either with a portable AC unit (assuming...

From what I've read, they like their space like a the montane species. 2x2x4 minimum
