Maybe Sir Lancelot didn't die maybe the hawk took him to King Arthur's castle and now he gets to bone Julia Ormont and eat dubias like a boss. but actually that is wild stuff, sorry :(

I considered that, but I'm a little concerned about electricity usage... I live in Manhattan and it is not a cheap bill to pay each month. Is it a guzzler?

thanks! hopefully it won't die (it will, it's an orchid) but frankly i don't mind spending $18 every two months to have one in there. ha!

Questions for cham owners using a cool-mist humidifier aka Human Fogger: Attached is my setup. 1) The tube I'm using to channel the vapor into the cage is pretty focused, is that going to be overwhelming? The vapor stream is softer if it's on a lower output level but then it doesn't...

update A little update on the final form of the cage before the guy arrives - humidifier is now connected, there's an orchid for some color, and got some metal wire to attach log to screen for 2nd basking spot.

commercial gutload Should I even bother asking about commercial gutload? How good are any of the cricket foods or insect gutloading cubes that can be found regularly at Petco/Petsmart, etc?

great info, thanks

Is there somewhere online you can buy reliably gut-loaded feeders like dubias and crickets on a regular basis? I'm willing to pay for the convenience of not having to breed feeders in my small manhattan apartment long-term... would much rather just buy a few week's supply a few times a month...

Ah, good call on both ideas!

Thanks -going to play it by ear on drainage. I think a good bit will be absorbed by the plants, which are resting on trays I can empty. If it gets real wet I'll drill some holes into the bottom.

Elaborate! Looks like a good humidifying system.

You're trolling me, right? Haha if I were a cham yea I guess I may like more realistic trees but I also would not want to choke and die on dirt chunks. :/

Also, I was planning on putting a small heating pad under the cage at night since my room can get down to about 55°. Any better suggestions for night heat?

Finally, here's my setup for a four month old nosy be! Let me know if anyone has suggestions or sees anything off please. What you're looking at is an 18x18x36 reptibreeze. On top is a 12% Arcadia and a 5000k bulb for plant growth. Two 60W bulbs provide basking spots, one up top at about 83°...

Nice!!! That's a bromeliad, right?? Are they safe? Would love to put one in mine

Anyone have a safe glue for enclosure work they'd like to recommend? Thanks.

ok seems like they're good to go then, just variations on arboricola..

I know that actinophylla is no bueno but what about Trinette and Capella variations? Confused because Home Depot lists them as arboricola under the product specifications. I obviously do not know much about plant taxonomy. Thanks...

great, thanks for the quick response. I'll see if I can find one to fit the extra 18" hood I've got.
