    Moving to bigger feeders?

    Yeah don't measure length of the bug, champs can eat some pretty long stuff. Go by the withth of the big and make sure it's not wider that the space between your champs eyes. You don't want your cham to choke on the bug. Mines 5 moths old and I started giving it some bigger bugs to see if he...

    Cham Drawing

    My son, who's in the first grade, came home from school yesterday and was all proud of the drawing he'd done about his pet Godzilla so I told him I'd share it. I think it's pretty good for him going off memeory and doing it at school. He even drew the feeder cup in the correct location.

    Need some feeder suggestions

    First couple of times I couple them from PerSmart because I needed them right away. Then I got some from Josh's frog. After that I tried some from a local breeder, the lady I get my Dubia and supers from. I keep them in a plastic bin with screen on top, was feeding greens and used potatoes and...

    Need some feeder suggestions

    So treat super worms as a treat? I was already thinking of adding some orange head to the mix. Since I don't have temps set for breeding my own colony... can I keep my orange head and dubia in the same bin? My guy didn't care at all for BSFL so I had them set up to turn into flies but not 1...

    Need some feeder suggestions

    I'm having problems finding a place that has silk worms and the other stuff I need. I don't want to pay shipping for dubia then turn around and pay overnight for silks.

    Need some feeder suggestions

    my little guy is only 5 months so finding small enough bugs to give him a wide varied diet is hard. I tried blue bottle flies, which he loved, but only 4 of the 50 turned into flies. My ability to keep crickets alive is surprisingly aweful so I feed him dubia as his staple food. I also recently...

    Josh's Frogs - Bad Experiences

    I ordered dubia, BSFL and Blue bottle fly larvae. The dubia were fine. I wasn't sure if my guy would like BBF or BSF so I only ordered a 50 count of each. If the blue bottle fly laruve only 4 turned into flies. None of bSFL turned in to flies

    Any coffee lovers out there?

    I have a coffee ninja and a separate grinder/hopper. My grinder is pretty cool. You set the memory for how fine or course to want it, tell it him many cups you're making and it grinds just enough for what you want.

    Can you put a fountain in the chameleon's enclosure for them to drink?

    If you do the shower method make sure the water is pointed at the wall and splashing/misting the plant your cham is on. You don't want to pound them with water. The shower is a great way to get a dehydrated cham back where it should be. I stick mine in the shower once every 7-10 days even with...
