My little guy is rejecting everything but flying insects. We've tried silkworms, waxworms, butterworms, crickets, roaches with minimal success, he does however go crazy for flying bugs (flies and moths). So my question is, how do I minimize the risk of parasites with flying insects? None...

Unfortunately the dryer sheet doesn't work with Carpenters. They were walking over it like it wasn't there. :(

Help!!! I've been invaded by Carpenter Ants! They've targeted some of Gonzales' food (crickets & waxworms) and wiped out half of them. They're somehow getting into his cage too and are going after his crickets in their too (cup feeding has had to stop for now because of them). Not many in...

Hi there, I'm looking for suggestions on what to do with our 40 gallon aquarium. To be honest, I'm totally bored with community freshwater. Cichlids all seem to need larger tanks except a few dwarfs and they don't really meet my fancy. I left saltwater (temporarily) due to our toddler...

Seriously!!! Where?! I've never seen one except in the US. That's awesome!! :D I never realized colour had an effect but I guess that makes sense. I love food idea! Gosh I can't believe I didn't think of that! Dodolah: Your cup is awesome!!! I might steal that idea if I can find a...

I'm not great at estimating but It's about 3 inces long by about 2" wide by about 2" deep. We don't have milk jugs in Canada :( otherwise I'd SO do the same.

The drownings are actually under control now since we punched the zillion holes in, but I seem to still loose an aweful lot. I don't think they're too hot since the free roamers are usually under the basking light directly. But it just dawned on me that they may be killing each other, hence...

More Foliage It Is! Thanks for all the help! Here's his new diggs. I couldn't find an umbrella plant or a ficus in the local home depots or rona but did find another habiscus that I really like and check the flowers coming up. Cage Info: Cage Type - Flexarium 65 (30" x 16.5" x 30")...

I'm hoping you can direct me to where I have gone wrong with two problems with feeding cups. My baby veiled doesn't seem to get it. I put a few crickets (4 or 5) and meal worms in there and he never touches them. So he doesn't starve, I toss a bunch free roaming in too. The second problem...

I have a little question, I saw on a previous thread that a grow light is recommended for my hibiscus plants and that sounds good, but is there a threat of hurting my little guys eyes if I do? I know there's a problem with blindness with the compact UVB bulbs, but could I face a similar...

Wish I could answer any of those, but all I can suggest is get him to a vet asap. The other people on this forum are brilliant and will likely have better suggestions.

Awesome, thanks! I'll add more plants today :) I really appreciate the help!

Aside then from that, does it look like I have enough foliage? There's a tonne of branches & sticks behind the two live plants and there are 3 fake vines on the back. BTW: When should I start feeding veggies?

Oh, right, thanks...I meant to type that in but posted before I did (that was dumb). Thanks for the reminder :)

I have a new baby veiled (male) and I'd like to get your thoughts on his setup. Cage Info: Cage Type - Flexarium 65 (30" x 16.5" x 30") Lighting - Flourscent UVB (Reptiglo 5.0) Basking (75 watt) Temperature - Basking 85, Rest 70 Humidity - 65% (with use of live plants and a...

You are awesome! Thanks a bunch!!!!

I'm researching supplementation and would like some input. I've reviewed raisingkitty's website about it and that makes sense to me. While online shopping at Petsandponds.com I found a product called TREX Chamelion Dust. Here's the product info: --------------------- TREX Chamelion Dust...

I was wondering about wild-caught food for a chameleon. I understand that in the city you risk contamination of bugs with fertilizers and chemicals like that. I work in the country, just outside of London, ON. The office is surrounded with a creek, forests and a farmer's field (that's...

Thanks, that's what I kinda thought too. I have been on RaisingKitty like crazy. LOVE THAT SITE...author needs to write a book. Hadn't seen the other post but that is great! Thanks again! I LOVE this site

Hi there, it's my first time so please be gentle :D I'm looking to get a veiled or panther chameleon (haven't quite decided which yet). I lost my first veiled :( She was given to me by a friend who couldn't bring her with him to his new apartment. Not having known much about chameleon's...
