Breeding flightless flies is difficult because breeding a flightless fly to a flightless fly produces some flying flies. Say that 10 times fast. It is much easier to "create" flightless flies by hatching them in a very warm, humid environment. A large portion of them will be flightless if...

What a nice looking cham Bob is! He looks huge for 6 months old. Great job with him! :)

How about a picture? How could it have gotten a sunburn? You don't have a heat lamp on it do you? Heika

I went and took a look at the herpmist website, but didn't really see any usable information. Am I missing it? How powerful are these pumps? Are they good for a couple heads, or 50? How do they compare when looking at this chart: http://meherenow.com/blog/rainmaker_compare.html Thanks! Heika

Hi.. I have kept brevs for a couple of years now, and they are one of my favorite species. The exoterra cage you are referring to.. is it one of the glass ones with the screen top? If so, what size is it? Yes, the species lives communally without many problems, although I believe that...

Somehow, I think that the folks at Cricket Food would avoid putting rat poison into the mix. I am letting them know that this thread is going on so they can give some input. FYI.. edema is not caused by rat poison. It is caused by oversupplementing, usually, although sodium is believed to...

Same thing happened with me at Rock Solid. Very disappointing, as it looks like it was a great product. I did a charge back with PayPal. Heika

Just want to comment that if your friend doesn't have time for the chameleon, it would be best for him/her to rehome it. Not fair for the cham to not be getting proper care.. your friend can get another cham later on when he/she has more time. Heika

What about the water? Is it well water? City? Purified, non-purified, etc? There is a keeper on this forum that had problems with the city water she was giving to her chameleons.. she is from an area with awful water. Her chams started having major problems, and she finally discovered it...

Hi Dave, I just selected that date. There wasn't much updating after that, I don't think, and a lot of the later dates are from when the site was being shut down. Here is the full archive: http://web.archive.org/web/*/http://chameleonjournals.com It is kind of neat to go back to the...

Here ya go.. this used to be an awesome website. http://web.archive.org/web/20041208193825/www.chameleonjournals.com/husbandry/

Lacewings are non-toxic. I have considered buying some for my chameleons more than once, but never have. Please let me know how it goes.

Can't really tell from your picture what those dots are, but in my experience, very few of the bullet shaped brev eggs hatch for some reason. I always incubate them anyhow, but they rarely make it past a couple weeks without molding and collapsing.

Oregon, not Washington. :o Brev eggs are pretty close to bullet proof as far as movement goes.

That female looks gravid to me. VERY cool chameleons, good luck with them!

The good thing is that Callie is a great name.. :D

Keep in mind that WC flies harbor parasites. It is best to get farmed pupae for feeding. Flies gutload really easy.. they eat anything. I mix up my gutload and then wait for the fly poop to match the color of whatever I am feeding them. I can be reasonably certain that they are very well...

How are the babies doing, Filip?

Hi Lele, I buy mine by the pound from this ebay seller: http://stores.ebay.com/JERSEY-MARKET_Water-Absorbing-Crystals_W0QQcolZ4QQdirZ1QQfsubZ2QQftidZ2QQtZkm Heika

What nice looking little chameleons! How long did the eggs incubate, Brandy? I have a couple clutches that have been going since March.. another 3 months or so?
