    Lowering humidity

    My room gets a pretty good amount of cold air throughout the day. The vent is to the right above the enclosure so I have it pointed far right so that it doesn't directly hit the cage. But I noted last night that by 8-9pm the humidity drops back down to 80 and by morning it is at 55, so I will...

    My new Ambi

    Hey CF members, just wanted to share my new ambilobe with you all :) I got him from fellow member Reptoman (Brian), he has some amazing breeders and was a pleasure to work with. This little guy is showing lots of blue/green/red. He is a little older than 5.5 months and my gf and I are deciding...

    Lowering humidity

    So I was searching online for other possible solutions and was thinking about a humidifier or somethign of that nature. Has anyone used these dry packs? And would they be safe to place on the bottom of the enclosure for the time in between mistings...

    Lowering humidity

    Unfortunately I can't keep him outside because of several 'neighborhood' cats that come by my house. But I will change it to one big mist in the morning and then a dripper til about 5pm. I was also thinking to drill even more holes in the floor so more water can drip into the tray I have...

    Lowering humidity

    Lol good advice repto, I will be putting some pics once he gets settled in and comfortable. The mister I use is the 1.5L pump that sprays for about 2-3 minutes, which does not sound like a lot of time compared to what I read on here for others who mist 3-5 times/day for like 5 minutes. I will be...

    Lowering humidity

    Yep, you read the title correct lol, I want to know how to lower humidity. I have been doing a test run the last 2 days before getting my ambilobe panther this week to make sure temps and everything is stable. Some notes about my cage: the right and back sides are covered with plastic so water...

    Question on DIY LH4 & FH4 Light hoods

    I have the same fixture and put 2 heat bulbs and a reptisun on the far right, getting my arcadia/plant light combo next week! But since you have another fixture for the arcadia lights, maybe use 3 lower wattage heat bulbs so there is a larger heat gradient along the top of the cage, instead of...

    2 uvb bulbs better than 1?

    No it's the one from diycages so it's 24 inches and looks like this: [=)____=)___(=]. This is the best figure i can come up with for an example lol, =) is the placement of the bulbs. So far I have a 75w halogen bulb on the far right, the 5.0 tube in the middle, and a 25w bulb on the left for...

    2 uvb bulbs better than 1?

    Hey guys, I'm currently setting up a new enclosure for an upcoming panther. I just got my 24x24x48 cage from diycages and the light fixture to go along with it (which both look awesome and very sturdy btw). My question is, the light fixture has 3 spots for bulbs and I have a 5.0 reptisun and 75w...

    Possible case of Gular Edema?

    just another pic of him in the day time, its the same day too. I'll try to take a better picture of him tonight and get some more angles of him, thanks for all the replies!

    Possible case of Gular Edema?

    In the day time it has never looked saggy, even when I touch it it does not feel fatty or like loose skin, maybe since the branch he tends to sleep on, like in the picture, is sloping downward it just makes his skin bunch up like that? That picture was taken a few days before the pic of him...

    Possible case of Gular Edema?

    Thanks for the info Carol. I feed him about 10-12 large crickets every other day and occasional horn/silk worms; crickets are fed cricket crack, carrots, collard greens, and potatoes; supplement is calcium every feeding, calcium w/d3 twice a month and multivitamin 1-2 times/month. I also take...

    Possible case of Gular Edema?

    yes, he is already sold but I just wanted to make sure for the buyer so I can inform them. Could it be that since he is sleeping he just lets it "hang out", not necessarily that it's the sickness

    Possible case of Gular Edema?

    Hey guys, just wanted to get some more opinions/ expertise on whether or not my sambava has gular edema. Another forum member pointed out the possibility to me so I just wanted to make sure that it wasn't the case. During the day his mouth/throat look perfectly normal and he has never had a...
