Well, right now I don't have any other feeder than dubia roaches, because I don't have much space to house other feeders, but I thought that I would starts with adding some snails since they seem not too difficult to breed and they don't escape and aren't as dirty. I tried hornworms with my...
Thank you so much. I will definitely be looking into these. Can they be a base food in my cham's diet or only for treats? Also, since the snails have calcium in their shells, should I hold off from dusting them?
I have decided that I want to add some snails to my cham's diet since the roaches escape and die and smell and all those wonderful things. I tried to get some from Snails in the Mail, but unfortunately their website isn't up anymore and I have to look somewhere else. I have been looking for...
Like @Brodybreaux25 said, chameleons are dry shedders and getting them all soaked with misting isn't going to do a whole lot, but you still want to be misting them and their cage regularly. Your best bet is to make sure the humidity is a little higher than normal just to make things a more...
Just make sure to mist him regularly, more than usual, to help him with the shed. Once chameleons get older and more mature, they don't shed as often and usually don't shed their entire bodies, but your cham is a little too young to have reached this milestone of adulthood yet. Can you post a...
I don't usually leave the house for long periods, but if I am going to a dinner or something I will turn her lights off an hour early or so. But now I won't have that problem since I have the timer running, which I am so glad I found! :)
When I am home I can put out a fire or turn the lights off if something gets melted. If there is no one there, a fire could break out and nobody would notice until smoke started coming out of the windows. I know it's silly but I am just wired to be overly safe I guess. I feel so much better...
I just found a hardy outdoor timer in my stuff and it is perfect for the lights, but it only has two outlets instead of three for the mister. I think I might have another wall timer for the mister, though. I am testing out the lights timer until I go on the trip just to make sure that everything...
I am definitely going to purchase this. A camera will give me all the peace of mind I need about a fire. I know that the risk is low, but this will help even more. Is it easy to set up?
I will make sure that the hood is fully clean of dust and debris before I go. Do I need to address any issue...
I do have a mister, not a fogger. I will be able to get the lights on a timer. What I was worried about it that the cage is up against the wall, and the lights get very hot and I don't even want to run the risk of a fire. I am going to see if the person I have coming in to feed her will stay to...
I do use carrots, and occasionally water crystals (if she is looking a little dehydrated) and the roaches love them. My mister usually lasts around three weeks before having to be refilled, so I am not too worried about that. I really wish I could control the lights remotely, and have like a...
But how would you get a chameleon to stop eating a pothos? I feed my female plenty of roaches every two or three days (twice a week) and she still tears up the pothos. There really isn't a solid method to force a veiled to stop eating leaves, it's in their biology to eat insects and plants. Even...
I am going to be taking a nine day trip in a couple of weeks and I was making plans for my cham. She is a little more than a year and a half old and I had a few quick questions about what everyone else usually does for their trips.
I will have the mister on the whole time, and I unfortunately...
