    Anyone in *cold* climates successfully keep feeders in the garage?

    No luck in ohio. Even "in the basement" at 60f, it was a no go. Seem the only way to get things going is using a big cooler, and placing the bugs and some adjustable plant bed heaters in it . Its 70F or bust. My buddy managed this with a broken chest freezer. Hardest part is the air flow...

    2 UVB strips?

    UVB levels are UVB levels. As long as the levels dont get in the danger zone, you are fine. And you would even be making a UVB gradient which may help.

    Not amused today

    Mr lola is disappointed when the vacuum cleaner doesnt give it snacks. Even comes out to greet the thing, which he does not do for me. Chameleons tolerate your existence as long as you provide value. Like cats, the only reason they dont eat us, is because they cant.

    Reptibreeze xl and cats

    Cats are going to knock everything off the top Cats are going to find a warm spot on top, and odds are fall through. The only "cat proof" is going to be a converted display case or converted piece of furniture. The current el cheapo is getting a steel locker/cabinet, and sawing out 4 windows...

    How is my setup?

    You can have "a pet tree" and still be fine. If i was going stick happy, i would offer a variety of thicknesses just so they dont develop "bird foot" where their little feeties adapt to only thickness of branch. And it might be the lighting, but yer boy looks a bit skinny.

    Chameleon Feeding Basic Q

    I also do feeder "tubs". Just shallow opaque tupperware with a few sticks (or chicken wire) across it, at the bottom of the cage. It needs to be shallow enough that if the cham decides to crawl into the tub, they can still crawl out. Then the bugs just kinda hang out with some food. Some...

    Sanitizing enclosure plants for parasites

    Time to put some stone on the soil. Cant get to the soil, cant get to the worm eggs. But i dread plant shopping. The mealy bugs are always gunning for me, along with the spider mites.

    2 days without basking spot okay?

    a 3 month old might be iffy on giving him a basking spot at all. At that age is when you start introducing them. As long as its above 70 at some point of the day, they will be fine.

    Opinion on a rescued veiled

    Veiled growth is based on available food. Its why we say dont over feed the females at an early age. The worse case is the body does not grow fast enough to support the internal organs. This does not appear to be the case, and hes not showing any MBD. So he may fill out well once he has...

    UVB lightning Questions

    Uhhh Arcadia and reptisun are the same, from the same german factory. Arcadia does not have a dedicated light bulb factory, and neither does reptisun, they farm them out. Both have roughly the same 6 phosphor formula with one dedicated to just UVB. Both have a recommended replacement...

    Help replacing plastic plants 😳

    You need two T5HO's to keep most things happy. One uvb and one 6500k. Or you can sometimes cheat and use a small halogen basking bulb on both sides of the cage, they will grow towards them.

    Question from newbie - crickets roaming the cage

    between 6-9 months you got eggs. So no def not a baby. And with females you want to restrict feeding so you dont get early eggs. So if you over feed a female, you will end up with eggs before she reaches full size.
