SHOW ME THE TARSAL SPURS!!!

First of all, congratulations on your little guy. He will grow fast and I hope you will enjoy him for many years. Here is a post with one way to hang pots in an enclosure: https://www.chameleonforums.com/threads/1-001-ways-to-hang-pots.195286/ Also, please consider moving his enclosure...

This appears to be a male due to the size of his casque but please take some close up photos of his back feet so we can check for tarsal spurs.

I’ve had a female veiled and a male veiled and both were terrible with drinking. I hydrated via bugs mostly. Silkworms are great and hornworms are good too but silks are my preferred method for upping hydration. They’re like little bags of water

I feed crickets, grasshoppers, silkworms, and superworms. I guess you don’t have a petco or petsmart near you?

Wow if that’s what his colors look like now, what is he going to look like at one year? Please send updated Gus pics as he grows

Albert is showing the first signs of an oncoming shed. I used a hand mister to wet some pothos leaveson the other side of the enclosure and gave him 3 large silk worms. Let’s see how this goes.

I don’t use Dragonstrand so I’m not sure, only Reptibreeze so far

If they don’t take the large enclosure I will! I am around Philly so right on your route

Speaking of drainage, I use a 2 1/4” hole saw in the floor of my reptibreeze and then put a simple plastic pot with gravel to make the floor concave to the middle. Black plastic bucket underneath, Coroplast on the sides and voila. The sound of buckets filling is music to my ears. That’s...

I set up all my enclosures this way. It keeps the floor bare for cleanings and drainage.

Feed the floral wire through the eye hook while supporting the pot with your other hand so there’s no weight on the eye hook. Don’t pull the floral wire like it’s a pulley system (lol). Now pull the floral wire while lifting the pot to the desired height. Bend the wire over and see if the...

Using floral wire, cut a 36” piece, feed an end under both zip ties where they intersect, and pull the floral wire up into a v shape so the two ends are touching. Place those ends into a power drill and tighten the drill. Now slowly turn the drill on to braid the two floral wires together...

Cut the end off another zip tie and put it on the end of the zip tie sticking out of your pot. Push that end flush with the pot and cut off the loose end. Repeat this process one more time so you have two zip ties criss cross the pot. You’ll see why.

OK but we don’t want an ugly coat hanger in our enclosure, so how do I hang pots without that? Use a drill to make a hole in the lip of the pot, where it’s double walled and strongest. Now feed a long black zip tie through that hole and across/flush with the dirt to the other side. Drill...

So you went to your local nursery and got a potted plant. Now what? Buy yourself a 24” hobby board from Home Depot and some 1/8” eye hooks. Drill a pilot hole in the center of the board. That’s just a fancy way of saying make a small hole so the eye hook screws into the board by hand...

You can put a 1” thick board on top of your enclosure and screw eye hooks into it and hang pots with floral wire. I hang all my pothos pots that way. If you would like some photos of the process I’m happy to share. I’m actually doing it on a new cage now

That bamboo ladder is so cool. Just watch out for the ropes on it. Nails can get stuck in the rope and pull out. Also what is the purpose of the black bucket up top by the heat lamp?

He will probably just think of it as an overcast day lol. This stuff happens all the time when a breaker flips or power goes out. I feel was WORSE when I wake up in the AM and realize the basement lights were left on all night.
