    Boycotting crickets!

    Here’s some of my own videos. *Pardon if in some my breathing sounds like Darth Vader.

    Boycotting crickets!

    Roaches are super easy to breed. Get more females than males. Put them in a decently sized bin with slick sides (so they can’t climb out), add ventilation screening to the bin. They do best in a bioactive set up - organic soil mix with some small isopods and springtails, leaf litter and cork...

    @GreystoneExotics your progression isn’t measured by time. It’s measured by how many posts you make, post a comment in and likes you receive. :)

    High Heat Tolerant Plant

    Schefflera is a wonderful center plant with its many branches to offer little roads and lots of leaves for hiding in and drinking from. Pothos comes in several varieties and is the work horse plant when it comes to chameleons. Plant one low/on the floor and let it grow upwards and the leaves...

    Are these collard greens?

    Kale is a bit high in oxalates, which bind to calcium. You can certainly give them to your roaches, but ideally only the ones you won’t be feeding right away.

    That is kale.

    Digging in Pot

    As long as she lays her eggs without problem, she can lay them wherever she chooses. :)

    Boycotting crickets!

    Do you mean where to buy from or how to actually breed them?

    Hornworms - too big?

    Do you know anyone with bearded dragons that you can give them to? I definitely wouldn’t give to your cham if she already had trouble swallowing one. You could put them out for the birds to get a treat.

    Crooked cascue? Wild Veiled Cham questions

    That’s odd about their casques being bent. I’ve no idea how that could happen in the wild. Maybe they aren’t getting enough calcium in their diets. I would assume that they eat the baby anoles which would be a good source of calcium. Obviously they are getting more than enough D3 in the...

    Bioactive Enclosure Curiosity

    Yes! I’m always having to add more. :rolleyes: Not having a single tree in my yard means I have to pay for dead leaves, which kills me. I grew up in a freaking forest and used to play in the leaves! :unsure: You and the Bug Lord are a lot alike. :unsure: 😂 When you said “lawn shrimp” I thought...

    Sinus infection from too much calcium?

    I don’t think she looks underweight. I look to the casque. For panthers, you don’t want it bulging out as that means they are obese. You don’t want it too concave like a bowl as that means too thin. Cheeks are the other indicators. You want the casque to be more flat and cheeks to be flat...

    Bioactive Enclosure Curiosity

    I try to keep a nice thick layer of leaf litter and provide some pieces of cork bark for the isopods to hide under. My chameleons have pretty much all figured out they are there and will often be hanging upside down patiently waiting to ambush some. The isopods have a very well established...

    Bioactive Enclosure Curiosity

    Several years ago, I was advised to use and sold some giant canyon isopods from our then, acting Bug Lord. (You know who you are ;) ). Many generations later and they have been little workhorses of my enclosures, keeping everything clean and happy. I’ve tried and have a breeding colony of...

    New Panther Ambilobe Missing The Mark?

    Napoleon looks good and healthy to my eyes. Everything is aligned as it should be, so no signs of mbd. His casque is neither bulging nor convex, showing he’s a good weight. Eyes aren’t sunken or dull and his scales all look good. It is always a good idea to have a fecal check for parasites...

    New Panther Ambilobe Missing The Mark?

    I wonder if maybe he got a mild eye injury or irritation during shipping. You’ve let the breeder know right away, which is perfect just in case. Hopefully it is something that will clear up on its own quickly.

    Fogger Suggestions

    I have the misting systems set for 2 minutes before lights go on and off and a 1 minute session around 2 pm. If anything, I am having to run a dehumidifier during the day right now. We’ve had a lot of rain almost every day over the past few weeks. Ideally, we give our chameleons a nice cool...
