Hello !
I have free mixed sized crix, some large, some tiny, some a little too large to feed my chameleon.
I am going to give these away to anyone willing to pick up. If you have hungry mouths to feed that can wrap their jaws around em lemme know.
Send a PM and i will send you a picture...
Here is the update so far,
Here is the cabinet/curio/vanity (w/e you wanna call it).
I am sealing it with an outdoor/indoor weatherized caulking that also holds up against UV rays (because of the UVB light i thought it would be smart to get one that does this)
i took out the glass and...

So I found this armoire and I'm going to convert it to a cham cage!
Any ideas or thoughts about it? Anything I should know ahead of time?
Will post pictures on progress within the coming days!
I am looking to purchase a cage (custom built or not) from any one in the sf/sac area.
I am needing a stand as well to house the bugs and the misting accessories.
I am handy enough to build it, but lack the tools and the space so purchasing is the next best thing.
Send me a PM if you...
No offense but as I dove into this hobby, I came to find out that if you can't spend the appropriate amount of money on the basic husbandry items you will encounter problems.
i have a fan specifically for my chameleon cage...BUT it is not pointed AT the cage, it is on the side of it and pointed at an angle at the wall so a small breeze can help with the drying process of water...
I do the same as hoj, but i have the vines from exoterra...
i also use metal floral wire ( i know not the best ) but its what i have to make do with atm...
the coiled uvb light is not a death sentence, i use it and have been for a while now...nothing has happened to BOTH the chams I have/had under it.
make sure the uvb coil bulb is made recently and not the older uvb coil bulbs that had issues.
also...i would change the screen AND take the light...
So I come home from picking up my wife, turn on a dim light to see if my chameleon felix is fine.
While felix is sleeping, i notice ants on the bottom of the enclosure!
spray with water and swab them up, and then notice a line coming up one of the legs of my stand, and from the baseboards...
well i was thinking as long as you have a water source near the food it would be fine ?
i mean i know there has to be people on this forum that gutload with SOLELY flukers calcium feed and water gel...
so why not dehydrated food and a water gel/pillow ?
from what I was reading on one of the websites about dehydration and food dehydration specifically it actually keeps the nutrients just lacks the water...
i mean I agree with you, that is why I would LOVE to have premade cubes to just drop in as well and KNOWING what is in the stuff will make...
