Also I'm getting his timer today and I ordered Repashy Bug Burger- I'll eventually make puree for the bugs but for now with the little budget I got(and how much my local stores Charge for veggies)it'll be fine.
I'm also returning some of the stuff that the pet store...gave me. They...
Sorry if I'm asking alot of questions on here LMAO-
I honestly think the best way to learn is to ask others especially when it comes to animal care and I wanna make sure my guy isn't gonna be sick or something.
I recently did show a picture of his poop on here and lately I've been feeding him...
LOL, I love birds!(little fact about me is that I'm in college for wildlife conservation/environmental feild, specifically to try and work with birds 🤞)
I'll have to get a timer today then- I heard Walmart has them cheap? So I'll have to run there before work and set up a dripper at the very...
Hey guys!
I do have a question, unfortunately I have work all weekend and it's night shifts with no one else home to shut off Jaxs light. I typically turn it on at 7:30 like now but I'm getting home around 8:50- is it okay that it's on for thatbmuch longer? He usually moves into his sleep pose...
I just watched some more of Neptune's videos on Panthers and she mentioned the fogger being used at night however on here I've also seen people saying not to really use it is night temps are 70(which in the house its typically 72-74 at night)
Yeahhhh they got them mini vacs at target, might be my best option.
As for drainage and what you all recommended, they seem pretty simple and even the Chamleon academy was useful. It's just as of now, he's on VERY temporary table. Once we replace that(which would have to be when I upgrade), we...
I clean a little in his cage today but I noticed there are still spots and I can't really get to those while he is inside. Also, there was three crickets at the bottom of the cage and eceeytime I tried the get them they jumped and the cage would shake-
He is still getting used to me and...
I assumed that. I've been cleaning the bottom. Today actually I want to take all the plants out and clean them(with them being fake I'm 90% that can carry bacteria so I wanna make sure I'm cleaning it).
Also what kind of substrate on the bottom when I upgrade or even now if it's something like...
Yes, he does make laps and pretty much uses every plant and branch in cage. Speaking of, I did the dripper like yall recommended and he's been drinking that so I'll be doing that now. (Maybe less ice cubes or smaller holes because it drips alot and I don't know/have a draining system yet. Most...
I just measured to double check for ya!
His sunning spot is about 8-9" away from the heat bulb and uvb. I plan to add more branches this weekend or today and I'll make sure they are that length away.
This is the new uvb in. I haven't misted yet because he's still in his sleepy spot. I think for what I'm gonna keep as a fake plant is the giant leaf one becasue he's been sleeping underneath and drinking on it.
Also the back cover is just a plastic, shower curtain texture tablecloth I cut...
Yup, exactly how it came and I asked what was in the food/puree to double check(potato, carrot, vegatable puree). I got a "small" size for now just to even see if he'd like it. But I'll see how big they get tomorrow and depending on so, I'll return them and get much, much smaller ones as they...
Replying back to this about hornworms. I have just a few questions or maybe someone who may know but what is proper care for them? I remember hearing their scat is very toxic so, how many should I get, what kind of container?
i also did just get some today actually and he took it! I didn't...
I don't know if I mentioned this but I do mist in mornings and during the day and before bed kinda like you all said. While I'm at work, my mother mists for me in the afternoon. I showed her how to do it and told her to not hit him with the water(I think you all said that but I did find on my...
I appreciate that and I'm feeling better and less panicked/overwhelmed. I have a plan and my next move is to order that bulb tonight as I was just waiting for my paycheck.
And here's his feeder, he ate all the crickets today so he's been well fed today! As you can kinda see, I have been...
I made the milk jug feeder station, making sure to cover up all those sharp edges and he's eating out it! Took him a second to see it and realized what it was but he's eating! I'm probably gonna fix the jug itself because the crickets aren't climbing but I'm pretty sure that's because they wanna...
I just checked her website out and I'll pry order from her if I need a certain type. Like I said, I do have a place I go to that has crickets and bugs for cheap. Also I'm not home a whole bunch due to work 😭 and I'm terrified that if I'm not home to get the package as it says in her rules.
As...
I'm back here to ask questions and provide a slight update-
First of all, it's late as hell right now for me(I'm I'm Florida) because of crickets. Is there any way to- make them stop being so noisy? Or can I just put them somewhere else in the house? I currently still live with my mother...
I am going to get a new uvb that Skittles said as it was a need. The heat bulb is a 50watt. This the list I've been kinda going down(ignore the checks). And yes, it is a mesh top. The whole cage is and I actually do plan to get covers to go on the back of his enclosure to keep water from...
