i wish i could do that with my cham, but my cats would somehow get into my room and torture him even more than they already do. i cant wait till i have my own place and im gonna get a ton of pets.
do you have to shower them? mine is over 9 mo old and i haven't showered him. first i ddint know how to and second he doesnt like to be out of his cage. but if i mist him enough direclty will that be ok?
if you cant find latex paints u got some problems. all indoors and most outdoors paint is latex based, the only kind that is normally not is deck paint which is made for heavy traffic. go to lowes or home depot and go to the paint dept. and then ask for latex paints. mostly the smalles size is a...
i jsut used plain old aluminum window screen. that way crix cant get out. on the top though i used 1/4" hardware cloth of the lights to get through easier.
i amd mine own and is 30"w x 24"d x 54"t. it was pretty cheap for me as i work at a hardware store and got most of the stuff for half price. overall it was under $100
no i've only heard glass for up to 3mo. for winter humidity you could cover a few of the sides with plastic sheeting to hold humidity, or a humidifier.
sorry the name of the paint is "make it suede" not satin finnish. no idead where taht came from. no but if you either rpimer of are using hte dowls just rough them up a little with some 120 grit sand paper and it should adheer jsut fine. i did it on bamboo and didn't sand it first and it's...

the day my cham arrived from CA i got him out of the box and let him go in his cage, a bit later i took him out for a photo op and he fell on the ground and turned almost pitch black. even though he made no sound the only thing i could hear in my head was a crying baby
i would suggest a 36" so it fully covers all of the both cages. for basking i use exo-terra's spot bulb in the green box. im now using the 150w cuz its winter here, but during hte summer i use either a 50w or a coiled fluorescent.
ya not shellac, get a varnish THAT IS MADE FOR OUTDOORS like what they put on doors, it lasts very well. i jst used cheap poly cuz i want to make a dif cage this summer and use his current one for his outdoor cage.
i had to get mine out today and into a plastc container so i could bleach the floor under his cage. i got him to climb on the top of the cage and slowly moved the box around until he climbed in it and then he didnt want to leave it after the 45 min he was in it. i think he was in shock cuz he...
ya that sounds good for the mesh, just cover the staples. thats one misatke i made and i will ahve to redo my cage this summer. polyurethane isnt a stain, its waht you put on to protect the wood after the stain. everyone ahs their own way to protect the wood. there are 2 main choices, poly or...
