Not really planning on purchasing any animals at the show, I'll mainly be there for the sights and maybe some supplies. Hopefully I'll learn some things also. I'm not really into snakes at all. Sounds like it's going to be fun. I'll bet I'll see all kinds of crazy stuff.

I'm into Nissans. Here's my 84 200SX. I got this thing because it's weired. I love it. My 93 240SX: My other 89 240SX, been working on this one for about 4 years now :-( And this is what got me started when I was in Japan in the Marines: sold it for $800.00 when I left.

Hey guys. I have been reading up on Chameleons (and it's been very interesting) and I plan on attending the Reptile Expo here in NC with my girlfriend next month. I'm totally catching the fever and can't wait to get myself a panther later on this summer(August - ish?). I have been reading up...

haha, this just made me smile. Glad theres nothing wrong with your "boy"

I bought the Panther book from the bookstore guys, I can dig in all next week on my business trip. I also have been reading up on enclosures and have something neat in mind. I have a friend who is a metal fabricator ;-)

This type of thing happens with people who keep hermit crabs also, as they require a high-humidity and tropical temperature. I think ultraviolet light prevents mold from growing. Are you using any sort of special lights?

Actually pretty easy, needs conure food (NOT "bird seeds") and fresh water daily. Cover him at night, toys. Can't have a cold house. He loves to bathe at least once a week. Hand fed (basically means fed by humans after hatching instead of momma bird) are 100% hands on pets. He's smart and...

I calibrate things like this for a living guys, I/R thermometers probably suck for your application. What sort of accuracy are you looking for? In a controlled test enviorment (pointing directly at a flat black surface) are usually +/- 2.5F. I calibrate some of the more expensive ones...

Here's mumble during and after a lukewarm shower. He loves to bathe.

I'd say the best way to do a setup like that would be to either look for a used cage or one that was damaged in transit at a pet store. I couldn't imagine buying a brand new care like that and then cutting it up. It would be nice if some manufacturer made a chameleon cage that was built...

My conure's cage cost me about $400.00 it's 24x24x32. The rigidity of a bird cage would allow you to mount light fixtures to it. looking at my bird's cage I'd imagine you could cut the top bars and replace them with wire mesh, you could then mount your lights to the pertch on top faicing...

Figured I'd just put it out there for discussion. Most modern bird cages are also designed not to rust (because people mist there tropical birds). Also branch type bird perches could be attached to the sides. For argument's sake I think the bars might get too hot if a light is close to them...

Has anyone kept an adult chameleon in a bird cage? It occurred to me that it could be an attractive enclosure. I keep my conure in something like this: On mine the top tray is removable with mesh on top. Seems like it would provide good air flow and the chameleon could climb on the cage...

My conure actually looks a lot better now then he did in that picture. He had not gotten all of his adult color and we didn't clip his wings again after we got him. I talked to a local guy here on AIM and I think he might be able to help me out a bit through my process when I'm ready. I...

Hey guys, I'm Sean. Not sure how to introduce myself on a pet forum so here goes: I'm 29 years old and was in the Marines for 9 years. I calibrate electronic test equipment for a living. Me and my girlfriend (over 3 years now) are into animals and spend lots of time at Zoos and...
