    175 gal reptarium

    Is it the 29x29x48? Im not much on pairing reptiles or chams due to squabbles, stress ect. I dont know really what I'd put in it. Maybe turn it into an outdoor sunning cage?

    For those of you with humidifiers

    We've talked about humidity before lol. Ok I use a walgreens cool mist placed outside of the cage and when it's on it gets the cage humidity at around 55 with plants inside. When I was first setting up my cage all i got was 30%. After auto mistings and the humidifier being on it goes to 75-80%...

    Misting works best for me also. I stop once they start to hatch as not to drown any. I get the soil just damp to the touch.

    New drainage system

    I love it. The pvc shroud makes your whole operation look industrial. It would be neat if you could route your misting lines and nozzles through it for an even cleaner look. You v'd bottom drain pain reminds me of a auto paint shop sealed booth with the water pan floor to catch airborne...

    eye issue with pics please help

    I second that. If something was wrong with my eye I'd see a doctor before I started to try to self medicate or operate.

    Thats there everyday feeding. For gutloading the things I have used so far are baby spinach, carrots, apple slices, orange slices, bananas ect. I don't do it all the time. When your doing it I put the fruit or whatever on an old sour cream lid so I can easily get it all out of there. I wouldnt...

    Oatmeal and wheat germ with a handful of dog food. Cheap and easy and mold resistant. There are lots of great cricket food recipes. Some people add egg powder and or powdered milk.

    No prob. One time I got pretty close with running out its good to always leave a little extra time for them to grow.And make sure you let them lay before you feed them off. If you have to go buy just a few to feed em do it instead of feeding off your babies or breeders. That is if your timing...

    Humidity Help!

    Hmm. I wonder why. My humidifier isn't an ultrasonic that piezo effects the water into a vapor or a steam driven one. Mine is the fan based one that kinda whisks it into the air. I think they all get the job done. The heated kind can raise temps initially and the non heated can lower temps. I...

    Finally caught her gulping

    They are sneaky sometimes. Next target to spy on drinking is my male I havent caught him yet either. Just keep spraying and offering drips. Eventually they will get the point or get soaked. lol

    If your thinking about breeding crix...

    Yeh. It's been working out pretty well. I normally run three totes. One for my daily feeders, One for the adults laying eggs and dying from old age and One for the hatchlings. I let my egg laying adults just die off in there but I clean it out with soap in the driveway when there done. I then...

    If your thinking about breeding crix...

    It's the 7th generation of crickets for me right now. lol. I havent had to use a heat lamp yet for hatching temps. It's still around 85 degrees in my garage. My last batch of adults that I seperated and did not feed off died kinda quickly which Im attributing to there age and high heat. I saw...

    My home built cages

    Neither one is finished or furnished. Wish I would have used clear caulk on the closer to completion one. I'll fix that with some nice stained cheap thin door trim. Just thought I'd show a pic of em.
