I do have a mister, it sprays for 45 seconds before the lights go on and 45 after they go off. But it doesn't reach throughout the entire cage so I hand mist as well. I will definitely offer him some more hornworms! I was only doing them once a month as a baby, but will definitely see if he...
Is there a way I can make sure he gets more water? I have a dripper running from 10am-12pm, then again before bed time. I also have a fogger that runs all night (11pm-4am) that he usually decides to sleep directly under.
These are a few days old, but I was wondering if these look healthy for the most part. I have been really nervous that he is dehydrated.. There is a little piece of shed in the mix as well so disregard that :)
So.. I feed my boy his crickets everyday. I've had the occasional cricket jump out when I opened their tub, but have never had a problem because they always end up dead. Though tonight I come home late and there is a LOUD chirping from behind my fridge... like incredibly loud.. Is there a way I...
I cannot thank you enough. I think this is exactly my issue... It was marketed as a sun blocking type mesh so I stupidly/ignorantly thought "oh yeah this will filter the uvb perfectly".. I will definitely get a sheet of aluminum window screening and fix the top with that instead. Is there like...
My only worry with that is my timer I use for my lighting only has two slots for plugs.. I found a different 36" one of the same brand that I already use (zoomed) so I think once I get payed I will get that.
Would this be okay? I feel bad because I would need to wait until my next paycheck to get it, but if that's what he needs I 100% can get it eventually, as long as he would be okay with the one he has until then..
Hi! I worried about that a lot too at first. I use it to collect the water from his dripper, but I have a screen type gate on the top that I am going to also zip tie to the bucket tonight. I also want to put hunting mesh on it but am worried the water wouldn't go through.. I definitely need to...
Oh thank you!!! This is really helpful. I have a 24inch one right now that I used for his 2x2x4 enclosure but haven't been able to find one that fully fits the new cage. Do they make 40" or bigger fixtures/bulbs?
I used hunting mesh on most of it, and have rocks in the corners but am planning on zip tying them tonight after work. I used a sunscreen type mesh I got from lowe's to filter the UVB.
Thank you!! Patrolling the territory makes a lot of sense! I offer my hand sometimes to see if he wants to come out but he always hisses at me, so being territorial is definitely a possibility. He is the most beautiful boy ever! I take pictures everyday :)
I have a linear T5 5.0 bulb. I had a 10.0 for my past chameleon but it hurt her retinal and I talked to neptune the chameleon from youtube and she suggested the 5.0 instead.
My chameleon is very adventurous and it is starting to worry me. He is turning one on april 6th so I got him a new cage that is 5x3x2. I didn't have it secured enough and he slid through the bars and escaped it. I have now covered it in hunting mesh and he hasn't been able to escape since, but...
