true but what are you gonna do with 5000 crickets?!?! not to mention they eat alot. i mean if you have the time for it and dont mind doing it more power to you. i just find it a hassle to be watering and cleaning and feeding and seperating. not to mention the smell. lol i guess i only have one...
haha thats sad im sorry. did it hurt? there is a way you can attempt to warm her up to you. try hand feeding her. if all goes well after a while she start letting you handle her. you cant force yourself on her tho.
honestly its alot cheaper and easier to buy them. it might only be worth it if you have a bunch of chams. but if you insist there are alot of good videos on youtube. its always a good feeling to succede at something new :D
i would go bigger on the cage maybe 18x18x24 or 36. they grow very fast. the plastic bin is no way to keep him for long. if they get to stressed they dont eat. once you get him settled into his new home he will eat better. just make sure to give him lots of hidding places, like you say he gets...
there are alot of threads on drainage. i know its not the easiest and fastest solution. but i built a tray out of plexy glass and the bottom pvc board the cages come with cost me about $8 and about an hour of my time. you can drill a whole in the back and run a hose. if not DIY the site sponsor...
haha you can do what i did wayyy back. i had a little plastic chameleon that i put on an umbrella tree. this was way before i owned a cham and thought id ever get one. but now i have the real thing and the plastic one is lost somewhere in my apartment lol
those black dots are most likely bruised scales. do you guys leave the crickets in the cage with him? might be cricket bites. and hes probly sleeping during the day cause he cant sleep at night witht he night light. you could get a ceramic bulb online for like $14 it wont produce light and it...
lol yea supprisingly ALOT of us have seen it. they can swim quite well. but why risk it? i dont think they usually swim by choice, its more of a o crap i just fell in some water. gotta get out.
seems to make feeders taste better! my guy used to hate crickets until i started dusting them with the repashy. now he eats them all up. and the smell is awesome. almost makes me wanna give it a taste....
haha yea. i shoulda coughed up the extra like $5 bucks and got the dyi. but that was then and i was kinda oblivious and didn't know any better. i saw name brand and figured it was best. not the case lol
people (pet stores and breeders) find it cheaper to get them wild caught than to try to breed them. there wouldnt be a whole lot of profit, seeing as they wouldnt go for a whole lot. not saying that they arent a beautiful specimen. but its the sad truth. keeping one chameleon is enough money as...
i have the large 18x18x36 reptibreeze cage and i really hope the dyi cages are sturdier. the reptibreeze kinda pops out all the time when i move the cage and the door warps at the joints. i glued it together now but when it was just as it came it was very flimsy. i havent had a dyi but it even...
