I just got a DIY cage. It feels sturdy and I like how there is a separate door to maintain or change your substrate or drainage. Also the cost of shipping for an LLL is not included whereas DIYCAGES is included in the cost. The LLL cage is 89.99 now but $109.00 normally.
Well here we go, I ordered a 24x24x48 from them on Wednesday. Shipped same day! Got it 2 days later (today). I was very happy with their service. I was all excited, as was Gonzo, for his new cage. When I went to assemble it a few of the pieces were bent. It was damaged in shipping. It looked...
Don't trust them to be correctly gut loaded. Gut load them yourself to insure they are getting the right nutrition. Make sure you are giving him his vitamins as well. I got off the crickets and went to Dubia Roaches and Superworms.
Call Animal Control and see if they will do anything. I wouldn't be worried about the persons reaction towards you (not implying you would be). I would be concerned with the cham.
Are you insane? Telling someone to grab a poisonous snake in any place never mind the head. People sometimes amaze me with their responses, joking or not.
I would talk to a pest company and see what they say. I am sure you are smart enough not to try to pick one up.
Great. I will keep an eye out for it. I work from how so it will be easier to spot.
Doesn't the company stand behind their product? Also I have a flat bottom cage with plexiglass on it. How can I make some drainage with that?
Bought used off Ebay for $67.00 INCLUDING an entire small Zoo Med cage! The guy was selling as a set. I don't need it but, will resell it when I get it and hopefully end up paying about 30.00 for the Monsoon.
That is a HUGE thing with females. they will lay eggs even if they have not been with a male. I know that if you do not take care of that she can get egg bound and die. I got a male just because I did not want to breed or take care of a female with the whole egg laying thing.
I hear it isn't...
Welcome as well. I would do a lot of reading on this site as well as others to see what you can learn. I know egg laying is a BIG thing so I would research that and get her an egg laying container.
My male veiled pissed off at me after trying to get him in a shower to rehydrate. After I put him back in I put his Ficus in with a couple of pink flowers. Left and came back and it looks like he ate a couple of the flowers. LOL Can't wait for my Monsoon RS 400 to get here!
Other than that...
I wouldn't hold him while you drive...Definitely an easy distraction to cause you to get in to an accident. I would try to put him in the 10 gallon aquarium or some type of box with a lid and one of his vines/branches to hold.
Thanks for the words of encouragement. I felt like a horrible owner. LOL I put the Schefflera out to dry and put a much smaller plant in there with 2 nice pink flowers. Maybe that will calm him. lol I will mist longer and get the mister set up this week when it gets here. Also, have to find a...
UUmmmm, yea not so much for him. LOL I will have to find a way to make a drainage system for the cage.
He is all puffed up in the cage now giving me stink eye!! I am not putting the soaked plant back in until it dries out and he calms down.
DANG IT!!!! He got so freaked out he went off the plant to the shower bottom, which he couldn't climb. I picked him up, carefully, then he jumps off my hand about 3 feet to the carpeted floor! :( I got him up and put him in the cage as quick as possible as he is still trying to jump off my...
