    Big, Bold & Beautiful! Meet my Melleri!

    If you don't mind telling, why are you selling? Yours are gorgeous. The ones I got in came in in bad shape. One had a broken leg, and they both have messed up horns. But I have to say, my experience differed from yours. Mine are NOT easily stressed, and appear quite bold.

    What kind of sealant for custom background?

    Grout or drylock are used in dart frog vivariums.

    New tank build

    I think it's too bright. Take out one of the fluorescent lamps or add something with shade on one end of the tank. The small chams really spend a lot of time in the shade, out of direct sunlight. FF: 2:56

    Feeder cups

    Many people rub a layer or line of vaseline around the top edge of the tub or container they keep roaches in to keep them from crawling out. I need to breed crickets too, because I tried feeding my mossy frogs (Theloderma corticale) some roach nymphs and they simply...don't move right to...

    Monsoon Mister not spraying

    Vinegar, lemon juice, anything citrusy or slightly acidic works.

    Feeder cups

    I'm looking for ideas on feeders cup. I've tried only ONE so far with any success for Lobster roaches (Nauphoeta cinerea) and it's a tall plastic bin that was used for sherbert. I thought my tin bowl for dog food would be good - no! I thought the ceramic cereal bowl would be good - even worse...

    Rhampholeon acuminatus

    Are you using a UVB source over them or not? I can't tell if I'm seeing one in the second post or not. I am STILL not sure what the consensus is on whether pygmies need it or not. I've read people have raised babies to adulthood without any. /offtopic Where are they crawling? In the green or...

    Bee pollen ????

    I eat it raw; I used to put it in my yogurt. I also give it to the dubia/discoids/crickets raw without mashing it up, because it was way too much work to pound it into a powder that frankly I did an awful job with. As for WHY it's good - that's debatable lol. I've read that it's the most...

    Summoner, great thread, just what I needed! Please confirm that 1/4" poly tubing is 1/4" in outer diameter, not inner. I'm talking about this: poly tubing on eBay.

    My Chameleon Room Redesigned

    I absolutely love the pictures. I've used your sticks-across-the-cage look and replicated it with my own, shittier quality sticks and pushpins lol. But I wouldn't have come up with it without your pictures, so THANK YOU for sharing. One thing I didn't take into consideration is when measuring...

    pregnant or just fat?:

    Holy crap, that's a bigass beautiful chameleon. Looks like a dinosaur. Maybe stick some posters around the bottom of the cage so it's darker/makes her feel more secure? By the way, one thing I found unsettling about my females - they always notice when I'm in the room. My female oustaleti...

    Banana for crickets

    Yes. But it goes bad QUICKLY and mold is an issue, which is why I only use it for the roaches, who devour it within hours. Apples seem to be hit or miss - lately romaine lettuce is going unnoticed. One thing I know they always go for is the dead leaves from the yard, but those carry the risk...

    Should I switch from 5.0 UVB to a 10.0?

    I should have prefaced it with the bulbs are for different enclosures. Only one 10.0 bulb, and it's a reptarium - with that thick plastic mesh. There's definitely not enough uvb getting through that mesh with the 5.0.

    Should I switch from 5.0 UVB to a 10.0?

    I just went out and bought two 10.0 bulbs. Thanks for the heads up! They were literally 3X as expensive as the ones in the department store. Slap a reptile on the box and you can charge whatever you want it seems. :rolleyes: I gotta' find the chemical coating they use or the gas inside that...

    help me prepare for winter

    A good space heater does wonders for my reptile room. But after a year or year and a half it became a bit unreliable so I'm interested in hearing anyone's experiences with heat rope (specifically the stuff diycages.com is offering).
