I've been keeping my cricket Alcatraz arrangement next to a window in a small, warm room that we don't use. Seems to be ventilated enough as there isn't a gross smell when it comes to cleaning them out. I was expecting one but I guess the holes in the top of the keeper and the breeze are working...
Anyone that's read my newbie posts asking for guidance will know that I have my first baby cham maturing for collection. As my flatmate has a bearded dragon, I've gone on cricket duty to practice cricket husbandry and get a feel how to keep them alive and healthy.
I bought a Kircket Keeper as...
Interesting, might look into having a similarly large plant in the center of my enclosure.
Do you know specifically what make/model light fittings they are? Having trouble finding one that looks nice.
Hello,
So I've been looking around the net for something to keep my enclosure on. I want something that will allow for some drainage, so not a wooden table for example.
I have an 18x18x36 aluminum screen enclosure for the pending arrival of my baby ambilobe. He'll be 12 weeks when I get him...
I've read that feeding CB chams WC insects is a bad idea as they may have bacteria etc that the chams have trouble dealing with. Any truth in this or is it overly fussy?
Hehe, thanks guys :D But man, this is gonna be the longest 8 weeks of my life :(
No, it's from Lilly Exotics. I did get in touch with Gatwick Reptiles but sadly the guy is actually just getting out of Cham breeding and selling his all his gear.
Hello,
Been posting with newbie questions here for a few weeks now for my pending first Chameleon. I've been doing a lot of research on keeping Chams happy =)
I really had my heart set on an Ambilobe Panther and after soooo much searching I have finally found baby Ambilobes for sale from a...
I've narrowed my potential chams down to a couple but haven't decided for sure which one. He will be around 3 months old and a panther though.
If I can work around it that's cool. I just wanted to find out if it was a big NO to use autos with baby chams so I could start looking at any other...
Hello,
I'll be starting to set up for my new cham this week, the equipment is on its way in the mail. I'm buying an automatic mister as I work Monday to Friday 10am to 6pm.
I've read how baby chams can get stressed if sprayed directly and how it can obviously cause problems if they are...
The breeder lives very close to me so I'm going to see him next weekend and see/have a chat about the chams. From all the above advice it looks like I may have to wait another month before picking the little tyke up.
Thanks a lot for the opinions :)
Thanks all, feeling more comfortable with the quantity issue now.
And thanks for the links, Kinyonga. I'd read most of them but there's some useful info on Adcham and I hadn't seen the website before :)
I've ordered an automatic mister. Does that solve that problem? Or is it an issue that they may get sprayed directly by it which I've read stresses baby chams?
If I decide to go with this breeder then I have access to micro-sized crickets from here and am looking at a smaller enclosure from here.
Where you experienced with chams when you got your Sambava, Greg?
I did look through your sponsor list, Malicious but they're US or Canada and I'm in the rainy UK. It's tough to even get aluminum mesh enclosures over here let alone a cham the right age and type you're looking for! >_<
I work Monday to Friday 10am to 6pm and am willing to put in as much...
After a lot of hunting around the web for breeders I've found someone with some baby panthers for sale. They will be 2 months old when I pick one up in two weeks which should give me enough time to get the enclosure set up and monitored to make sure all is good.
I wondered what you guys...
