Sorry to hear Rufis has taken some PTO. Hey here's the old school method we used to catch Jacksons. Find a male, tie a brightly colored ribbon around his waste (you will use this to keep track of his movements) and let him go in a likely jackson tree, bush. He'll spot them before you do and lead...
Just my opinion, but I think the intelligent use of misters isn't just pretty, it can help aid in keeping both cages and chameleons healthy. Personally I've noticed that my chams use this oppurtunity to hydrate, clean their eyes, scrape off any unwanted objects off their skin (i.e. skin, dust...
First time I saw that look on a Jack was when a kid tricked it to eat an M&M. That doesn't look like a pissy mouth. Looks more like a I'm not comfortable look. Like he has a bad taste in his mouth. Mines had that same look last year when I gave her one of those stripped cockroaches that smell...
When was the last time he pooped? What color is he? If they get too hot they will open their mouths to help cool down. At the same time they will usually be a lighter color. I'm guessing that it helps to reflect sunlight.
Try giving him a shower. It will help with either the heat or if it is...
by sack&save? That is low. We seen a couple of smash ones after the bridge and near the park in the wailuku industrial area. Maybe their livin down there too. I know mountain side from Iao to Kaanapali has jacks. I drag my GF maybe once a month to go looking at the different poplations. She's a...
Not on any consistent basis. I usually just ask. Sometimes the lady has die backs or low hatch rates. Talk to Karen or Tina, they usually know what's goin on with the lady.
I just got a Bug Napper. Haven't had much luck though. I only caught 3 moths so far. Blue loved e'm
I think Puka was talking about the store here on Maui.
Do the Jacks on Oahu have the same black spots? I have a couple pics in my gallery.
I just hate it when they cram them in there. There's another place that has even smaller enclosures then the place Puka is talking about and they got...
I can't tell which would better but I can tell what observations I got from night blooming jasmine and bamboo (not sure if this is the jasmine your refering to). You decide from there.
Night jasmine is a flowering plant with strong smelling blossims that attracts inscects. As far as I know the...
Howzit Puka, Your definetly starting off the right way by asking questions. You got a place to keep your Jack for the time being? Your cage design is very important, but just as important is how he's being kept now. If he isn't comfortable from now until his cage is ready, he could be...
I would love to share more pics but I have a crappy digi cam. The batts die so fast. When I get a better one I'll post more.
As for the ages. I don't really know. The only indicator I can go by are their size and color. They have all been green phase and at least 5.5".
No, not yet. I checked another spot across the street from where I got the first pics. They were sportin the black too. Some of them were almost half black, but other than that seemed fine.
Someone suggested either a herbicide or an insecticide caused it. It would have made sense with the...
Aloha!!! All you cham lovers. I live in Hawaii on the island of Maui. I've been raising chams off and on for 15 yrs. Right now I have 3 jacks, 2 ladies and 1 fella. I used to live "upcountry" where the jacks roam free. We lived in a 2 story house. The 2nd floor patio was at tree level, right in...
