    Male and female being kept together

    I get that they get stressed. But in the wild they have be close sometimes. They can't all be a greenhouse apart.

    a quick ? for you guys

    My male jacksons is the same way. All over the place, sleeps in some odd places etc. Hes still young and has plenty of cage space. Yet my female is usually in the same spot up near the top of the cage for the most part. Never really seems to explore. Their cages are set up a little...

    Can misting bother their eyes?

    Ok. I do actually use pretty hot water. Once it comes out of the mister it cools down to just warm. I was microwaving poland spring but switched to just hot tap water. I can't really go from above because the cage is too tall. But as long as its not doing any damage. Like I said the...

    Can misting bother their eyes?

    This morning I was misting my chams. I just recently started hand misting my veiled again. I wasn't doing it for a while because I have a mist king setup on his cage. I haven't set them up on my new jacksons so I've been doing it by hand. And figured while I'm doing them I might as well give my...

    Jackson basks all day...

    Even as juveniles? I see them only eat a few. My female leaves crickets in there all day and ignores them half the time.

    Jackson basks all day...

    It is on top, I had raised the dome a little at first with small blocks under the rim. So I took the blocks out and put the dome on the screen.

    Jackson basks all day...

    I shouldve clarified, the cfl is one of those 6500k for the plants. I have a tube reptiglo for uvb. And the branch is under the cfl light where it is warmest spot in the cage. He has plenty of places to hide and get away from that heat. I think I have the cage set up well. Plenty of...

    Jackson basks all day...

    So I raised the basking spot to almost 83. When I put him back in he didn't go back there. And now he's sleeping somewhere else. Well see how tomorrow goes.

    Puffing?

    Mine hisses a little when I take him out. And sleeping during the day is not a good sign. Sorry. Dont know enough to tell you why or how to fix it. Just know its not good.

    Veiled or panther?

    Can't speak for a panther. I wanted one but didn't want to drop 300. I've had two veileds. My female was a little nicer. My male definitely has some cooler colors. Hes a little cranky when I take him out but once out he's ok. Hes a monster though. Gettin big!

    What do the blue dots mean?

    Yeah I notice mine gets them when he gets mad, and with his grumpy *** that's quite often.

    Jackson basks all day...

    Ok. Ill try. I was told that they shouldn't even have a basking light by someone. I'm not completely new to chams so I knew that probably wasn't true. When it comes to lights hurting their eyes. Is that in regards to uvb. I have a cfl bulb on top that I'm going to move down and hoping...

    Jackson basks all day...

    Hi, I'm a little worried about my male jackson. He basks in the same spot for pretty much the entire day. It started to get a little chilly here recently and it was cold for a day or two but I just started putting the heat on. Right now the room temp is about 70 and his basking spot about...

    New jacksons not eating. ..

    So I've had my two new jacksons for a week now. The second day I had them was the first time I fed them and they both ate. Now I haven't seen them eat for a few days. I had crickets in there pretty much at all times and tried butterworms. They seem to be ok, both are drinking. How long...

    Anyone go to Long Island expo last weekend?

    Its a shot in the dark but figured I'd ask. If anyone went, let me know I have a question about one of the vendors if you might know who they were. Thanks

    Is it just me or..

    Do jacksons seem less shy about drinking in front of me than my veiled. My veiled very rarely drinks in front of me whereas my new jacksons just go right over and start lapping up a drink and not caring that I'm watching. My other jackson was lime that too. Would drink straight from my...

    Yea like I said, it was purely curiosity. My chams look pretty healthy not really worried about adding anything. Just wondering.
