    completely out of curiosity. .

    Has anyone ever heard of dusting crickets, gut loading etc with whey protein powder? Like the kind you would get from GNC. I was just doing some reading and thought about that. No idea if it would be beneficial or harmful. Just curious.

    Jacksons temps???

    Yeah. I did a little more looking around and think they should be ok. Hopefully she eats soon.

    Jacksons temps???

    I recently got two small jacksons. A male and female appx 4-5 months. When I first set up the new enclosure I had them together (they have since been separated) but I put in a 75w basking bulb a few inches about the cage top. The basking area read 85f measured with a digital temp gauge. The...

    Ok well I put her in a separate cage and already she looks a better color. Guess I learned my lesson. Now lets just hope they didn't hear my Al Green last night and no babies anytime soon.

    Ok. I have another cage to separate them. But would they be ok in a cage 24x24x48? I'm sure seperate cages would be best. But I'd like to have just one big cage going if possible

    Some new additions. .

    Thank you for the reply. I was told not the same clutch. My other question is, does the female look gravid? At first I thought her color was due to stressful conditions yesterday. She is still really dark. I know she's only in her new home for one day. But thought she wouldve been a...

    Some new additions. .

    So ever since I built my new cage I've been planning on splitting it and adding a new cham. I wanted a panther, but just not dropping 300 on a chameleon. So my next option was a jackson. I went to a local expo in my area today with the intent of buying a male jackson and for no more than...

    ? about eating live plants..

    I don't remember exactly. But first is about an hour after lights on in the am. Last is an hour before lights out. And 2 more inbetween. The first 3 are for about 2 minutes. The last is I think a minute. Enough to get wet and dry in between. But again to my first question. Do...

    ? about eating live plants..

    Hmm. His urate looks fine. I have a mistking that goes off every few hours. Been that way for a while. Maybe ill add another session in. He also gets a dripper every other day.

    ? about eating live plants..

    I know certain plants are "safe" for chameleons. But are they healthy for them in the way greens are healthy for us? I'm assuming yes based on the fact that if they give us vitamins they'd probably do so for chams. I ask just because my veiled often eats at his pothos. He gets plenty to...

    Chams space in the wild..

    Yeah. I do think he needs a few more things in his cage. Been looking for more colorful safe plants. I added a wandering jew and like that. Have to hit up a nursery that has more selection.

    Is this a shed spot?

    Nevermind. I just took him out to get a closer look and it is a shed.

    Is this a shed spot?

    I noticed this white area on Murdochs side. I can't tell if its a shed or not. He just shed a little on his casque the other day. I've just never seen such an isolated area.

    Chams space in the wild..

    I was just sitting here looking at Murdoch in his new cage and saying how much more calm he seems. He doesn't hiss as much when I put my hands in there now. And I was thinking that maybe he was a little too stressed out in the medium reptibreeze he just moved from. Which got me thinking 1. Is...

    Any tips on keeping crickets quiet?

    Yeah as much as my girl likes my cham. I think a cricket in bed might put an end to it. Although her dog sleeps with us. So why not my crickets.

    Any tips on keeping crickets quiet?

    I have a nice wide spread on my shotgun. Another 20 minutes I might resort to that. Theyre never this loud. I guess the cricket keeper really muffles the sound.
