    My Veileds been showing his "po'd" colors..

    The past day or so, my male veiled almost constantly has been a little darker than normal and black spots all over him. I haven't changed anything recently. Wondering if anyone has any ideas as to what this may be. The only one thing I was thinking is maybe he wants a little hotter...

    When can I upgrage my cage?

    At what age or size can I put my veiled into a bigger and final cage. Hes about 3-4 months old now and maybe a little longer than 3 inches from snout to vent. Im eager to build what I have in mind but don't want him getting lost.

    Eating soil

    Mine just started doing this as well, a young male veiled. My last jackson was doing it too. Granted for the first 2-3 weeks I wasnt supplementing with anything, but just started using a daily calcium supp w/o d3. So im hoping he doesnt have the need to anymore, although I covered everything...

    NO love for the stick

    Thats weird, when I put some horizontal dowels in my chams cage, he was doing laps, but doing them ON the rods. He loved it.

    Murdoch found his mini free range..

    So I realized I had a hook right above my cage and wanted to hang a plant there. Went and found a potted pothos with one long vine. I hung it over his cage and when I have no crickets in there, I open the door and put the long vine in his cage. Well the other day he finally realized he can...

    Question re: drinking..

    Sorry, I thought saying " shoot" wouldve been self explanatory. I mean with his tongue, like he was eating.

    Question re: drinking..

    I have been a little worried about my most recent cham I got. I havent seen him drink much at all. I saw him drink a little the first week I had him and then nothing since. I installed a mist king and have that go off every few hours. So just before I decided to run some water thru the...

    Do you use natural sticks??

    Cool sounds good. Thanks I want to get more horizontal pathways going especially since the new cage is going to be a lot bigger. Im moving into my girls place, so I have to make it look good.

    Do you use natural sticks??

    I am going to be building a new cage once I move into my new place and want to change it up a little. I noticed a lot of people here have sticks or branches in their cage that look like just sticks that were found in the backyard. If so do you treat them any way?? I was thinking of getting...

    Can you make it too humid?

    There is a way to test a hygrometer. Think you have to put it in a bag with salt. If you Google it you can find it. I did it a while ago for my humidor.

    Substrate with Jacksons..?

    I had an idea recently regarding susubstrates. I know some people like the look of it. What if you put a fine mesh screen over it. This way you would have the look of it but the cham wouldn't really be able to get any. Not sure if anyones ever done it, but figured it might work.

    exo terra monsoon/ zoo med repti rain/ mist king ?

    I just purchased a Mistking a few weeks ago and am really pleased with it so far. It was just about the same price as the Monsoon and I bought it locally. Like others have said, its a very fine mist, the timer was very easy and straight forward to set up. The pump itself is actually...

    Adjust my light???

    So I have been home all week vs being at work normally at this time(6pm) and have noticed that my guy is usually sleeping by this time even though I have his lights go off at 7pm. Should I make an adjustment to the timer and have his lights go off earlier?? Or just leave it, if hes sleeping...

    Basic gutloading question..

    I have never really "gutloaded". When I was younger and had my first cham I would just go to the pet store every few days and get some more crickets. I honestly wasnt a very responsible owner back then. Not that she was neglected, I just didnt invest as much time and thought into my last two...

    How old might I be?

    Looks almost the same size as mine and I was told 3-4 months at the store and more like 3 on here. I had mine in my hand the other day and realized just how small he is. He is the size of my pinky. Ive never had a cham this small before.
