Oops, the link I gave is a list of plants that r safe to go in ur cage, not for ur cham to eat

FlChams has a list of plants that r safe for chameleons. Here it is: http://www.flchams.com/safe_plant_list.asp

I was also having trouble with drainage issues so i started a thread and found some solutions. Here is the link to the thread: https://www.chameleonforums.com/drainage-88381/

I personally enjoy it! The accomplishment from successfully breading bugs and keeping chameleons healthy is priceless lol

I know nothing about locusts, so i apologize for not answering ur question. But i would suggest looking into keeping/breeding mealworms or dubia or something to save money since ur cham doesnt like crickets. It isnt very hard to do and u can find all the info u need on the internet or the forum :)

Have u tried cup feeding? By putting insects in a cup and putting the cup into his cage, ur cham might begin to associate u with the food he gets. Hopefully causing him to get excited wen u near his cage because hes hoping u have a snack for him. Hopefully that would lead to him allowing u to...

I got all my supplies from Home Depot. I used 8 foot pine 2"x4"'s that i cut into 1"x1" pieces and i screwed them together to make the frame. Then i used a staple gun to staple the aluminum screen around the frame. I also used hinges and a latch on the door. It was pretty easy and affordable...

More commonly u see crazy bright color combinations with Panthers

First off, u want plants in ur cage for sure. I would recommend u get ur chameleon to a vet and then find a checklist of things u need to keep a chameleon and go down the list making sure u have everything. Also find a feeding schedule and make sure u're giving him the diet he needs

Well if you use the metal screen on top of the laying dish then I dont think the ratio is that important anymore. I'd just keep doing what you're doing but try the metal screen on your laying dish. If your eggs are still getting eaten then try having less males per female

This is a really good idea, I also use this technique and it seems to work well so far :)

Considering that I havent used any waterproof coating yet, how important is it? Will the wood rot pretty quickly even if im just hand misting?

Well they shouldnt get the chance to eat very many of the eggs if you take the dish out quick enough. Another way to help the problem would be to lower the number of male crickets you have. 1 male to every 4 females is all you need so I could start feeding some of the male crickets to your cham...

No worries. Do you understand what I mean though?

Well like i said, take the egg laying dish and wen it has eggs in it then put it in a bin that has no crickets and the eggs will safely hatch there.

Oh i guess I forgot to say wut kind of wood i actually used. The 2x4's were pine. I havent put any waterproof coating on it yet tho

U should have an egg laying dish that is filled with moist soil or sand that they can lay their eggs in. Leave it in their bin for a week or 2 and then remove it and place it into a separate bin to hatch. But put another dish with damp soil back into the bin wen u remove the first one so u can...

I used 2x4's as my frame, but i cut them into 1"x1" pieces. Then I used aluminum screen around the frame. Hope that helps, here is a pic

Yep! Thanks :)

Thanks for the help. It sounds like this topic just depends on personal opinions and experience
