    New cage setup

    I hung a pothos plant by double notting a tough string around the lip on the plastic pot and tying (measured) strings around the main string and then to the metal bars. It worked pretty good to use a needle to get the sting through the screen but warning you need two hands to tie and one to hold...

    Winter is coming...

    By heat mat do you mean there is rebtile heating pad in the cage? He won't use it and it won't put out enough heat to increase the cage temp.; it is just a waste of electricity. He needs a heat lamp a lot more than bubble wrap on the cage. PS Bubble wrap will trap in moisture but it will more...

    substrate yes or no and what to use

    Most people say no so substrate because it is harder to clean etc. but you could do a bio active enclosure. I personally have substrate because it looks a lot nicer than paper towels and hides poo better if I don't get to cleaning the cage for a little while. I am thinking about making it bio...

    Metal Stand Inside Cage

    She can't climb it but will try, I don't recommend putting the plain stand in the cage BUT if you did something like string sticks up all the sides and wind twine somewhat thickly around the poles so she could grab that go for it.

    curve casque?

    If it curves slightly to the right/left it could be from a long gone case of mbd or overheating in the past. He looks heathy now, nothing to worry about.

    curve casque?

    Are you talking about the very front of the cascade curving down towards the eye? That is perfectly fine, at least two thirds of the adult males I see in pictures have that and some curve even more.

    A couple questions

    The lay box has to hold at least nine inches of soil (pesticide free soil playsand or a mixture not coconut substrate of anything in that category) so no you can't use substrate without it takeing up a fourth of the cage and spilling out the sides. Also I recommend putting a few more branches...

    Sick chameleon

    MBD no dought about it. I don't think she can climb very well or she would not be like that. Get calcium supplements ASAP. Normal calcium to (lightly) dust feeders every feeding calcium with d3 twice a month. You need to do your best to help her now before it gets worse. Is her mouth open in the...

    An Odd Question...

    His claws appear stuck this happens to Randall not long ago. Reach over the top of the cage and push on his claws from the outside. Try to push one side of the foots claws away from the other If the come loose quickly push the other before he breaks the claws. Also he needs a solid branch were...

    Banana Peppers

    This spring my family planted a garden and over the summer we half forgot about it. I walked into it today to look at a gourd vine and saw that the banana pepper plant had so many peppers its branches were weighed down majorly. Pepper slices would be okay to mix into my crickets deit for a...

    Two lost toenails in two days

    I don't know how to prevent infection but if you catch him on the screen any more I would as a last resort tie flat sticks up the cage walls (not the door so you can still watch him) every few inches or at a length were he can easily grab the next stick. If he loses claws at this rate he will...

    Any quick advice

    Wow, I just looked at my right arm where Randall sat on me. It is really scratched up... not looking forward to when her claws are even bigger.

    Any quick advice

    I know it is weird but Randall is actually my little girl. I named her when I though she was a he and the name stuck. I tried to lure her out by putting ,fresh from my grandmas garden, grasshoppers on a plant but she knows the trick and had no reaction. I like two minutes before you posted...

    Any quick advice

    I am hopefully about to redecorate my Chams cage- I have been trying for a while now because I can't get Randall out of the cage. She hates me so I have tried lureing her on my hand, on a stick, and on her new tree with food but she sees the trick. The next thing I can think to do is grab her...

    Fat or ready to lay eggs?

    VERY fat and showing the gravid colors, she will lay soon most likely. Make sure the lay bin is still nice and moist still. Good luck Lizzy.
