Hello @ferdiramadh,
I can't tell if Im seeing things or not but does your chameleon have a lump on the left eye turret? If so I would keep a close eye on this spot! Chameleons rely on both eyes in order to hunt and any obstruction to either eye can cause problems later on. If it seems to be...
My bins are a pretty simple setup, live plants, skewer jungle gym, and there is a drip line that runs above the plant in the back! For whatever reason I don't like leaving the dripper running for extended periods of time, I guess partially due to the water accumulation. I really like the idea of...
I try to let that be the maximum amount of time, and it has never led to any issues! This would not be something I would want to experiment with to find out how long they can actually go. Have you had success over longer periods of time? I would love to hear some of your experiences!
I thought this might trigger some interesting and informative discussions. Lets say you just hatched out some chameleons (<1month old), but you will have to leave them alone for 24 hours... What do you do?
It is pretty much agreed that newly hatched chameleons can be quite delicate and can...
I wouldn't say they are required by any means, but they add another level of biodiversity to your setups. I like them in my pots since they help break down organic materials (leaves, waste etc.). So let's say you forgot to clean up or were just lazy one week the springtails would help break down...
They might migrate to another pot but you should not see them roaming around your house! They require moist environments and therefore will dry up and die before they can become a new roommate 😂. I have kept several bioactive enclosures over the past years with vents close to the soil line and I...
Just as a thought, if you choose to buy organic potting soil or some equivalent there is a chance the soil will have springtails within it. For a broader answer to your question I have used springtails in some enclosures and some without. Typically, I would use them in pots that contained plants...
