Three ways that roach will get out.
1. It dies and gets picked out
2. Cham is not hungry and owner takes them out (lucky today but your time is coming)
3. Through the cham's bowels. NOMNOMNOM
Nope, it's a hospital tank I use for chams that just aren't eating or drinking as they should. Right now it's home to a gravid Mt. Meru Jackson's that is just not drinking as much as she usually does.
Caught my wife in a good mood. Showed her the tank and I'm home free. I even managed to convince her that no guests would ever stay in that room so out went the bed!
I don't think I would use glass for permanent housing for chams....Too many problems. It was cheap so I grabbed it, but now I have no idea what to do with it -_-;;
I happened upon an Exo Terra Large X- Tall brand new for $150!!! on Craigslist so I jumped on it. I figured I could use it for an emergency hospital or quarantine enclosure or for babies.

You can try opening a thread under the Health Clinic section of the forums. Be sure to check out the sticky titled "How to ask for help" and fill out that form. Get some pictures of your cham and her enclosure and we can try to help further. -=)
Superworms will be better than waxworms. Try to see if your cham will take those. If you really want to get him back on crickets, just starve him till he eats.
Thanks. I'm not sure if she is because they were imported this spring and the guy I got them from said she laid a clutch three weeks before I picked her up, and they were housed separately. She hasn't mated since then, so unless she is retaining sperm I don't think she is....Who knows with these...
