    Humidity question..

    The white dust is mineral deposits in the humidifier. You can only used distilled water in a reptifogger or it will die in about 3 months. I only use distilled in mine and it's still going strong for 2 years now. Only use distilled water with ultrasonic foggers. I feel like lots of humidity...

    New enclosure!

    Everything sounds/looks good then. :) Just remember that distilled water for the fogger. You have a beautiful Cham.

    Meller in BAD shape!!! HELP PLZ

    Wouldn't fungus slowly creep across an area and not just pop up in different spots? I can't imagine it's a bruise, i feel like it'd have broken a bone before falling that hard. At least it's eating even though it's not eating enough. That's at least a sign that you're not going to lose him...

    New enclosure!

    Nice, but I'd pot the plant and do away with the substrate to avoid accidental ingestion= impaction. I'm not a plant expert so I don't know what species of plant you had, but just make sure it's safe in the event that your cham eats it. Overall it looks good, given you didn't used cedar or...

    Help! Our Chameleon is laying Brown Clear Eggs?

    Those are slugs. Ever had an adult female Colombian red tail boa slug out on you after being bred? Think of sweet potatoes. Lots of wet, stinky, sweet potatoes. Boas are live bearers as are Jackson's like so many others have said. At least she passed them too.

    Dubias.?

    Shipping is included and comes with EVERYTHING but the bin and roaches. All you need is in that kit. It's actually not that bad when you price everything together that you'd buy item by item. Yeah, I guess you could call them beetles. The females look a lot like beetles, actually. And any...

    Dubias.?

    Dubias have zero scent. Period. If you feed them orange too (as well as roach food) then their cage just smells like oranges. Buy a starter kit from http://www.gregsexoticinverts.com/roachsupplykits.htm I started with kit #4 and it's great! It comes with the best pre-made roach food and...

    Calling all kammer babies

    Yeah. I'm going to have to buy a Kammers baby... I love Chams with lots of contrasting colors, and a lot of red. Like a red bar ambilobe or a sambava... You guys have the BEST looking animals! Do you ever attend any shows?

    Lucifer Jr. baby

    Hey, uh, so can we just switch places so I can have your life? (Chameleons included!)

    So I emailed Petsmart today...

    Every time I enter the store for supplies (I'll never buy an animal from Petsmart) I always make a point that the chameleons, tortoises, anoles and water dragons are NOT being taken care of properly. I'll just ask an employee where the dripping system, uvb and humidity are. I know that some of...

    Gnats

    They are annoying, but 100% harmless and can feed a hatchling chameleon. ;) They are extremely annoying.....

    question about handling

    I'd use your hands for the crickets if at all possible. Just keep trying, but recognize when enough is enough for the day. You don't want to stress him out.

    question about handling

    Some Chameleons just won't tolerate handling. Try hand feeding for a while to get him used to you.

    odorless cricket keeper?!?!???

    I wasn't actually aware that somebody could be allergic to cockroaches. My bad. I guess I just didn't consider that aspect. I would have thought that crickets would be able to cause more allergy issues.

    odorless cricket keeper?!?!???

    Why not breed dubia roaches? They're much easier to keep and you can feed anything from a spiderling tarantula/hatchling chameleon to an adult bearded dragon. They also breed a lot faster and have a higher nutritional value than crickets. They also don't jump all over the place and don't have...

    why should u shower your chameleon

    Room temperature. NOT HOT, and don't spray the Chameleon directly either. Let it bounce off the side of the shower and onto the lizard.

    Calling all experts! Tips on great starter species!

    You make a very good point. I totally forgot all about the wild aspect. I will just monitor it for the first few feedings, and if it has trouble I'll try and cup/hand feed it.

    Calling all experts! Tips on great starter species!

    I'll probably be purchasing a chameleon that is only about 1-2 months old. I would rather not buy two cages, so can I just use the adult size 30x30x48 reptarium i have planned and just heavily plant it for the baby, or should I really just get another smaller reptarium? I can definitely put...

    mist king ultimate !

    I would have just gotten the basic one for that application. It can run up to ten nozzles. You'll have no problem running 1-25 with yours.

    Calling all experts! Tips on great starter species!

    I've thought things through, and am one hundred percent sure that I'll be going with a Panther. They're apparently easier to handle in general and are definitely more beautiful in my opinion. What watt day bulb would you use on a 29x29x48 reptarium? I currently have a 60 watt bulb, but can...
