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...
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...
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...
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.
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 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...
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?
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...
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.
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.
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...
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.
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...
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...
