Ahhh... so THAT'S how you did it. :D And HI again...long time no see. Ok, makes sense. Since I have a tight morning schedule, I might refill it at night but wait till morning to pump it up. That should work. I'll go ahead and set it for 4hr intervals (8am, Noon, and 4pm) and if it mists at...

Ok, I have a question about auto mist systems like this one. I was sold a homemade mister by SoCaliSon (:D) that uses an Orbit digital timer like this one: Orbit 2-dial digital timer I have replaced the fittings and all is go... but how on earth do you program it to only mist during the...

Ok, apparently my little Morpheus belongs in this thread as well. :D Here's the only pic I have so far, right out of the shipping box: I'll try to get a few more pictures once he's returned to his, now moved to a better spot, main cage tomorrow morning. :)

Oh, I have been instructed by my BF to correct some assumptions. He was not named for the character in the 'Matrix' but for the figure that the Matrix character was named for. i.e. the Greek god of sleep and dreams. :) The reason for this being 75% of our reptiles have Greek or Latin...

Ah! So that's the reason. :D Now I feel better knowing it's not just him. ;) Thanks for having such a great line, Juli! I'm so glad to have one of them. He's doing well so far. Spent the night in his Ficus tree and headed right to the basking spot first thing after I'd finished misting and...

:) Plans are underway for the move. A few things have to be rearranged and I have to cut some fabric for a curtain (since we stay up late on the computers). Thanks for the reassurance and suggestions. :D Hopefully he won't mind being taken out of his new cage to be placed in his holding cage...

Nope, no apparent injuries from meeting the bottom of the cage. A few moments after landing, he found the screen at the back and climbed up to the top again. :) Had a brief scare just now though: I came home from an errand and heard a loud crash in the cage! I checked the bottom...and one of...

BUMP! Ok, now I have a question for all you experienced owners out there: I figured out a way to rearrange things so that his cage can be placed in the 'office' - a much more temperature stable room with less regular traffic and movement. When could I move him, though? I have a nice...

:D Thanks for the comments all. Actually, according to Chad this little guy is notorious for being very calm and laid back. Which suits us fine since we've had our fill of aggressive, nippy reptiles. :) He seems pretty tough, though, since he slid down a vine earlier all the way to the floor...

He is from Chad and Darci at TikiTiki! They are the BEST and will be getting a huge 5 star review from me this afternoon. :D I am in knots right now, I'm so nervous about him... but I guess that's normal.

Ok, the cham is here and in his nice new cage... but there are a few problems. First, here are the final pictures of the completed cage: Dimensions = 3'x2'x5'. One 24" ReptiGlo 10.0 across the top back, one 100wt bulb in lamp for bask spot, one 75wt bulb in lamp on side for...

At last, the new chameleon has arrived! He got here about 30min ago and is now hiding at the very top back of his new cage. :) But I did get a picture of him on my hand before putting him inside: We really like him, and my BF has named him Morpheus. :D There are a few concerns with the...

Ack! Taxi at the border = death wish. But more so, Pedestrian in Mexico = DEAD! Man, they actually AIM for people walking. And the water thing is quite true. All but the truly poor over there now use bottled water for cooking/drinking and tap is only for cleaning, but still ask (if possible)...

Ok...I know this thread is really old, but I must say this: You'd think management would be thrilled, but they actually get very angry and even discipline employees who "Do things not according to policy". Petsmart and Petco have ARCHAIC policies that are dreadful, but no one cares. When I...

Jan, if you still need a pad I have a whole stack of extras I just sorted through this afternoon. :) Go ahead and PM me if you're interested and we can work out the shipping.

:) Thanks, all. It took a long time to finally get that thing together and working, but I like how it turned out. It actually took so long, and so much frustration, that my BF/partner started saying 'maybe we shouldn't get a chameleon after all' :rolleyes: (The cham is mostly a pet for him...

At last! The cage that took forever is finally finished! Here are pictures in order of completion: Just finished building. Placed on its stand with drainage added. Set up with plants, branches and lights. Closeup view of the inside top. All I have to do now is...

Closeup of the top inside of homemade veiled cage.

Finally all set up!

Placed on stand with drainage.
