I've never seen any feeder show such a strong preference to a vegetable that I've given before, but I had some spare bean sprouts that needed to be eaten up quick, so I threw those in with the superworms, and wow they went after them quick! Must be because of the high water content! For anyone...
Okay. He's my first cham. It's his first shed (with me). As far as I know he's about 8months old. Just would like your guys' opinion on whether or not this looks normal/healthy/whatever. I heard spraying sometimes helps them, but he hates it when I spray him directly, so I've just been making...
Type-O! When I said mealworms I meant to say waxworms... You know, the things that turn into moths. Too many worms to keep track of! >.< When writing this, I totally forgot about hornworms, though my boy definitely gets those as treats! (They are just too expensive otherwise!!)
Thank you all...
Okay, so I'm getting frustrated. Too many sources, too many opinions on the internet, and they are all nicely worded and sound like they have some sound logic. So I want to set this straight.
DO HARD-BODIED FEEDERS CAUSE IMPACTION?
I have no access to silkworms ANYWHERE legit in Canada...
I see my cham drink at least twice a week, and I'm sure he's drinking more when I'm not looking! Its strange for me to think that you've never seen yours! I'm no pro, but I'll give you what I do, and maybe that'll help?
Dripper is set for 1 drop a second, and travels through 3 plants before...

Alphebetized plant list of safe plants for chams! Hope that helps! :) This is what I used when I went plant hunting!
This isn't prevention - but it is the best way to get rid of a bunch! I had an infestation around my compost a while ago, and within two days they were gone!
Apple Cider Vinegar is your best friend!! Get some (really doesnt matter the brand - you just want the smell) and pour a generous amount...
Thank you for all the feedback guys! I got a smaller mesh set up with 2 Ficus plants and lots of horizontal branches and left him outside for 4 hours yesterday in Sunny ~26C weather and his temperament when I brought him back in was SUCH a drastic change! So much calmer, willing to climb onto my...
Your reptile room is GORGEOUS!! I am so envious!! Totally putting this on the list of wants when I buy a house!! You can tell that was a lot of years of effort getting it to that point! The pride you must have in it - alahsgdlajhldjahf! :D
Also... lots of people have responded here. Try searching/scanning (even recent) boards before posting a question! ;P

Ummm Im going to say less than $75 CAN including the Dracaena tree you see in there, and I bought cocking and other stuff that I had thought would work with it and it didnt. haha
The reason I used metal mesh instead of plastic is that it gives the structure for this design by itself. If you...
First: http://screameleons.com/how-to-handle-your-chameleon-properly/
It freaks me out when people say they pick a cham up from behind... It inflicts TOO MUCH undue stress on your cham, which WILL shorten it's lifespan. Please, stop this immediately. Handling is not necessary, and a lot of...
Frank your photos are so amazing!! I have a particular love for the black ones with the color, but I agree, the last photo of those colors are stunning!!
Thank you Maya for the FB link!! Kevin has a new stalker! ;P
I will be getting my new passport in the next few years here Kevin, so maybe...
Okay, so I know its random, but it's something that is frequently in my house, and I can never eat a full one by myself! If you aren't familiar with it, according to wiki it is a "low, stout cultivar of cabbage" - whatever that means. Really its just a vegetable that my family's always had, but...
