How essential is it to use an incubator for chameleon eggs? They are for ambilobe panther chameleon. I watched some video online and it seemed that there is alternatives if you keep them in a closet and keep a close eye on them. Wasn't sure if temperature fluctuations can kill them or not.

Roach Breeding Do you know how quickly Dubai roaches can reproduce and what the typical life span is from baby to sexual maturity to adulthood?

. I think just putting them on the cages screen is easiest.

Egg Laying And are you supposed to spray her when she is laying eggs? Lastly if there is a blanket over her cage (there isn't one now) does she just not get any light for a couple of days?

SO I have a ambilobe female. She is ready to lay her eggs. I have found her digging in the bottom of her cage, but I stupidly gave her her own cage away from the other female. Ever since she hasn't been digging and I think the move may have stressed her a little since she's been hiding. Should I...

Thanks Thanks for your responses. They have been very helpful. Does anyone know the life span and growth of a baby roach through adulthood?

thanks Thanks, I'll be sure to give them some dried food

Thanks Thanks for all of the information. I really appreciate the input.

THanks Thanks for the advice I'll be sure to try keeping the cage a bit more clean moving forward.

Mold Thanks for the heads up on the mold. What about mold kills them? Is it airborne spores or mold getting into the egg crate?

Thanks That's great advice. Only issue I have is that I thought leafy greens are bad because they bind with calcium which prevents it from being absorbed by the chameleons. Is that correct?

Thanks Thanks for the advice. What size wattage do you think would be best? At the moment it's in a closet so warmth level is probably around 65 at the moment. I don't want them in my room really since they creep me out when they move. I've been giving them some oranges and they are loving it!

Thanks Thanks, I put 1000 into a big blue tub, there are some that die in there, but sometimes they die in the cage as well. Seems a bit weird to me...

THanks So basically what are some more dried foods that they can be feed in bulk. I feel like feeding them wheat bix might get a bit expensive? Also is an open air container pretty necessary? What's the purpose of keeping the breeders separate from the feeders and feeding them separately? I...

Specifics If they aren't fruits and vegetables would you recommend oats? Maybe you can give me a few more specifics? :)

Thanks Thanks James I'll be sure to look into that. Where do you usually buy the food from?

Is it okay to keep 4 female young adults with 1 young adult male? They seem to be getting along pretty well and the cage is sizable.

Just bought 1,000 meal worms. Was wondering what the best set-up likely is to keep them alive and well feed? Is a little bark on the bottom of a bucket okay?

I have some Dubai Roaches and I have noticed that there are a couple that die every week or so. Obviously not good for the colony! was wondering if there is a superb set-up that I should be using and if an open lid 5 gallon bucket set-up might be better. Also looking to see if I should try some...

I have some crickets that are dying, usually after I put them in a cage it will vary from probably covering in too much calcium to getting stuck in the pot water collector. Just wondering what people's thoughts are for keeping them alive. What's the best food that I can buy in bulk to feed them...
