Ahh...drainage. Well...I found a quick and easy way to contain water in those cages with the green pvc flat bottom. Simply go to the hardware store and pickup some L shaped corner trim and a square piece of small dowl. Cut the pieces to line the sides of the bottom piece on the edges and use...
I would love a pair of jacksons. That was my first chameleon back in the 70's. Got a pair of them from my parents for getting straight A's on my report card.:D
Can you ship me a few when it warms up? It's 10 degrees outside...so I have to wait.
Home Depot...it's a no brainer. Just picked up two yesterday and have two more coming tomorrow at the local shop here near me. Ficus are great looking houseplants and my chameleon loves his.
There is no comparison. Geckos are boring. Chameleons are the most facinating of all reptiles. And...they are easy to keep. The only thing with chameleons is you can't up and go on vacation without a qualified babysitter....
Tie Wraps aka Zip Ties. They work good. Put them in corners...loop your vines so they don't come loose and then head down or across and tie wrap them to another area. Once you have some base ties, you can wrap other vines to your anchored ones.
Are you serious? I can sell a mantis? We get giant...and I mean giant green and sometimes odd colored mantis's here at my house...and sometimes really long stick bugs. Once in a while I'll find a bird sized moth outside near my lights...and these suckers are enormous. I'll look for the pics...
It was about midnight and I was writing on the computer. I got up to get some tea and as I walked past Dino's cage, he fell off his bed and hit the floor of the cage with a big thump.
I looked at him and he was awake but not moving...then slowly...very slowly he started up the screen...but...
If you go into law enforcement with a masters degree, you will probably stay there for a while...promoting up at the command staff level in a few years...if you are cut out for the job.
Have you seen that show on TV called "The Academy"? One of my classmates in my academy is now a DI in...
I just sold (last month) my legal business of 12 years doing private investigations, skip tracing, court services and process service. Now I'm taking some time off and writing a book. Before that I was a cop in SoCal.
Tell your lady friend at your work that iguanas don't go into hybernation and even if it did, force feeding any reptile while it's in hybernation is contradictory. Hybernation is the slowing down of an animal's systems so it can go without eating...that's the whole point.
Since iguanas live in...
1. 5.0...don't use the 10's.
2. My cage was custom build with $500 dollars in materials, plywood, electrical built onto the cage with dimmer for heating element, sliding glass window, stick tile (don't use)...lighting, wheels for moving, etc. Big investment...for a lizard that grew to over 6...
It would take me an entire book of chapters to explain and describe the correct way to keep iguanas....
I would consider them "expert" level. Expert level for work involved and dependant nature for daily care. They have special diets and supplement needs, they are very messy and require...
The smart girl in Harry Potter has a veiled chameleon for her pet. They showed a real one and then in another shot it was a fake one sitting there.
Guess they couldn't get him to sit still for the filming. :)
Chameleons are smarter than people...they don't have to pay insurance or go to work. They lounge around in trees all day taking in the sun and finding snacks.
Wish I could do that.
By the way... from present day all the way back a million years...humans wake up, poop, procreate, hide, hunt...
