Cowchick.... don't give up. I've had reptiles at the brink of death and they recovered. I have a very sick snake that the vet said wouldn't last a few days...they just gave me the syr/meds and wished me good luck. He was 5 inches long, infected with mites and dehydrated to near death. 14...
My first chameleon were... two Jackson's Chameleons in 1979 my mom bought me from a place called Silent World in Los Angeles. They were expensive in those days and probably wild caught.
My parents told me that if I got straight A's in school, they'd buy them for me. I worked very hard and got...
Does anyone here use a warm/room temp humidifier directed into the enclosure? I used 3' PVC and drilled holes so it "mists" from above 3 times a day for 30mins to 1hr. Once it stops there are droplets for drinking. I also have a little dripper going. Since it's an all screen cage...it will...
What have you been putting in that bowl lately? LOL
My iguana was trained to poop in his cat box...reptiles are smart critters...he could be telling you something! :)
Like...were's the good chow? I'll show you! hehe
My chameleon is an Ambilobe.
I think these plants will be ok... only problem is the broad leaf, blocking some of my UV from the top. I may have to take one out and open it up a bit.
Did you guys notice my humidifier pvc on the side? I'm trying to decide on whether I should fancy it up...
I am NOT a green thumb....my mother is the green thumb and I didn't inherit that gene. I am however....good at planting trees in my yard...running drip line over my acres...and fixing/installing sprinklers....houseplants are a different story. :)
Thanks for the help.
25 Feet!? Holy Cow! LOL
I looked it up at the University of Davis plant list website....it has the same toxicity as the benjamina...rated at a "4". 1 being the most toxic..and 5 being the least.
The pots say "benjamina"...but if they are "fiddles", then they are lyrata I guess.
Thanks all.
It says ficus right on the pots...on all 3...and one had a tag that said "little fiddle" ficus benjamina. The labels on the pots are all indicating that they are ficus plants.
I picked up three "little fiddles" from the hardware store. The tag says they are Ficus Benjaminas...however they have broad larger teardrop leaves.
They don't look like the traditional ficus benjamina.
Anyone know about this particular plant and if it's safe?
Thanks
P.S. It's not in the...
I am using a blue humidifier (room temp mist) with a 3" pvc up to the cage and to 45's to direct it in.
Those ultra sound foggers seem like more of a hassle.
