I also contacted the Executive Producer this morning. She promptly emailed me back and said that someone else would contact me on how to purchase the documentary.
Waiting for Geta to get back to me now.
Will he take food from your hand? I had to move 2 velieds yesterday. I used a stick and a feeder. I held the feeder far enough so that they had to walk on the stick to get it, I then put them, and the sticks, into the boxes.
I think it stressed ME out more than anything.
Check the classifieds on here often. People sometimes practically give supplies away. Maybe also consider building your own cage. It's really not that hard and is cheaper than buying from a retailer.
I agree with buying all of the equipment needed before even looking for a cham.
Setting up...
I know the feeling all too well. I started with 4 chameleons and very quickly acquired 2 more, then 7 more, and 5 more on the way! oh and one last week. :eek::eek::eek:
So 4+2+7+5= I'm crazy! :D I should be banned from all chameleon classified ads.

Is it really enough on it's own to supply females with enough calcium for egg laying?
I ask because I have been using it, and my female broke her leg due to using calcium from her bones for her eggs. Surely there are...
I am currently breeding or at least trying to breed:
Crickets, Silk Worms, Flightless Fruit Flies, Bean Beetles, Dubia Roaches, Hissing Roaches, Question Mark Roaches, and Green Banana Roaches.
Also~ Springtails and Isopods(for frogs)
I'm going to try mantids soon. Anything else I should try?
Yes, I have been thinking about all of that. The UVB is around 3 months old. I have only had the chameleon about that long.
I had been using Repashy Calcium Plus for dusting. Now I am going to switch back to rep-cal/herptivite. All of this talk about Repashy and nobody has mentioned how it will...
