    Large horn worms-what to do?

    I mean, I would grow them as described in your instruction link. But, once they turned into moths, can I then just put them in with the Cham to eat. I don't really want eggs. If they were to lay some before eaten, then I will collect them. Otherwise, I would let them live in the chams cage until...

    Large horn worms-what to do?

    Thank you for the link. Very informative and easy to follow. Now, I don't really want to raise hornworms. So, can I put the moths in the chams cage and let him eat them as he pleases until they are gone or dead?

    Large horn worms-what to do?

    Thanks for the info. I tried looking it up, but didn't really find much info. What kind of soil do you use? Would coconut coir be okay? How deep does it have to be? Can I keep the container in the bottom of the chams cage?

    Large horn worms-what to do?

    I have some really big horn worms. My chameleon didn't go for them as much as I thought he would. Can he still eat them or would they be too large. He is a male veiled 1 yr. old in February. The worms are almost or are full grown. What can I do with them if he can't eat them? Thanks

    exo terra monsoon/ zoo med repti rain/ mist king ?

    I have the monsoon, don't get it. I found out about it after i bought it and now stuck with it. I even tried to take it back with no luck. It sucks. Less then a week old, using distiller water, and one nozzle was clogged. Can't wait for it to die, so I can replace it.

    One more heat ? Sorry

    He will be 1year sometime in feb. I didn't get the exact day. Anyway, I have seen him angle himself. Sometimes he doesn't. I was wondering because he had just gone through a head shed. The top of his casque is still whiteish looking, like peeling skin, but hard to tell if it is skin. I was...

    One more heat ? Sorry

    I posted about a week ago about my Cham and heat. I changed things and got the heat corrected. Now, my question is. When my Cham is basking. Should the top of his back or the casque be the hottest spot? My chams back is mid 80's but the top of his casque is 100. He doesn't sit with his mouth...

    Best feeding tongs-help

    Okay, I bought a pair of feeding tongs, metal, for feeding reptiles. They suck! The worms can wiggle out of them and the crickets, well I can pick them up and just as quickly they are out of them. Is it me or are there better feeding tongs out there? I have lost two crickets and geez, I...
