Yeah don't boil them; I would think they would just fall apart. Bake em 250 for 30 min to an hour.

The point of baking is to drive out moisture and cure them so they don't rot and also kill microorganisms. Boiling may sterilize but it's not going to drive out moisture. Apple should be fine, as long as there is no lose bark your chams can accidentally ingest.

What model and accessories do you guys recommend for one (eventually two) panther cages?

I'll be trying my hand at Dubia when they come tomorrow! How do you all maintain proper temps? Heating pads are expensive!

Aren't parsonii incredibly difficult to breed let alone get to hatch in captivity? Something to do with cycling and humidity? Good luck chuck I hope they hatch for you. You'll have something very few people have if they do.

Much happier than with the nosy faly I had last week.

Heck yeah, I can't believe how big he is for his age.

Will do chuck, thanks again.

My new ambanja, he's a stunner. Huge and he's already eating and probably drinking though I haven't seen him. Thanks ChuckG, he's awesome.

Sometimes I build a mesh fence around a small tree or bush, works well for me, but I have a cage I originally built for my Cham inside but have since purchased an LLL unit. Not sure what I'll use this year.

Sphincter says what!

Agreed. My house is a bit cool, and harder for an incandescent to get the temp up. If you have a dedicated herp room and raise the temp you may not have an issue. Also you can get those same bulbs and any supply store for a couple bucks a piece.

I can't get much above 77 with a 60 watt bulb in my 4x2x2 cage. Had to go 75 watt reflecting incandescent.

You're really conveying serious dickery. No need for a tude, these people do their best to help you and your Cham and they are very polite. Even when confronted with rudeness and poor grammar. Take it down a notch kemosabe.

Or suspended by superconductive quantum levitating magnets! I'm looking at you scientists! Make it happen!

I prefer my chams shipped in bubble wrap jackets and hats inside a miniature one of those zorb things.

Indeed, some imperfect heat is better than none at all. It's like nature I suppose.

Some warmth is better than none. I use a 75 watt halogen basking bulb from zoo med that makes my temps proper. You may use an incandescent which may not get you to the exact right temp but it's better than none. Also go with a value pack of desired wattage bulbs that work for you, so that when...

You can order crickets online far cheaper than you can purchase them. Bait shops also sell crickets, however most pet stores/bait shops feed them junk and it's imperative that you properly gut load your crickets for at least 24/48hrs before feeding them to your Cham. There is info all over CF on...

It's a female. And she looks a little dehydrated.
