Just be careful when you take him outside to free range. They move fast when they want to. I am just heartsick for the member that just lost her cham outside. And George is really beautiful.

Congrats Sang! Can't wait to see the pics : )

Yeah Bunny, I agree. The woman that took my siamese cat found her walking out in back of my house (she had gotten out by accident) This woman worked at a small sandwich shop a few doors away. But rather than respond to the posters I had everywhere in my neighborhood, she TOOK MY CAT HOME, and...

You're welcome We should know the winners soon : )

If I had to pick one more it would be Zippy smelling flowers by Miss Lilly A really lovely cham and great composition

It just occurred to me. I have never had spider problems in my house, EVER. I thought it was just the crickets etc. but then today I looked around and realized where are the ladybugs? Not a ladybug in sight. Every spring for the 28 years I have lived here there have been lots of lady bugs...

These must only be sold in Europe. I looked on Amazon and could not find them. Perhaps under another name? They look interesting.

OMG Jim, They look soooo much alike. Here's Memphis. Bane sure turned out to be a looker ( But I always knew he would ) Memphis peeking out of greenery Memphis takes his own shower

This suggestion makes so much sense. Please do claim your animal as valued at more than $500 This is not a fib as a grown colorful cham of breeding age can easily be sold for that amount. Also seems strange as another poster mentioned that someone would CLOSE the cage door after they stole him...

Amber, You get the prize. I bake a lot so i just happened to have all natural concentrated peppermint essence. You would use this for candy making etc. I mixed this in a clean spray bottle with some water and shook it till it turned milky .( I added a fair amount of the peppermint oil to the...

I am soooo sorry to hear this. I know how bad it must feel to lose him. ? Does anyone else know you keep chams and more importantly do you do the "pick your girl up from school and leave your cham unattended outside on a regular basis? One last thing, I know when I am outside with my group I...

Pigglet, If I release mantids in my basement will they survive on spiders for a while? I found out that my basement is where the spiders are coming from. Lots of web in the rafters. Yuk! We don't use it much except in the winter for a coal stove. If they will be OK down there I can then take...

Absolutely spectacular photos Craig! I don't own this genus but I admire those that do. Thanks so much for posting the pics. Lisa

I read this the other day when I posted about Army worms as food. ( Note: don't feed anything that has been eating tomato plants, it will be poison) Excellent Job! Highly recmd. for any who wish to raise a hornworm colony. : ) Just gave you some rep for this Pig : )

Or those ultrasonic/electromagnetic pest controllers? These plug into the wall outlets

Thanks Guys Sounds like lots have had this issue. I think they are drawn by the free food. (Escaped crickets/Fruit flies) However, most are too small to be a food source and seems my chams ignore them. ( I did find a small web in the cage once, he just ignored it. ) Any luck with the natural...

Does anyone know how to get rid of house spiders without harmful chemicals.? I am seeing more and more around the chams room and I can't spray bug killers. I clean my cham cages all the time, even picking up dropping as soon as I see them. All the cages have absorbent puppy pads in the bottom...

Way to go Steve!

Thanks olympia, I only found a blog by Pigglet but a good one on raising feeders including hornworms. I also looked into the great lakes hornworm site and it states very clearly DO NOT FEED WORMS THAT HAVE EATEN TOMATO PLANTS. So right on the money with your post. Did not find anything on...
