True, but I would assume there are still general ranges that one should be within to be considered healthy or growing at a somewhat normal rate. Obviously variations would be expected, and one outside of the range would not necessarily be deemed "unhealthy". It would still be nice to see what...

Yes - let's get this going. I'm no expert, but I feel there is enough knowledge on this forum to get something like this created. Although I would be very surprised if it didn't already exist....I'm going to keep searching.

Posting in here to subscribe. I'm curious about this as well.

Thanks everyone! I love his cuteness as well :)

I really like using these type of Curly Willow Branches from a craft store - but make sure you get unpainted, unvarnished, natural, etc. These PVC pipe cutters from Home Depot make quick work of cutting the branches to the appropriate size, and make it easy to get the angle of cut you...

Thanks! For some additional information, here are the corner protectors I used: I would also recommend getting these PVC cutters. They can be used to cut the PVC pipe (in seconds!), as well as the plastic corners, and even branches, vines, etc. in a snap:

I started another thread on this, but here is a link to a video showing my drainage system: https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B63-uU_RMoYJZXcxLVZYT2ZUVEk/edit?usp=sharing And a link to the thread: https://www.chameleonforums.com/video-drainage-system-103347/

It actually has a sink-top, so the water flows down into the sink, and through the drain hole in the sink - which is what the PVC pipe i attached to. I used 1" PVC pipe, attached to a 1" PVC connector, The 1" PVC connector actually has an outside diameter of about 1.25", which fit snugly into...

I have the MistKing and love it so far - no complaints.

If anyone is curious, I have uploaded a video of my drainage system. Is fairly simple. I took corrugated plastic for the base, drilled holes in the areas that the plants sit (they weight the floor down, creating a slope). I took clear plastic corner protectors (the kind you place on dry wall to...

Thanks! I agree, they are so cute. I can't wait to see him grow, but at the same time I love seeing him as a cute little guy :)

Here's a quick photo of my 4 month-old veiled, Abe. It seems that on cloudy days he likes to settle in for bed about an hour before lights out, which gives me a chance to snap a pic of him snoozing. (Side note: sorry for the graininess, he was in the shade so I was shooting at ISO 6400!)

That's interesting. I knew that chams did not need super warm temps, but that is definitely lower than I expected. I initially had a standard 60W household incandescent, and it was giving me temps in the upper 70s - I'll probably switch back to that now. Also, I added a cup feeder this...

Male veiled named "Abe"!

Thanks for all of the feedback! I will move a vine or two a bit closer tomorrow morning (don't want to wake him! :)). As far as humidity goes, I do have a digital hygrometer. It seems that the humidity ranges from 40% RH on the low end, to about 60% or so soon after the MistKing goes off. I read...

Hi Everyone, I am new to the forum, and just received my little guy (Abe, a 4 month old veiled) from FL Chams. Anyway, I was hoping that you could provide some feedback on his enclosure. I've done a good amount of research, and I believe it is good set up, but it's always good to get...

Is there any sort of consensus on whether you need a dripper AND MistKing? I'd like to just go with the MistKing if possible - but I do realize they are different forms of water delivery. Does anyone know if the MistKing drips enough (not using the zip drip) to function as a quasi-drip system...

Thanks for the warm welcome. As a fellow Ohioan, is there anything Ohio-specific I should know regarding the cham-keeping hobby? As in, are there any good trade shows, stores, breeders, etc. that are good for cham-owners?

Update Quick update - I ended up hearing back from FL Chams via email - my little guy will ship today and arrive tomorrow. I think I was being a bit overly concerned, but with the cold Ohio winter, I wanted to make sure I was there for him when he arrived! I'll have photos to post when he...

Thanks for the response. Did you receive a confirmation email from FL Chams upon placing your order? Or just the PayPal confirmation?
