No, mine aren't eating the peppers either, its original purpose was for a water supply but not seen them anywhere near it! Got some apple in there now. That's not substrate as such, it's bug grub :) the light is just there so we can see in the cupboard.

Got a small heat mat at the back. Any obvious improvements that should/could be made?

Hi again - I'm assuming this is how they normally look when shedding. He's using the plastic plants to exfoliate :)

Dubias arrived today. There a bit too big for feeding our little George, so I guess it's straight into cultivating them. Theres even a few adult females in there, i was expecting medium nymphs but some are an inch long. Done loads of googling so am pretty sure I will be ok. I'll put a pic up of...

Thinking about providing a longer lasting source of water for my bugs. This "Bug Gel" stuff is just a Polyacrylamide Copolymer isn't it? The stuff inside nappies (diapers) and such. So if was to charge it with some very dilute calcium chloride and RODI, the bugs could get a calcium load from...

Does anyone know the BEST way to look after Dubias, for feeders?

Thanks. Thought that may be the case. I was just trying to simplify things. I'll keep them seperate, just in case ;)

I've got some 3/4 inch dubias on there way to me. I may attempt to breed them at a later date but for now these are just going to be feeders. Am I able to keep them with the crickets in my cricket keeper? Thanks in advance :)

Are you sure he's not growing? Have you got pics of "then" and "now". Animals tend to grow when your not looking :)

I'm new to this also. My new Cham was doing this daily. I raised the basking bulb an inch or two and he stopped immediately :)

I've just ordered a "Terra fan" set to provide more circulation, after all, safe is better than sorry. It comes with two variable speed fans apparently. Should I have 1 suck and one blow? And what positioning would you recommend (ie one at the front, one at the back or perhaps one on the left...

Yes, you can trigger it whenever you want.

:) Probes are about 2/3rds way up the enclosure. Your right about the glass doors also. Cheers

I think the ventilation is ok, but I will stay on "mould watch", especially as I have increased the amount of misting. Thanks :)

Installed a drain. Now misting is 30 seconds, every hour from 8 till 2.

The enclosure has a lot to do with some great advice from Kate, as you can see here; https://www.chameleonforums.com/showpost.php?p=1041171 He's eating like a pig, and I'm thinking of getting some hoppers this week. I used to breed them for a tarantula many years ago so I thought about giving...

Thanks for the comments everyone :)

Thank you. It's bloody strange being new, and all advice is extremely welcome. This little beauty is gonna be part of my family.

So, he looks ok then?
