I also bought a piece of plastic canvas from Joann's and cut it to fit the pot, and then cut a hole out for the plant. That way, the bugs can't burrow into the soil, and if my cham decides to walk on it, she won't eat the dirt. I've never seen her walk on it, but you never know. Also, if she...

I can't understand a word of that! LOL! Could you word your question a bit better, maybe using some punctuation? I know you want some help, but it's difficult to give you advice without knowing what the question is. Thanks. Funny, somebody was just talking about this on the forums earlier.

Piko seems a but agitated today, hanging on the door mesh, wanting out. It is very hot and dry, (again!) and I can smell smoke, even though the fire is a long way away. Do you think she can sense this? I am handmisting more, and will increase the MistKing settings more this week, as it's so...

You are more excited about the box of fly pupae arriving in the mail, for your cham, than you are about your own birthday cards! Sad, but true!

I got a ready made flex watt tape mat from West coast roaches, because I didn't want to be bothered making one myself. It works great and came with a control setting. At first I put a piece of cardboard between the mat and the carpet just in case it melted the carpet, but it didn't. Then, I...

I did use bamboo for a short while, attached to the screen cage sides with drawing pins,,but it became swollen with all the misting, and split where the pins were, so i got rid of it. Since then, I've been using plastic vines, dowel rods, and that soft commercial vine that i've forgotten the...

I'm so sorry. What a handsome little man he was!

Thanks for the help. I ordered some butterworms from Elliotts and will get some flies from the mantid place as soon as I can figure out the confusing shipping information. Piko will soon be a happy camper, as she is BORED with the crickets, blase with her dubias, and indifferent to the...

My captive bred chameleon got a swollen foot within a month of getting her, last summer. I promptly took her to the vet, where he said it was most likely an injury from the mesh screen of her cage, and the most common injury he sees. He took her in the back and got some pus out of her foot...

Does anyone know of a local supplier where I can order both of these items? I can't seem to find one. I don't want the flies to hatch all at once which puts me off ordering from out of state. Also, if they do hatch, how do you feed them with honey and water? Mix the two and put it on a sponge...

Congratulations! Now that poor Mum can get some much needed rest. So can you hopefully before the next one starts!

I got this DVD for Xmas from my amazon wishlist. Last night I watched the Lizard part. It's wonderful! You get to see David Attenborough gently touching a panther cahm in it's own environment, a female of another species (I forget the name) giving birth to live babies in a tree after fending off...

if he is shedding (it's hard to see in that photo) then just make sure you are misting him enough. This will really help him get the skin off quicker. Mine is in the middle of a shed, and it's very dry where I live, so I am handmisting extra in between the MistKing automatic times.

I bought an 18 gallon black tote bin from the Container Store. I wanted a taller one then the one I had previously so that i didn't have to cut up the eggcrate to fit, but could just stack them on end. They fit great in this bin, without touching the lid. I drilled about 3 holes on each side...

I worked today, so I can't really tell. She's outside, and it's dark now, but I did peek at her, and her nose looked pretty peely! So, I'm hoping she's almost done. Extra mistings tomorrow i think, just to help her on her way.

They do look quite funny while they're shedding. Piko is done except for her tail, which I think she's working on today while I'm at work. Hopefully, her appetite and mood will be better by Saturday!

Lovely tree topper, but needs more glitter! Hope you're having a lovely Xmas. Chris

Thanks for replying. She's unzipping the rest as we speak! Feet today, maybe the tail later. Hope you're having a lovely Xmas!

Piko decided to shed today, just in time for Xmas! My question is, can chams sometimes shed just one part of their body? usually, she sheds all over, but this time, just the spine and sides. Maybe she's saving the rest for tomorrow? Although the rest of her body doesn't look lighter, as it...

What a cute boy! My little girl is enjoying outside today, as it has warmed up a bit, thank goodness. Who knew chameleons could sulk!
