So funny I was thinking about you guys too was going to send the same pictures today to you but now that you've seen them no need! He's doing great, seems to get brighter by the day, I'll send you more of him when he's just hanging out also!

also.. Do you have any branches up by the basking spot? If so I don't think you need the plant to go all the way up under the basking spot. My Chams have some branches about 8-10 inches from the lights at the top of the cage, the plants start right about there. When mine bask they usually...

Can you hang a plant from the top of your cage? In one cage I have a ficus hanging from the top which seems to be my Cham's favorite plant he climbs all over it and the branches are sturdy enough. I just drilled two holes in the plant, put some twine through and hung it from the top. I...

The fixture itself is just over 24"and the bulb itself is exactly 24" (the cage is a tad over 2' across so the light and bulb literally go from one end all the way to the other. I'm just worried he won't be able to escape it? I don't have a screen top, it's wire 1/2" wire mesh so a most of the...

foil behind bulb?? And yet another question someone mentioned putting foil behind the uvb bulb to reflect the rays downward...do I need to secure the foil to the fixture so that it doesn't touch the backside of the bulb itself or does it matter?

Okay so after asking around I founf majority to recommend 5.0 uvb. I got a reptisun 5.0. My cage is 2x2x4 and I ordered the 24" bulb and now I'm worried that's too big?? Should I place that on one side, diagonal across the cage, or straight down the middle?? I've had a world of trouble...

Thanks everyone, I think he's stunning also :D

I started a colony and already I have tons of little babies roaming around..how do you all go about separating Dubia according to sizes so that you can keep your breeding adults in a bin and maybe take the babies out and into their own bin.. or does everyone just leave them all mixed in?? What...

Well his favorite thing ever is being in the shower so I guess he's a fish at heart!

ooh James I didn't think of this.. What about if there is no way for them to ingest the soil? In all my plants I have a circle of newspaper on top of the soil and some rocks on top of that. Safe or still a no go? I also cup feed so the feeders do not come in contact with plant basins...

oh shoot obviously that second picture is NOT him calmed down lol! I clicked the wrong one!

Here is Houdini all mad at the camera...he HATES if I zoom and the lens moves, so here he is all mad! The second is when he calmed down a bit. He's about 8 months old and is the son of Tiki Tiki's Mako..he has such a personality he acts so "how dare you take a picture, how dare you take me out...

Fish poo! Seriously! Do you know anyone with a fish tank? Ask them to give you a jug of fish tank water next time they vacuum it out! I use fish tank water (after you stir it around when cleaning and all the gross stuff is floating in the water) to feed my plants and it works GREAT, is...

Thanks everyone so far so good, doing 2 minute intervals hourly 8am-3pm and I hand mist a few times in the late afternoon if needed:) I've got the humidity gauge set up in the middle of the cage is that good? Should it be somewhere that stays more dry so I can tell more of the relative humidity...

Show your female to your male, if she acts normal, stays light coloring and doesn't turn black with spots, hiss and gape then you can put her in his cage, she should begin to walk away and he will follow her and do his thing. make sure neither acts super aggressive to the other when you show...

I know they are on the same list and they look pretty cool..I saw the ones that have the leaves curled "rope" hoya and though maybe the shape of the leaves will allow for water to drip on and stay in the pockets thus helping with humidity :) I'm trying to find out if they do well in the...

Okay so I just got a mist king and I have 2 Chameleons. I'm figuring 2 minute intervals a few times a day (3-4?) I'm wondering how big of a reservoir I'm going to need in order to do this. Any ideas? Also, do those intervals sound okay? Like 2 minutes on at 8am, 11am, 2pm, 4pm? Maybe even...

Add the vine it's be a good addition. I'm not sure how much they charge for it made but if you make your own you're talking a few bucks :) My female Cham will walk along the vine sipping the droplets, they leak out slowly so the jug lasts throughout the day, you can position the holes over...

Hi there I made something like this, but just wrapped it around a real plant in their cage, just normal tubing connected to the dripper jug and wrap it around whatever branch vine or plant in the cage and you're set! SUPER cheap but I wouldn't replace the mister just because the mister adds to...

7-10 dollars I believe for a pound of crystals which will last a LONG long time for a colony starting out!
