    diy dripper/mister

    I am also wondering if some of my old 300-400gph reef pumps woulld work for a misting pump? Or I was thinking of a PVC loop on top the cage with holes drilled in it to rain down like is made for fish/frogs, but I guess that would not add the same amount of humidity as a mister for the amount of...

    Were are the Xanths coming from?

    Thats very interesting! I am glad I asked, so it seems it would be either Kenya or Hawaii were they are coming from then? I would think if Kenya is ranching then exportering there would be more species available? So Hawaii might be the more probable place there coming from then?

    I am thinking of making a free range for my WC female jackson, and her soon to come mate, as she is nose rubbing and has become very shy the last few days especialy if her cage is no covered on all sides, plus humidity has been just as much a PITA in a her glass cage as a mesh one, but I am...

    DE for chameleon?

    I was thinking of using this as a wormer as well on herps as it is all natural not a drug, it works well on mammals to get rid of fleas but it can dry out there fur/skin if used too much so I have wondered about it with reptiles if it may absorb liquid from the gut and cause them to deydarte?

I resplined the lid of an exo terra a long time ago due to rust, and even putting in regular window screen was a huge PITA I dont want to think of how hard putting in metal screen would be, I ruined the original metal screen...
