    Moving a heavy viv..

    Sorry I did mean CM hahaha oh dear. One of those days. I have absolutely no where to get plywood or no where to store it once it's finished with, if I could get it. I was thinking of getting my partner to dead lift it with me straight on top of the new stand and then drag the whole unit into...

    Moving a heavy viv..

    Sorry, I should add I'd be moving him into my bedroom which has a lot less human traffic as well.

    Moving a heavy viv..

    Hey guys, So I have a 90cmx45cmx90cm glass vivarium. I had to temporarily have the vivarium on a low coffee table in my living room. I now have got a much higher platform to put it on. The only issue I am having is that it is a naturalistic viv and has clay balls, soil and live plants. Making it...

    It's the biggest viv I could actually get though? Extra large, extra tall? I've certainly seen adult chams in smaller enclosures. Unfortunately his viv needs to remain where it is since it is so big. I actively avoid walking in front of it and tend to him on my knees most of the time so I seem...

    I did not know that.. the guy I got him from made out like it was a good thing for them to fire up :/ I won't handle him for a couple of weeks. He doesn't seem a social guy. He's also back to not eating. Which is worrying me but I am also wondering if he is going to shed soon. I read when...

    Good news, he fed today. I used an old Greek yogurt pot and he ate around 9 crickets and a locust. He let me handle him and he started to fire up, not quite his usual bright white and red but I'll take it.

    It has like a golden glow, it's not super bright so I'm not sure if it will work but it's certainly worth a try to pull him towards the heat. I appreciate your input, think you.

    That makes sense. Would a normal home lamp shining above the heat lamp do the trick do you think to draw him up to the heat?

    Yeah, I've read a lot that ceramic was the best but now I've seen a bunch of posts about incandescent, I'll be sticking withto ceramic for now but maybe after more research, I'll see.

    Interesting. I might look into that in the future when he is properly settled I don't want to start moving stuff around at the moment. Although in winter my apartment drops extremely cold as it's high ceiling and doesn't seem to hold heat at all. Thanks for the information.

    I'm surprised they emit enough heat? Especially to keep the whole viv at the right temp.

    Hiya, what is the difference between ceramic and incandescent? I am going to be making him a feeding cup very soon.

    I've misted his viv around 4 times in the last 16 hours but that's because it's a new set up and I want to make sure it's all good and soaked. I'll mist again tonight one more time and carry on from tomorrow morning twice (or three depending), once in the morning and again in the evening for one...

    Hiya guys, new owner here so just a bit worried and looking for advice or help. I got my cham yesterday, he's a masoala panther. I had to travel for a couple of hours with him and left him in the box whilst I set up his viv, which is huge compared to the one in pet store. He's been in the...
