new guy just arrived, and i've seen him eat and drink so at least the stress hasnt taken his appetite away. i'll get pictures up in the next few days after he's had some time to adjust.
...any tips for first day/week acclimation. he should be arriving about lunch time or earlier so i'll only have an hour or so to observe him (from afar btw) before i have to go back to work. should i go ahead and put a few crickets in there to let him eat? normally i wouldnt do that with a...
i hate to piggy back on a thread, but this is related. Would it hurt to have a towel draped over the back of the enclosure during misting and or long term? It'd certainly help with keeping the humidity up. The cage is open screen on 3 sides so i'd think there would still be plenty of airflow...
i dont know if it's been said yet but that doesnt sound high at all. The price you quoted sounds like a medium sized box next day to a residence to me. UPS has quite a few factors that go into the cost of shipping, the first being whether or not it is a business account. Weight and size of...
metal screen cage. i can't ever remember which dimension goes first. the height is 48". if the height is going to remain the same as a square cage (24x24x48) i can't see how enlarging the footprint will hurt, assuming he's able to find food. (i plan on cup training). the cage was built to fit...
i'm good, i have a 18x36x48 in waiting for when i need it. i could seriously see a case of chamaeleonphilia developing in the future. thanks for the warning
I had been looking a Sambava, something with a lot of red in it. I found some 3month predominantly red bar ambilobes for sale so i think that's the route i'm going to go. If all goes well, i'm sure this won't be my only one.
oh yeah i know about the size. i actually have a 18"x36"x48" inch...
ok, I wanted a panther chameleon about 3 years ago only to find out that i didnt have the resources nor the room to have one. Fast Foward to the fall and i get my own place, and ended up getting a juvie set up for christmas, went ahead and bought an adult cage so that i could be setting it up...
honestly i wasnt expecting much in response being that i started this thread the night before the show. this guy said that he wasnt the owner, but he was really helpful none the less. yeah i can't wait for the daytona show.
hmm, no takers i guess. anyway it was a pretty good show with what seemed like a great turnout. i'd been to some gila production shows, but never to a repticon so i didnt know how they'd compare but this one was pretty good.
also, i'd like to thank chris (i think that's what his name tag...
anyone going? i think i read where fl chams was going to be there, but i dont know if there will be any other cham dealers there.
It's been a long time since i've posted. still no cham yet, but i've had a lot going on b/t a wedding and moving into a new house. either way i'm going to get...
I'm looking someone i can get in contact with that may have a baby male sambava(preferably 3-4 month range). I'm located in NC and may be willing to drive to an adjacent state, but would prefer shipping.
bottom
they make trays that fit in the bottom of the reptariums. If you have one then, that should be enough. If you still want something more in the bottom then i'd think that most on here would say paper towels if any at all.
ease up on your dad. more than likely, he just didnt know any better. the bulb you are an infared heat bulb, mainly used for reptiles to provide heat without the being in their visible spectrum at night or during the day. I know that zoo-med has an actual picture of a chameleon on their...
not as exciting as actually getting a cham, but i think i'm getting a cage with all the fixings. It's a small, 20 x 18 x 12, for a baby, but it'll give me enough time to customize and set up a larger one for when the cham grows up. My plan is to set up the small one, run it for at least a week...
