    Looking into my first chameleon

    Absorb info like a sponge. I read three books and found this site after I got my veiled. You can start picking things up slowly for the cham like I did and make sure you have the cage set before you bring it home/get it in the mail...unlike I did the other week at the reptile show. I kinda...

    Looking into my first chameleon

    Welcome to the forums! 1. I have seen it said to let the dripper run for only like 20 mins or so or else you will run the risk of flooding things out. I made some and let them go at a fairly slow rate and thank god the one potted plant has a catch bin, it was full and I had to empty that plant...

    What are some names of yalls chameleons?

    Male veiled - Fingolfin Male baby panther - Earendil I go for names from the Simirilion, or Lord of the Rings. My beardies I had were named after the swords from there. Anduril and Narsil.

    Cricket Breeding Bin?

    I also tried soil from my garden earlier this year before I planted or put anything but natural stuff in the soil. I kept it moist/damp but never had any hatch that I noticed. I did get some ecoearth since others had success with it, but it didn't work for me, I think they may have already...

    Cicada?

    I have been finding them a lot lately, even the soft, still curled up winged ones...if my veiled was full size he would be getting them...but they are pretty big around 2+ inches. At least hornworms that are that long are soft.

    Silkworms UK?

    The thought has crossed my mind, it has been cooler here of late, lower 80's and lower humidity, has been feeling like early fall...not like a few weeks ago, high 90's and like 70+% humidity. I also looked into hornworms as well, but found out how much of a mess they squirt all over. I did try...

    Chameleon People problems

    I hate that one, sometimes they are so easy to reach, or have to snake my arm around the pot....then there are those that are in between branches at the back or in the stones covering the potting soil. As for walking up to see where they are, Fingolfin is getting big now so not that easy for...

    Outdoor question

    I started a bit with the old enclosure, the wire mesh is about 1/2 inch and is smooth on the inside. I ran my fingers over it to see how rough it was. I cut a new piece of plywood for the bottom and tried to hose off some of the dirt but need to scrub it more now. I also have to replace the...

    Clarification question about feeding panthers

    I have also noticed, that if I take hornworms out and feed them lettuce to gut load them, they seem to die in a few days then, where when they have the chow they do fine. I have been wondering, the chow that comes with them, does that require further gutloading? I have used the bug burger chow...

    Clarification question about feeding panthers

    I was told that the calcium without d3 should be/can be used every feeding. Also, like was said, the hornworms/silkworms if you do dust them, die pretty quickly from the dusting I have noticed. Also, shouldn't you possibly increase the vitamin or calcium supplementation slightly when they are...

    How to keep baby supers, babies

    I have had a small batch of small supers for a while now, and they haven't grown a whole lot. I just threw in a chunk of bug burger food and it is now covered with bedding...so much for attempting to feed them.

    variety of food...

    I know you can order silkie chow, not sure if bug burger wet chow (mix the powder with boiling water and let sit) will work for silkies, I made a huge batch the other week and have it in the fridge. I used up the last batch on the last set of hornworms that blew thru what was in the cups and...

    Silkworms UK?

    Not sure if they will ship to UK, but I checked my order earlier today...and still in processing. Seems I am in the same boat as others. I wanted the silkies to feed my veiled since they will be a good size already. The horns I have are still fairly small for my baby panther yet, but in a few...

    Outdoor question

    How long should it be til you can start taking young chams outside? I do realize that I should get him used to my hand more and ability to get him out without freaking out, but I was wondering if there is a certain time, say like 4-5 months or so to take them out for natural sun. I still have...

    Finished Beauty!

    Wow is right! Makes the brief plans in my head and on paper look amateurish! Also you learned all that off of google too, impressive, most impressive. I used to build stuff when I was a lot younger, and wasn't really allowed to touch the power tools, now I don't really have a need to build...

    My Kammer cham died!!

    So sorry to hear this. It is hard to lose any pet, especially when you invest time and effort into them and even more at the end trying to make them better.
