Its a grasshopper. It must be eaten!

*Sigh* I think Mark Twain said it best: "Never argue with a fool, onlookers may not be able to tell the difference..."

I agree, there should be a balance. Screening shouldn't come off as an interrogation. We need more people in the hobby and by scaring off potential buyers... this hobby will stay occult. Most people have no idea about chameleon care. Its a small group of people that keep reptiles as pets. This...

It is arrogant because you don't know me, you have no insight on my level of experience. This forum is here so that people could offer constructive advice and personal opinion. I could care less about how much you charge buyers or how much you pay, that is your problem. I do however have an...

Arrogant much? Suspect all you want, $150 is way too much for a veiled, spend all you want though, stimulate the economy buddy.

I dont dust all the crickets, just the first three of the day. I re-use the Zip-Lock bag that has about a 1/2 teaspoon amount of dust in it. I drop the first three sacrifices in and shake'n'bake the heck out of 'em until they are nicely breaded. Then I drop into the enclosure and let the hunger...

Haha ACE still exists? All the one around here closed up...There is a Lowes or a HomeDepot on every other corner though. Sadly, they dont sell crickets.

You know, I have never seen one in any Big Box Store around here. Your best bet would be Amazon. Check it: http://www.amazon.com/Hagen-Terra-Reptile-Cricket-Feeder/dp/B0002AR4CU/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1373582189&sr=8-1&keywords=cricket+feeder Its not exactly to hang up but it could be...

Warm soak, or warm mist on his body should help him out.

Hmm... If you are in the county on private land its perfectly legal to discharge a firearm against pests and varmints. IE: blast them varmints! Excuse me, I lived on a ranch and that's just how we do it in the country outside of city limits. To each his own though, there are traps that they sell...

???....?? -_- Uh... PETA? Is that you?

$150? I think that's way too much for a Veiled. Seriously, just because you pay more doesn't always make it better... I think mills are terrible, but at the same time I sometimes feel that breeders charge insane amounts for chameleons. I wish they could all have a standard price, hehe, and I...

Yo. Your setup sounds good. Keep it up and add more to your collection...chams are a really good hobby pet. Gotta-catch-em-all!

There was a thread on fungus and things a while ago...cant find it now though...probably because Im too lazy to look, haha. Anyways, just pull out the fungus affected area and scrub away. Easy, can be done in like 10 min. and would probably solve the issue for a while. The humid conditions that...

Just get an Exo-Terra terrarium. Those are good noob starter enclosures. Easy to maintain moisture, water-proof, pretty sturdy, decent ventilation, plus they look good. I would especially recommend one for a Jackson. Just wanted to add that glass is not a health risk like some make it out to...

Dude, get yourself a .410 gauge and have fun. Either that or get a snake-bat and swing away. Nothing much else you can do besides paying for an exterminator to temporarily alleviate the problem.

Maybe for a large family of chameleons, haha. I use about 1 gallon/week for 1 cham. 3-5 gallons a day would be for like 20+ chameleons. Even with a dripper, mister, and fogger, you wouldn't even use half a gallon in one day.

Good to hear! Sometimes leaving an animal to rest and heal is best, as evidenced by your experience.

Seems to me that you are not meeting the basic habitat needs. 1. You need to get a UVB light. A 5.0 UVB or equivalent. 2. You need to keep a humidity gauge. Any type is fine but you should maintain a constant 60-70%. 3. The enclosure might be too small, but it depends on your chameleon...

I have used the ice cube method before and its alright. You need to consider that it is a single drop of water that might be at 10-15F when it drops and hits a leaf. With an ambient of 70-75F in most cases, the drop quickly hits ambient temp. I have used ice cubes with no ill-effects. Still, a...
