I think you got clogged nozzles. Take a nozzle off and see if you have tons of flow. All these misters are just glorified reverse osmosis booster pumps with a lizard sticker slapped on them. And nozzles are universal and cheap...

The little foot isnt the problem. The little head trying to nom nom you is. You wrap in fluffy towel, and try to find a foot. The tegu isnt much fun either. You basically bend over and grab a foot, and then walk with the tegu while clipping. Lucky there is no nom noming involved. I only...

I am also part of the grow tent master race. But if its just for "transportation" for a few days. Just get a small light proof box with a few sticks stabbed through it (and air holes of course). He will just goto sleep and wake up in the new place.

Without very hard climbing branches (bamboo etc) they wont knock down the hypodermic needles at the end of the nails. https://www.chameleonforums.com/threads/claws.164268/#post-1419619

Normally you would want the pc fan pushing in from the bottom. Also this would help drop the humidity to ambient quicker. The slow drop in humidity shouldnt be a problem as long as you are not noticing mold growth. What you dont want is "wet cage" all day long. You want it to dry out at...

Yes they will look totally normal when the UVB drops to half or whatever. Its why i rotate them out into 6500k bulbs, they still look "daylight". The old "six months and replace" was before T5HO bulbs existed. Back before the financial crisis the T5 bulbs even at 12% were putting out 1/4th...

Yes both arcadia and zoomed say guaranteed a year. I have a meter and normally get 2-3 years before they become "half output". In which case they get retired to be used as 6500k bulbs, as i run 1 uvb and 1 normal in order to keep my plants alive. or in some cases the beardies get 12% bulbs...

Its yearly for the T5 unless you have a meter. and yes you want the 6%. If you cant find a 6%, or its holly expensive, you can also use the reptisun T5HO 5.0. I have ran both for 12 years, and my meter cant tell the difference. They are both made in germany 6 phosphor units that have a 1...

You want a wide variety of stick diameters. You can have logs(or cork bark flats) all the way to sticks so small they cant support the full weight of the cham (potho vines etc). You dont want "mostly the same size" or they can end up with "bird foot" where the feet adapt to only one diameter.

They will vastly increase cricket consumption as they become teenagers and go through their last growth spurt. You gotta notice they are doubling in weight every month or two. So imagine the last double, thats going to need alot of crickets. Once they are adults eating will drop off a cliff...

My free range is setup different. I have sticks going from the cage to the window. I also have plenty of sticks going down to the carpet. I keep the bedroom door shut 24/7, so no cats. If i did have cats living in the room, they would not be in the room during cham time. But you would be...

Well if LizardLurkin can do it so can I. Find the tegu hard mode. "If I cant see you, you cant see me"

If its a male you dont have to skip feedings. But once he is full grown and no longer a cricket vacuum, you do not want to feed small meals every day. At that point its larger meals a few times a week. But yea once they are teenage they will start acting weird and may even get aggressive...

If full grown or teenager, dont worry about it, they can go days and days. I have done fine since 1995 just feeding them on the weekends with a light snack mid week. U want hunger strikes, feed everyday. Or just yolo and when you leave throw a handful in and say god speed. Then the hunt begins.

TMVS Teenage Male Veiled Syndrome Congrats, sticking your hand in the cage is now a sport

Well technically thats what a few have done to me lol. Had a frilly, unless you are fast all you saw was was a thick stick with 1 eyeball looking at you.

They are pretty fast growing. Odds are the "bad batch" is also getting fed a different chow. The chow could get moldy and cause a die off. Hornworms are picky bastards. Some ate only hornworm chow, some ate silk worm chow. I had a few batches that would eat carrots. And i had a few batches...

Some love dogs. Some free rangers will grab onto dogs and unfortunately go on pony rides to other parts of the house. As long as there is no poofing you are fine. Mine has a 50 pound limit. If you are a beagle you are cool and can get right up in his grill, if the golden retriever comes over...

https://www.inaturalist.org/guide_taxa/736175 There are a few "hornworms" tomato and tobacco. Some have black feets, some do not, depending on the region. Black horns will have black feets Red horns will have green/white feets And then you have the fireweed hornworms of doooooooooom But...

They are just slanted hair removal tweezers. But can you show another pic? It could be he just has some nose salt, as Ehdee6 has eluded to.
