Thank you for the replies from everyone offering to help! He's found a great new home :)

I'm moving from Boston to San Francisco in mid-August and sadly won't be able to take my male panther chameleon with me :(. I'm looking for find him a good home with someone local; he’s free to the right home. My priority is making sure I can find someone local who can care for him. He's about...

I second Arcadia bulbs and a T5 fixture from LightYourReptiles - excellent products and fantastic customer service! :)

Thanks for sharing! How long do they typically last after you get them? Do you store them at room temp or in the fridge?

My Dubia colony isn't huge (probably around 1,000 but I honestly haven't tried to count!). I have them in two separate containers; one is the breeding colony and the other is the feed-off/grow out bin. When I want to clean them and/or pull out nymphs from the breeding container, I start by...

Your set up looks great, much more organized than mine :LOL:! For my roaches I keep the egg crates stacked vertically so the waste falls to the bottom of the container and keeps the egg crate cleaner longer and makes cleaning the container nice and easy. I really do like the idea of the food...

I have the quad fixture as well, also mostly for the plants (which are doing great under it by the way). When the lights are coming on first thing in the morning and starting to shut down in the evening I do think it looks a bit too dim with only two bulbs on.

This is great, thank you! Looks like they have some options that could work very well.

Thanks Dave, that definitely sounds like another option I can look into!

Good thinking - I may try it inside the cage and see if it bothers him and if so, try it on the wall behind the cage.

That's actually a great idea, thanks! I've seen the wall murals but didn't think to use one of those. You're not the first person I've heard say that the realistic-looking backgrounds has caused some confusions with their chams. I wonder how common that is and whether it outweighs the benefit...

Congratulations, and welcome!

I'm sure the trip to Tennessee was stressful for him so I don't think it's too unusual that he's stopped eating. Hopefully once he settles in after a day or two he'll start eating again.

Those are cool, but it looks like they have a different site for US customers, and the cheapest option they have is still $290...quite a bit more than I had in mind! I thought about making my own background out of Great Stuff foam, etc., but I prefer the look of a rain forest/jungle photo...

I'm working on an upgraded cage for my male panther and I'm thinking of using a vinyl print of a Madagascar forest for the background. Does anyone have any suggestions on where I can get a photo where I won't be violating any copyrights? I'm happy to pay for a license if its affordable. The cage...

Bill from DragonStrand weighed in on a similar question a few months back. I thought his reply was spot-on as usual, so figured it might be of some help to you as well. Check out post #5 in this thread: https://www.chameleonforums.com/threads/rate-my-theoretical-setup.142065/#post-1209908

I've ordered from Coastal Silkworms before and always had good luck. Florida Fresh Silkworms was running a special for black friday so I gave them a try and was happy with them as well. I'd order from both again for sure.

My chameleon won't eat the larvae but loves the flies so I've had luck keeping them in a large tall deli cup in coco fiber substrate until they turn into flies. I give them small pieces of papaya or banana and haven't had any problems with the fruit getting gooey/sloppy. I do check the container...

That's what I was thinking as well, thanks!

It looks like its an expiration date and not a "best by" date - there's a "EXP09 2014" printed on the top seal of the bag. It was sealed until now when I just opened it. It looks just like my non-expired Bug Burger but does smell just ever so slightly different...not worse, just a tiny bit...
