How does everyone store their phoenix worms? We are having issues with keeping them stored moist enough for the worms to thrive and getting mite infestations from the dirt they are in....keep having to throw them out. Any advice or is this just the nature of the beast?

When I got Stuart the breeder said that after one year to decrease the amount of supplementing his feeders and relying more on gut load. I have always tried to gut load his feeders as best I can, they eat better than we do. But I feel weird decreasing supplements....wanted everyone's take. As a...

This is a Large Atrium dragon strand cage (45.25″ wide x 44.25″ high x 22.25″ deep) and I have currently a 12% arcadia bulb in the quad fixture from light your reptiles right now. It is on legs about 5.5 inches above the screen....so about 12 inches away from his highest branches. I have tried...

I see here that quite a few people make a blended mash of gut load foods. I had been just chopping up fresh veggies and putting them in with my bugs in bits.... Is it better to make a mash instead? I am assuming that maybe this would make it easier for the bugs to eat?

We just added some things to Stu's cage and are wanting opinions....he is an 11 month old ambilobe. He is in a large dragon strand atrium clear side. Lighting is the 36"quad with a 12% arcadia bulb. I have the light on the extended legs so it does not sit right on the screen and also much...

This is Stuart at 3 months, 8 months and the bottom is his Dad, I'm hoping he will turn out as brilliant.... ....can I see some of your panthers' progress pics please? Post parents too if you have them.

Lil' Stu is about 9 months old and it was time.....wanted to share because I have always loved looking at everyone else set ups for ideas and such... My only concern was the 12% arcadia quad lamp (shout out to Todd Goode, always helpful!) and not enough foliage at top yet....so we propped it up...

Hello- As a new owner can someone with proper cham experience post a photo of the amount they use to dust any supplement on feeders? Maybe even a photo of actual feeders dusted? I have searched and found nothing (actually found an old thread but the photos were no longer working) and the...

About what age did you upgrade your cage size to something larger? I know the Dragon Strand website says it can accommodate an adult but it seems small for an adult....trying to gauge how long we will have before we upgrade to the large atrium. Stuart is only about 4 months right now.

About a week ago I introduced Silkworms as one of 3 staple (crickets and dubia being the other two) to our Stuart's diet. He off an on developed some loose stools which I attributed to the worms but to be safe, off to the vet he went on Saturday. His fecal did in fact show an abundance of...

I am trying to unload my whole set-up for local pickup only. It's just way too much for our one Cham.....and these guys are getting it on and making babies at a pretty good rate. Three tier bin (top bin beetles, middle bin babies, bottom bin adult worms) The top bin has holes in the bottom so...

Have you ever had anything crawl up the pole and onto whatever it is hanging from? I was about to put roaches in it this morning when it hit me that they could possibly jail break it out of there before my slow eater Stuart would get to them. I have it on an "S" hook hanging off a...

i just saw this after I posted earlier. I cannot tell you how excited I was to see him do this for the first time. WIN!

So we just got our system and decided that we prefer the seconds timer instead of the repeat cycle timer we ordered. I contacted Marty at Mistking and he suggested rather than to pay shipping to send it back to him in Canada I should try and sell it here. It is brand new; I literally plugged it...

Any chance I can find anybody in the Houston metro area to buy some adult dubias off of? I am trying to get my colony going...and it is way to hot to ship right now. I am having no luck finding any adults (particularly males)in stores:-( Please pm me if you are in Houston and have some you can sell.

We are planning on getting the medium atrium dragon strand for our juvenile male panther in a couple of months....I would really like to get the clear side atrium if possible because we like the idea of a clear front view. My question is in terms of ventilation...should I get the all screen...

I had read somewhere that a good starter cage for a juvenile up to about 6 or 9 months old was a 16x16x20 under the theory that too big a cage would make it hard for them to hunt if they were small. Now I am reading and reading and thinking that I may have gotten too small a starter cage. I plan...

Total noob here~ I am super excited about getting my first chameleon ever and have decided on a Panther. The local reptile shop that I plan on getting him from says that I can get on a list for either a baby or a juvenile.....my question is...is it better to get an older one? I am in the super...
