Hey all, I was just wondering specifically what kind of Jacksons Chameleon this is? This is not my picture but boy is it pretty! Normally I think they're kind of bland with just the green coloring, but if I could find one like this I'd be in heaven! Also, if you know off the top of your head...
Sorry for the vauge title but I'm building bug bins at this very second and I need to know if crickets and roaches can climb duct tape!!!
Please and thank you!
I know, substrate is bad...but my goodness (and no offense to anyone!) I can not for the life of me get past having POTS just sitting in an enclosure! Its so unnatural looking. =(
I would much rather do the whole bottom in dirt, plant the plants normally, and just completely cover the bottom...
I feel kind of dumb asking this seeing as everyone seems to have them and the answer is probably right under my nose, but where do you guys get the cardboard-looking egg crates for your insect bins?
God I must be annoying. I've started around 15 threads and don't even have my cham yet!
Anywho, I actually found a T5HO fixture I had laying around from one of my saltwater tanks that I thought I sold. However, its major overkill and is a 30" 4 bulb fixture. My question is, can they have...
When I get my cham I would like to feed silkworms. From what I've read, besides having your own colony buying eggs in bulk and hatching them as needed. I've been researching all night and am reading about the different "instar" stages. My question is what instar stage is the best to feed to...
I'm in the market for a cage and nothing really seems to have all the features that I want. =( I'd like a whole hood/canopy hiding the lights and wires, a proper drainage system, and for it to just look pretty and not like something out of a mad scientist's lab! These are just my preferences...
Alright, help me out here.
I'm a college student and my home is about an hour away from campus. I was planning on getting my first cham at the end of this semester, however I'm a little at a loss at what I'm going to do with him when school starts up again. I come home every weekend for...
Just wondering, is it safe/okay to gutload with dried fruits? From what I've read, gutloading with regular fruits that are high in water cause the crickets to have wet feces, making the bin dirty faster. Would using dried fruits still give them the vitamins, but eliminate the water issue...
I can see where this wouldn't work, but if it could, this would be amazing.
Is it possible (and safe) to have a continuous dripper that works from the drainage? Basically the bottom of the cage will be used as a reservoir for the drip system, but will have a few layers of filter material in...
I swear, this is the last thread I'm starting today. I feel like I'm spamming with so many questions! Basically, I'm a very poor college student and was kind of sticker shocked at the "complete setups" offered on some websites. I kind of wanted a little more customization, plus I already had...
I'm so sorry, you guys are probably so sick of answering this question. I think someone should write up a sticky on this, like a cham shopping list, because I don't remember actual products being touched on in the current (and magnificent!) sticky. I tried to do a forum search, but I came up...
I'm probably going to be getting a veiled cham this summer and I figured that once males reach maturity they would turn into little jerks, no? I know some people have different results reading around on the forum, but isn't it the general consensus that veileds are normally a bit more...
Hey all,
Thinking about getting a cham this summer (male veiled) and this is the first time I'm considering setting up breeding cultures of food. When I used to keep other reptiles, I just bought crickets when needed. I know my mother wont be too keen on having tons of bugs in the house, so...
I don't have a cham and wont for a few years, I'm just doing the research now.
I've also never dealt with screen cages. I was wondering if using a mister like MistKing makes a watery mess around the cage? I understand the drainage system for the bottom, but what about the sides of the cage?
Sorry to start another thread and not go right to the sticky, but I didn't see all of these on the database and was thinking my questions would get more attention if they were in their own thread. I'm in the planning stages for a free range green house a few years down the road, and the plants...
Just a thought I had. I think it would be really neat to attempt breeding someday, but I don't think I ever want to own a female due to the constant infertile egg thing. I plan on having a freerange greenhouse, and I think the gravid thing would just be annoying. Another thing too, I think...
I'm in the process of just studying and learning, I don't have a cham and wont for many years to come still. However, I was wondering if there are any known fungi that are safe/toxic to chameleons? I think they can be pretty neat looking growing up the side of a tree trunk and what not.
Hello CF! This is my first post on this forum, and even though I am a beginner I thought I'd hang out on the freerange fourm because of the greenhouse plan I'd like to put into play. Also, you'll soon learn I type a lot, but I try to bold important things to be less annoying.
Currently I am a...
