For those that use Repashy Bug Burger, are you concerned that it contains D3? Is you're gut loading with it, is your Cham going to get too much D3? Is it a hydrator as well? How long is it good in the bins?
What is the most accurate way to measure the temp of your cham's basking spot? I have two digital thermometers with a temp probe zip tied to the branch and I also test it with a temp gun by shooting red dot pretty close to the branch and there is a huge variance in temps. It is driving me...
I am looking for commercially available Cham ready sticks. Does anyone know a good source? Also is the diameter important! I am going to start working on Herman's big boy cage. I would like something ready to put in the cage.
Is it possible to put some sort of an a heat lamp on a thermostat that will adjust the temps up and down to obtain a certain basking temp throughout the day instead of having to worry all the time and raising and lowering the dang light. I am going nuts. I want to set it and forget it like I...
I am about to place my second order for crickets for my 4 month old male Panther chameleon. Shipping is killing me. I am paying $35.00 for overnight. The crickets are only $10.00. LOL! I want to order as many as I can without them getting too big to feed off. Last time I ordered 250, 1/4...
I need to buy my supplements and Vitamins: I know I need
1) Calcium (without D3 or phosphorus) (every feeding)
2) Multivitamin (every 2 weeks)
3) Calcium with D3 (every 2 weeks)
What brands do you guys recommend? Should the multivitamin have D3 too?
A couple of feeder questions:
1. For those of you that feed crickets loose in your chameleons cage how can you be sure that all are eaten before bed and no attackers are left before bedtime!
2. Do you feed your feeders a different good to keep them alive than you feed to gutload or is it...
I am starting to put my chameleon cage together. The cage is assembled and I am working on lighting placement. It will be for a baby ambilobe. Should the heat lamp go in one of the back corners and the UVB in front of that from left to right? How far should the closest branch be from heat...
My next purchase is an automated mister. I would like as many opinions as possible for MistKing versus Aquazamp. Reliability and simplicity are very important. Thanks.
Does anyone sell cages in the US that has drainage options? I plan on putting my cage on top of additional cages I already have for snakes and the cham cage will be put on a piece of plywood on top of those cages. Before trying to get something custom made, I want to exhaust commercially...
So I am still doing my research and buying everything for my new chameleon (I haven't bought one yet). I was picking up mice today for my snakes and I spoke with the guy at the exotic pet shop. He highly advised me AGAINST getting a chameleon. He said they are extremely difficult to keep...
Will the mist king starter kit contain everything I will need for one ambilobe panther cage? I will start out with a juvie 17x17x30 and upgrade to 24x24x48. I want it to be able to handle the larger cage when I upgrade.
I just bought my cage and heat lamp hood and am searching for everything else I need to set up for a baby ambilobe panther. I know what items I need but if you feel strongly about something or a brand that is a must have, please let me know. I want to setup the perfect environment with the...
I am starting to purchase my supplies for my baby panther setup. I bought the 16x16x30 cage as my initial juvie enclosure. Is there a hood for the UVB light I can buy for this size cage that will transfer over to he big boy cage 24x24x48? I prefer not to buy one for the small cage and a new...
I am researching the Panther Chameleon and would love to get one. My immediate concern is feeders. I know I can easily bet crickets and they are pretty hardy. My problem is what other feeders are easy to mail order and keep for them. At the moment, dubias are off my list. I could...
