Hi everyone, I’m having a bit of a nightmare. A few of you have helped me over the last year or with Bruce and I was in full belief I had the art of chameleon ownership mastered! However, the last two feedings Bruce hasn’t eaten. And then today I’ve come in to find him in this position He...

Hi everyone! I’ve had a bioactive enclosure for some time now and everything is going very well however after some time my lower logs have developed mould. I do have spingtails and they’re sorting the ground out but not these logs. Does anyone have any suggestions, I can’t take these out as...

Hi all, I hope everyone is well! I have not been on here for a while but I am back and in dire need of help! I’ve had a bioactive enclosure for a fair few months now and saw a while ago mushrooms is a sign of a healthy substrate. Well today I came home to find these two mushrooms sprouting...

Hi everyone! Im having a nightmare at the moment. I had some vines in my enclosure and my Cham scratched his feet badly so I cut up the spare log I had and removed the vines (see the below) He’s now started shedding on his legs but to ensure the humidity is high I have had my humidifier on a...

Hi everyone! My Cham has been in his bioactive set up for a month but I’m worried about the clean up crew. I’m sure the springtails are surviving as I put some more in there a week ago and 4 days after when I lifted some soil I could see them. However I’m worried the isopods are dying I’ve...

Hi team, Does anyone know if this is a graze or the start of shedding. I’ve come home and had bruce out and noticed it. It hasn’t seemed to of effected him in the slightest he’s still climbing and fully active but the red colour makes me think it’s a graze, any ideas?

Hi everyone, I switched to bioactive around 1-2 weeks ago. I added 2 tubs of spring tails and 1 of isopods. However when I turn up the soil directly in front of me I can’t see them :( do you think they died or does it just take a while for them to get going?

Hi everyone, I have a mist king system that I’ve been using the past week however the mister hits the roof a little bit when it fires but not much. However, this does lead to a build up of water droplets on the roof, through the day the heat takes them away but at night I feel they may sit...

Hi everyone, I’ve just had my first night with the mistking system and had a few of my times set up the wrong way lol so it misted at 8pm 10pm 12am 3am 5am 7am. I did not want this but as a few of you know I’ve been trying to raise the humidity in the enclosure over night as currently in the UK...

Hi everyone! I have recently upgraded to an enclosure with a mesh door and mesh left hand side. Previously I achieved 100 humidity every night but now I’m struggling to achieve 70 which is not good. Last night I hung cloth 80% of the way up the viv but it didn’t seem to make much of a...

Hi everyone, Some of you will of seen my progress with building a bioactive enclosure. Today I put my Cham in and I’ve videoed it and put it on to tiktok, if anyone fancies a look my tag is @jack_wardayyyy I would love to see some support and think it would be awesome for people to see as I...

Hello!!! I am making a whole video/tiktok series on this and will likely start posting the first bits tomorrow once it’s fully complete but right now I’m 95% done I just need a bit more substrate tomorrow and then the isopods, moss, vines and extra branches can go in!

Hi everyone, I hope you are all well! As some of you will of seen before I’m in the process of making my chams first bioactive enclosure, I am also making an expanding foam background! I just thought I’d give a quick update for anyone interested. Last night I applied some elastapur and stuck...

Hi all! Been looking at getting one of these plants lately and I can either get them with or without the vine support. I’d like to get them with the vine support but I’ve seen people mention the risk of my chams nails getting stuck, what are peoples thoughts on this? Should I avoid the vine...

Hi everyone, As a few of you will of seen I am currently making a bioactive enclosure for my Cham with expanding foam walls. As expected, not all the substrate stuck to the expanding foam; I need a bonding agent. I do have this which is also used as a bonding agent. However, I do not know if...

Hi everyone! As some of you will know I’ve been looking into my first bioactive set up and for this I really wanted to do an expanding foam wall. Today I completed the back piece of the wall using logs, coco planting mats and substrate. I have stuck these on using expanding foam and I am...

Hi everyone, I’m in the process of building a bioactive enclosure for my Cham and I’ve been mapping out where certain plants will go. I’m doing an expanding foam background with coco fibre planting mats for the hanging plants and getting a log for a small fern towards the top of the enclosure...

Hey everyone! Apologises for the mucky screen, this would be cleaning week but my boy moved to his new enclosure next week so we’re holding off with wiping the doors down and taking things out as we don’t want to mix his life up for so many days on the trot! Now to the main reason I’m here...

Hi everyone! I took my chameleon to the vet for a consultation literally 2 days ago and she said he is in perfect condition and looks awesome. However, yesterday morning he rubbed his eye on a hosta leaf as he went by it and shut his eye for a minute or two and looked like he was blinking...

Hi everyone, I’m in the process of putting together a bio-active enclosure for my Cham and I am planning on doing an expanding foam background but I am really unsure what foam is safe to use. I’m from the UK and all the videos I’ve watched use US based products meaning per bottle they’re all...
