    New Nosy Mitsio Babies

    Good afternoon Norcal55. I haven't had any chameleons in a few years. My last was a Nosy Mistio Ambilobe cross. He was the most brilliant cham I had ever owned. He would turn pastel of every shade almost. I was curious if you were going to be selling some of your clutch. If so what would...

    Lingustrstum shrub

    I recently purchased a lingustrum shrub for a nursery that is going out of business. Fox nursery on staples street in Corpus Christi Tx if any one is interested. The plant selection is limited now but the pot sales are crazy cheap. Anyway I have read that this tree is non toxic but was just...

    t5 fixtures

    I do not have a solar meter so I will consult Todd before I make a final choice. I feel like my cham gets sufficient uv from me taking him outside plus what he gets inside. It is during the winter months that I would be most concerned about. Maybe I will switch to the higher uv bulb during...

    Thanks for the input. I will consider doing that. I do take him outside for 45 minutes to 2 hours twice a week during the warmer months. He gets some good Texas sun and a long shower each time. I want to replant his cage soon, but I am worried now that it is warming up the pavement ants are...

    I know my cham will. I want to get his enclosure back to the way I want it. I am just waiting for some extra income to get new lights, soil, and plants.

    t5 fixtures

    I found a t5 4 bulb fixture for $90 dollars by oddesea on aqua traders. I was curious if the t5 arcadia bulbs would function in this fixture properly. I am guessing it would not matter. I read some posts from reef tank keepers and they were using 10,000k and 18,000k bulbs which is much more...

    Large enclosure feeding methods??

    I have an adult male mitsio cross in a large enclosure. It is roughly 8x8x4. I used to have my plants planted in the cage, but I made the mistake of over watering. Now I have the plants potted, but would like to go back to a planted enclosure now that I have learned my lessons. I have always...

    3...2...1...go!!

    reply Wow that is amazing that your green house holds such a good temp. I know that if you have screen sides that are covered it will be harder to keep the temp than if you had solid sides. Those were just the first things that come to my mind. We really do have a lot of strong northern...

    3...2...1...go!!

    ideas I think it is very cool what you are trying to do. I have some concerns about controlling the temperature during the winter. I live in rockport tx and it is cold here for more than four to six weeks. I am pretty sure you would have to heat your cage quite a bit in the winter even if...

    Fussy panther

    strikes Yep don't worry. I have the same trouble. I just stopped worrying about as much. I agree hydration is the most important thing. My panther loves super worms and crickets when he is hungry. When he is not super hungry he responds better to super worms. He likes to eat more and...

    Not eating enough?

    eating Don't worry to much. They really can go awhile with out eating or eating feeders in numbers. I know this because my panther does not eat like crazy. I wish he would but he constantly goes up and down in the amount of feeders he will eat. I think the most important thing to do is...

    Feeding chameleons pinkies?

    pinks I like your post dlegare. It is the most scientific general post. Chameleons don't feed on rodents very often and I don't eat prime rib very often. Is it going to kill me? No, but I will get some nutrients from it as well as my tastes buds getting some really good stimulation...

    Meller's?

    mellers I would buy this cham if in a heart beat if I had room. I would love for someone to give he/she a new home in a nice big enclosure. This is a good deal I think. I look at it every three or four days. It is in a small enclosure with a lot of people traffic. The store is doing the...

    Meller's?

    mellers I don't know where you are located but there has been a Mellers sitting in my local pet store for four months. He or she looks well. I am not sure how old the chameleon is, but its over all length is some where around eighteen inches. They are asking 170. I have never shipped...

    Protecting wood that will be in soil?

    wood rot I would agree with carlton. No matter what you put around that tree in the soil if it isn't alive and doesn't have a chance to dry out on a regular basis it will rot and get mold. I have kept a planted large enclosure for two years and eventually lost the battle of to much moisture...

    Too Friendly Jackson's?

    friendly cham I just got a new panther a couple of weeks ago. He seems to be very friendly. After eating a few feeders he will come across the cage and crawl on to my hand and up my face. I haven't seen him scratching at the cage or show any signs of discomfort so I guess he just likes to...

    Giant Outdoor Chameleon Cage

    materials That is truly a stunning outdoor enclosure. I am going to be building an outdoor enclosure soon. I was wondering where you purchased the exterior mesh and if it was coated welded wire or plastic. I have looked at a couple of hardware stores in town, but didn't find anything like that.
