Ok thanks! No pesticides anywhere near my house, and we actually have a very large park near my house! Where are the best places to find mantids, katydids, and etc? I have tons of those palmetto bug roach guys, but today he spit one out??!! So i'm not sure about that, again he loves the moths...

Ok thanks a lot! Not sure why I didn't think of using a household bulb. I always just thought I had to use one from zoo-med or something. That will be sufficient for basking correct?

Well if I can catch a dragon fly that would be awesome! But most of the grasshoppers/locusts around where I live are toxic. Here is a link to some info on what I see around here on those... Not sure what you saw though ;)...

What's the best type of set up to go with when using this size enclosure. I think what I have works and stays in the temperature range, but the bulbs I am using are going out constantly it feels like and they really aren't all that cheap. (Zoo-Med Blue daylight) and Lamps that you can buy are...

So yesterday I just started trying to find some bugs because I was pretty bored, and wanted to get some treats for my Cham from outside. Is anyone aware of the types of critters I will be able to find here in Florida??? Which ones are safe, which ones aren't, and if I need to dust or worry...

When you mist, try indirectly misting him, whilst you mist the rest of your cage, he won't mind getting a bit of water on him as long as its not a direct shot.

Glad everything cleared up for ya Shooby! =D

I would wait a little longer to turn off the lights, although it depends completely on when you turn them on in the morning, most people do 12 hours on 12 hours off.

My cham is scared of me most of the time! It takes a few weeks or months for them to get fully used to you. Just give it time. =) I've had to do the same thing, if you push them too much to early, they just get more scared especially cuz they are babies and are pretty small. Give her some time...

I think the general consensus is that he should be bred! =)

He is absolutely Gorgeous! What a guy. =)

What size cup do you think I should get? he is almost 5 months old now. sorry for all the questions but this is my first cham, and I don't really wanna waste my money on worms. Haha

Will do! I will order some other worms I guess, lol. He is still not paying any attention to the cricks in his cage as far as I can tell. :(

It's all we really have haha! And since crickets jump, I've found they do get out and etc. But most of the time, they just die off or you don't notice them. And as far as roaches go, they are common place here between the palmetto bugs and the other roaches we have, so having roaches around...

only been a minute or so, but so far he is not really responding to them.

I've offered butterworms, and crickets, thats all I have really been able to get ahold of. (I'm scared to order other worms because he already seems to completely ignore the butterworms.) I tried releasing the crickets to let them roam around, it may be he just doesnt wanna cup feed, which...

I knew I shoulda gotten a female >.< lol. Haha. NOT! I'm way too attached already!

THanks guys, I'm going to take this opportunity to address a concern of mine. My guy has seemed pretty healthy, but hasnt eaten all that much in the past couple of days, usually he'll snatch crickets right out of my hand, but hasnt done so in the past couple days. I've been trying to get him to...

Lol. I will give that a shot! =P

Haha. Yay for Nosy Be! I think mine is either going to be Nosy Faly (Oorana Mena)! We will see though! I really wish I could have a Cobalt baby! *Cough* Olimpia
