How do you handfeed crickets? Do you grab onto a leg?

Thanks so much for the replies! I know of just the place to look for bugs, it's a state park so shouldn't be any pesticides. The links were of great help as well, it was really nice that there were some pictures so I can tell what bugs I find. Also, what if I left some food out to get...

I came across this while trying to find a place that will ship worms to Hawaii. I thought it was so funny! :D http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pXFpOaku0rc&feature=player_embedded#!

I'm not sure, they must eat something else out in the wild. I just hesitate to feed them wild bugs because I don't know if they've been exposed to pesticides. Also, can't the cham potentially get parasites from wild bugs? Not sure about that one.

Do you use a calcium supplement?

I know I need to offer a diet that consists of more than just crickets, however where I live we have extremely limited options. On this side of the island, from what I have found, there is only one pet store and they only sell the crickets. The next nearest shop is on the other side of the...

His urate is white with some clear stuff around it.

Actually I have never seen him drink. I have two drippers going, so I assume he drinks when I am not there. He doesn't seem to like it when I mist the cage, but I do it anyways. So I should wait a bit before taking the fecal sample in to the vet?

Hello all, we recently acquired a wild caught male Jackson. I am not sure how old he is, but including his tail he is about 9-10" so I am guessing not full grown quite yet. I know parasites are an issue with wc chameleons, and I am taking a fecal sample to the vet as soon as I can. Is...

It's funny you say she won't eat anything but crickets; we have a wild caught as well and he is the same way.

Thanks for the video, good info! Man those Arcadia bulbs are pricey! That's not the same bulb as the reptisun you mentioned earlier is it?

For a Jackson - We feed him every other day; we should be dusting with the calcium (without phosphorus or D3) at every feeding, correct? Then the calcium with D3 twice per month and herptivite twice per month? Just want to make sure I have this all down. :)

What's the difference between the two?

Great, thank you! I think I will try to transplant one of the hibiscus plants from outside.

Oh great, I am about to make a Home Depot run now! I love that place. :) Thanks!

Is this bulb going to be enough for that size enclosure? http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00101JI2Y/ref=oh_o00_s00_i00_details

Oh, and does the basking light stay on for 12 hours, same as the UV?

Okay, I figured he would need one. And that would be the regular household bulb, correct?

What size plastic planter do you use for the top?

They are 1 gallon Crystal Geyser water bottles. Those babies are so cute! :)
