I think for the most part water heaters are a waste of time. If you think of it, for water to stay warm has to be consolidated or in a container. This is why water heaters do work to heat the water in a reservoir. However, most misters pray such fine droplets of water that any heat that is...

I agree with this.

Just playing devils advocate, I think you hit on a reason why the IRS wants to classify this as a hobby. To many people will claim things just to get a tax break. Since Chams come from far off countries, I could see someone stating a trip to those countries is a "business" expense and try and...

Payment sent! Thanks for the input folks! I look forward to Andee's shipment! (y) Sherman thanks you as well! lol

Thats cool that you can do this for your reptiles, but I can't help feel a bit sad that they will be further away and that access to them will be much less convenient especially in inclement weather. :( Perhaps this can be the new guest room instead, after all the Chams are family, not guest...:p

Not sure if anyone answered this, but if you mean water in the bottom of his enclosure, this is a big No-No. Standing water can cause respiratory issues and is a cesspool for bad stuff to grow! Water on plants is fine.(y)

Ahh, to be young and "green" in the ways of cham husbandry again...:rolleyes: LOL, I just came across this thread. Not sure how I missed it. I'm no pro, but I can feel your anxiety and understand the rational behind the questions your asking. There is a learning curve to this, and I don't...

The MistKing manual clearly states that you should not unscrew the nozzles and that they are set/ fixed from the factory. I'd be a bit leary turning the nozzles. Out of the box my nozzles were just fine. http://online.fliphtml5.com/jrle/oqmi/#p=18

Well that sure makes a difference doesn't it! PM sent.

Hmm, great ideas but I have limited space and using a tub present it's own issues when it comes to feeding. My current setup I just slide the tube out of the keeper and shake what I want into a small container (an empty plastic powdered drink container) and add my Calcium plus. I then stir...

Thanks to all for the responses. I did see your post Andee, but a few things set me back and I did not have sufficient privileges to post on that thread for some reason. Your post said (in part): 50 Mixed Dubia nymphs (I can also focus on certain size ranges you want) - $10.00 100 mixed...

I'm on the fence over this topic. I have a heart, and love these and all animals and when I see them in less than adequate conditions like at big box pet stores, my first reaction is to save it. The logical side side of me kicks in about 1 second later and tells me be all I'll be doing is...

Anyone here have a reliable, clean source for Dubia's? I need to find an alternate source as my primary (Josh's frogs) does not appear to have anything larger than 1/4" for sale these days. I'm wanting Sherman to step up to 1/2" size Dubia's but have not seen them available on the Josh's Frog...

Auto will free you up and be much more convenient than manual misting. You really have to have the best devotion ever to hand mist. This means being able to be home 3-5 times a day to mist (no job) and no vacations unless you have someone you absolutely trust who also has no life. Best...

Since I introduced Dubia's, Sherman snubs his nose at crickets. He eats them when he's hungry enough. I have been finding Dubia's much easier to care for and maintain than even crickets. I should have had my camera out, I caught him eating Dubia's upside down. They are silly little things...

Ok, please don't laugh. I buy crickets about every other week for my boy Sherman. They come in a box, 250 or more at a time. I keep them in this: https://www.joshsfrogs.com/exo-terra-cricket-pen-large.html The problem is getting them from the box to the keeper. I always have several...

I'd be way too afraid my cham would shoot thru the bars on on it's way back into his mouth break his tongue or injure it if it wrapped around a bar........ But it's an great size. If you could somehow frame it out from the inside with mesh, it might work, but that would significantly add to...

I'm with james0o0, not sure what you mean (pics would help) but what I would do is see if there is place the water pools to the most. and drill a hole or holes there. Some people from what I read slightly raise one side of the enclosure to create a slope for drainage. Then you can control...

No colored bulbs. You need white light for enclosure lighting and UVB bulb. Do not relay on colored bulbs for general lighting and do not use them for night lights either. The exception would be if you had some small red or blue LEDs for PLANT growth. You defiantly want more white than red...

Hi!!! Does the misting on top of the screen cause any issues with build up or clogging of the screen over time? I would assume the use of distilled water would help alleviate the issue, but wasn't sure how this worked out n the long run. BTW, Sherman is doing AWESOME! Growing into a quite...
