So, the one pothos I put in my reptibreeze is doing good. the other one, not so much, theleaves are starting to turn yellow. I have been hand misting the cage 2x a day and actually watering the pothos and the schefflera plant 1x a week. What am I doing wrong? The schefflera seems to be getting...
I have 2 of those misters for my dart frogs and green tree frog enclosures and honestly, I won't spend the money on them again. The one I have had for about 1 year and it has already taken a poop. It will constantly mist when I have it set on the timer, or it will run for the alloted time and...
I found a schefflera plant that was probably 3 ft tall and about 4ft diameter in the fullest part. Also found 2 pothos that were in hanging pots. I just removed the hangers from the pots, re-potted all plants with clean dirt, organic dirt and washed the plants off. I think in grand total, on the...
So, I finally have the setup looking pretty decent. I still have to work out a drainage system and a homemade misting system. Right now, I am just misting everyday, a couple times a day. I also need to come up with a smaller lay box to put in there and have a taller/deeper instead of wider lay...
Should I be worried that its been about a month and a half to two months since she started showing her gravid colors and hasn't laid the eggs yet? When do I start worrying about her being egg bound?
I am especially worried about her since she has MBD from being gravid. She cant even climb so...
So, my veiled is only 9-10 months old. And she is gravid for the first time. I have a laybox in with a soil/sand mixture. I have been keeping it moist for her. I took her to the vet about a month ago because she was starting to show the signs of MDB. Vet said it was due to the abnormally large...
I hardly ever get to see mine drink. She hates when I mist the cage cause I try to mist her too. Very rarely she will come closer and let me mist her and I will get to see her lick her lips to get the water thats beading up on her.
You can also take a plastic yogurt container and poke holes in it to secure it to the side of the cage with wire. I use a deep one that my cham can hang at the top of and launch her tongue and get the bugs in the bottom. (makes it deep enough usually that the bugs cant crawl out of)
Is there a list of veggies and fruits that are safe for chams? I have tried looking on the internet, but haven't been able to find anything. I ask cause I have a bearded dragon and know that certain things aren't safe to feed to them. was wondering if chams are the same.
I currently have a...
another option is a monsoon. I have a couple of them for my various critters and it seems to work well. I use a clear shower curtain on 3of the sides so i don't have to worry about getting my other furniture wet. And it works pretty well. you can set it to mist so many times a day for certain...
I dont think depth would matter that much. Its really height that you are looking for so they can climb. I believe the typical is 2x2x4 just because it allows for branchy live plants.
Thanks Laura! I will try that. I bought a grapevine wreath that I plan to soak in some bleach water to kill any nasties on it. Your cage looks almost exactly like mine. do you manually mist yours or do you have a misting system? If you have a misting system, what do you do about drainage? The...
Does anyone know if dried grapevine is safe to use for veiled chams? The craft stores around my area suck. All I could fine was dried grapevine. I am wanting to use it in my new 24x24x48 repti-breeze enclosure along with a pothos, hibiscus, and umbrella tree.
Also, can anyone recommend how...
LOL!!! Ouch! My 6 year old beardie loves to do that to my fiance. He is not happy just sitting on his shoulder. He has to crawl up his face to sit on his head. lol
1. playing hide and seek with your cham in her cage, only to realize you have been staring at her for the past 10 minutes.
2. Asking all your neighbors with Hibiscus plants, if you can have the flowers when they start to wilt.
3. Having a mini fridge in your bedroom just for your reptiles...
I have been bitten, stung, and scratched by alot of animals. I have to say the worst bites were from a 8foot red tail python that tried to make my hand a snack and the goliath bird eating spider that thought I was going to drop it becausemy hand was too small to hold it all. The worst stings...
