guys I just ordered a new bulb and bloody realised it’s the Arcadia 14% and not the 12% will it be ok to use as it’s on top of the mesh?

hey guys has anyone ever plumbed a mist King into a small header tank with a ball cock to let water in after a spay cycle? I am sick of filling a bucket. I'll put an overflow on the tank too in case the ball cock fails.

Ok so here I the uk we are in caterpillar season and I have plenty of kale in the veggie beads which are loaded with eggs. Is it ok to capture and feed or is there risk or parasites? They grow super fast and probably to the size of supers or bigger. It's just the general white butterfly you see

Ok so up until recently Trevor has been so much happier and I'm seeing so may more colours that I used too. The thing is is he has had one of his eyes closed for the last 2 day. He does open it and tends too look around as normal but he will then close it again. It is really sunken when...

Just wanted to ask a question about times for a home made rain done. I have made it following a post on here connected to my mistking which I was very impressed with considering it took me about 5 mins. Trevor hates being spayed with a passion so I thought I would try it. Now with the...

Does this look normal to you guys? I'll try get some better pics. His mood hasn't changed and everything is normal and I'm unsure if it's a lump of part of his tongue inside his mouth It hasn't always been then there or I have never taken any notice of it but I notices it a while back. It...

Title says it all...... I have only had about 3 holes hatch in the last 5-6 weeks for some reason. Before I was getting hundreds but now I get hardly none. I have had well over 40 new adults but for some reason they ain't breeding. Nothing has changed Any idea guys?

Ok so this summer I'm going to build Trevor a new cage. It's going to be roughly 2ft deep x 3ft wide x 5ft high I currently have an arcadia t5 canopy that's 60cm so I was thinking on getting another one and rather than have it left to right I was going to get another one and have them on...

hey guys..... i have noticed trevor has gone back to his dark colours again over the hast 2-3 weeks. i think he is going to shed again which probably isn't helping. i have also noticed that the humidity is not what it was for some reason. it drops as low as 25% on the meter and only gets...

Just wondering if it could ever work? is it possible to have a chameleon outside in the uk? i would never do it during the winter as it only gets to a max of 60 on a good day. when it starts to worm up could i have an outside enclosure but still have heat lamps for basking? i want him to be...

So it was time for a good clean on Trevor's cage this weekend just gone. I was not happy with the leggy pothos etc so I gave it a massive haircut so it would be more of a bush rather than leaf less vines that looked horrible. I also got a few different plants to go in there. I'm trying 2...

So I went into a garden centre on the way back from shooting today and they had this little guy in there :-( He is a Yeman and I worked out to be about 4-5 months. He is clearly ill and after being there for nearly 2 hours I made them take him to the vets. I made them let me hold him and...

Ok so Trevor is clearly dehydrated as you will see. I did lover his misting slightly as he really hates it and it lowers the temp in the cage. It's misted 5 times a day for 30 seconds and has a big dropper that runs for about 3-4 hours a day. The last poo was fine but this one isn't. The...

I am going to build a free range for Trevor to come out on whilst we are home and want to provide some sort of light and heat so would a few of these be ok? http://www.arcadia-reptile.com/d3-uv-basking-lamp/ I want him to be able to come out for longer periods of time without missing out on...

Hey guys just thought I would post an update on Trevor! He seem to be getting better and since I changes his cage around to something completely different he seems to be happier. He has been off for the last few day and seemed pretty dull but he was getting ready for a shed. I have...

Ok so most have probably seen the problems I have had with trove and his new cage. He is getting better but still a dark green. He will brighten up now and then though. My problem is his eating. He is offered crix, roaches (2 types), locusts, Mario and wax worms (treat) He really isn't...

Ok so we had a batch of silkworms a while ago and I ran out for food. They were about 2" long and the main of them turned into cacoons. We have about 30 of them. About 4 days ago they started to hatch and then started mating. We have probably 5 mating pairs and some have already laid. My...

Ok so I know this is about food but it's a general question really. In the uk the chow to feed them is pricy but I seen on amazon that you can get dried malberry leaves. Would soaking the leaves rehydrate them to be suitable to feed? A 1kg bag of leaves is a much larger amount for the same price...

So i was just doing a bit of trimming and sorting/cleaning in Trevor's cage. And after he was out for a while on his free range play area I changes the basking light to a higher watt. After putting him back in he went to it as he must have been slightly cold. Why would only the area under...

Ok guys so there is still no change in Trevor's colours and mood. It's been 6 weeks since going into his new cage now and nothing I'm doing is making a difference. So the changes I have made are.... 120w halogen hanging from about 10" from the top mesh so it doesn't make it too hot to...
