Make sure you have a good hydrometer to measure the humidity and yes people do use plastic around some of the screen enclosure to keep the levels up. Shower curtains work well.

I get my water for the mister from one of those reverse osmosis vending machines at the supermarket. It is only $.35 a gallon. It doesn't clog my nozzles or leave any mineral deposits.

I use them along with dubias, supers, wax, butters, silks and horn worms.

I keep my butters and wax worms in oatmeal or bran in the fridge. No need to feed them. Reptiworms need to be kept more moist in a topsoil substrate and not in fridge and I feed them all the old greens, fruits, sweet potatoes that the crickets or roaches don't eat. If the bran/oats get wet the...

I also added some more ventilation holes in the tub that I have the crickets in and found that the oranges lasted longer without molding due to the better airflow and lower humidity.

A good thing but expensive. I limit myself to buying them every few weeks :) I can go through a dozen between my veiled and beardie in 2 days.

Phoenix aka Calciworms aka Reptiworms are my veild's favorite. He eats about 5-10 a day.

Well I have figured out my Cham does NOT like it when I wear a red shirt. He runs away and hides faster than when the mister hits him LOL. I know red is usually a sign of aggression so it kind of makes sense.

I get mine from reptiworms.com. 300 smalls shipped for $16. I feed them sweet potato and mustard greens. They come in a compost dirt and it is safe if the Cham happens to ingest a little. I keep mine in the container they come in at room temp.

If I slept like my veiled does, also named Karma LOL , I would need a chiropractor visit every day!

My 7 month old veiled will only eat the hornworms when they are small. I have some that have gotten to be 4 inches now. I am hoping they will cocoon and turn into moths.

Oops I always forget CA is also Canada. LOL.

He won't touch dubias. I've tried several times. From small ones to larger ones :(

Well my veiled is 7 months old. He went on a hunger strike in December and wouldn't eat crickets anymore. I then got horned worms and he loved them. I also got some reptiworms and silks. He also gobbled them up. Now he wants nothing to do with the hornworms and Silks. He only wants reptiworms...

I'm in NorCal (Sacramento area) and we don't have any fires but it is warm and extremely dry. I am going to get a cool mist humidifier since my house it only 19% humidity. We need rain bad.

I live in CA and mulberryfarms.com ships them to me all the time.

My 7 month old veiled has given up eating crickets and super worms. Now I give him reptiworms, horn worms and silk worms.

Thanks James200111

It has been awfully dry here in Northern California. Yesterday my humidity in my house was down to 19%. My enclosure is barely keeping 30%. I am going to add a humidifier to the room. I am guessing the cool ones are better than the warm ones? Any brand/model preferences?

My veiled does that too. Sometimes his looks like a cat or dog scratching themselves !
