Initially, I was planning on using it for a screen replacement. However, I thought if I heated and molded into shape, it would be study enough. Certainly for small baby cages. Idk about adult size cages. It would be impossible to use cut pieces, due to the thinness . I'm thinking of...

There pvcx/expanded PVC is great. I don't have a supplier nearby anymore though. .

1/4" is out of the question, cost wise. I'm exploring the use of thin sheets - approximately 1/8 inch, these would be braced with a door frame, at least. These are for small cages, not anything that would support heavy weight on top.

That's pretty much what I was planning. I'm curious if it's going to work.

I'm looking to make some nicer cages for my montanes. Originally I was going to go with a glass/acrylic panel and a wood frame. then I decided to get cheap and simple. I want to keep this as simple as possible, with as few components as possible. My current idea involves longer sheets of...

This is the biggest plus for a 48" vs a 36" cage - furnishing it. My cages are all home made 36x24x24 cages. They're well above the ground, over 6' up. but getting trees to fit is a pain. a 48" tall cage makes it so much easier to fit a good ficus or sheffelera.

I've got 1 male that I'm willing to part with(and maybe a female if someone is really interested). They are over 6 months old and doing well. I live in the mountains, and they've been exposed to cool nights every day - especially in the winter. I've attached some old pics of the males as well...

That wouldn't be a problem. Melleri will eat those things. But superworms will eat dead animals. Would be horrible to lose a chameleon and find it writhing with superworms.

I've finally hooked up the new misting system nozzles to all my cages after dragging my feet a while. The demotivator for me was that these cages were designed and built in 2004 - without the idea of a misting system in mind. So I finally decided to gradually phase out the old cages and just...

Just a few horsehair worms.

The quality of Madagascar imports is high because the price is high...and the quotas very low. Melleri are imported by the thousands, and must be pretty common. It's a shame, as WC imports will do very well if treated well. The treatment they receive from being collected to being in someone's...

Melleri are my favorites. I'm hoping to get a few in next month, hopefully farm raised F1s. Regardless, Ive been wanting to see them as CB more often. SO much easier to care for as CB than WC.

I had this problem with deremensis after about a year in captivity. WC males would never hesitate to court females or fight males. Until they were in captivity for a year. Then they lost all interest. For me, it was that my room was far too warm, and they never got a cool down period...

You may see some lethargy, as baytril is very rough on them, primarily the kidneys. Keep him extra hydrated.

Different brands?

The problems seem to be edema. Any time a chameleon has edema, it is usually blamed on over supplementation. I know several people have reported gular edema and swollen eyes after supplementing their chameleons. I also recall my friend losing his cb jacksonii to horrendous eye swelling. We...

At that age, females usually develop eggs. they must have a deep enough bin of soil/sand to dig a nest and lay their eggs. Has she been spending a lot of time the last several weeks along the bottom, or ground, of the cage? Post another picture of her, top/back down, focusing especially on...

I went ahead and checked google for images of chameleon xrays - most look like the above. I think that they are rounded because they are not fully developed. Hopefully, she lays them without incident. I see no immediate reason why she would not.

Those look to me to be near full-sized eggs, not undeveloped follicles. those are generally much smaller. When I've dissected females, the follicles were always much smaller. What problem presented itself to warrant an xray/diagnosis? She does not at all seem to be suffering calcium...

I would not discount the possibility that she has not finished developing the eggs. Furthermore, if they are infertile eggs, they might not fully calcify in the first place.
