Happy 10 month Birthday Zeus!

I've used this one for years with my frogs. I've had no issues.

They are very territorial in their cage, but once they are out they aren't so tough because they are in your territory. I never thought my veiled would become friendly but one day I opened his door and let him climb out and sit on it. Ever since then when he sees me in front of his cage, he...

I do the same thing that JaxyGirl said except we bought sticks from Menards. We stuck some into the plants at the bottom of the cage and then attached more going up with zip ties and wedging them into the corners of the tank. I would also get an automatic mister instead of a fogger because the...

I've never seen anything like that!

I have one big beautiful moth that hatched on Saturday and another one that is in the process of coming out of the shell. It's very cool to watch it wriggle around and get out. I had a small moth on Friday that fought all day to get it's little "helmet" off his head, he couldn't get it off and...

That's true, go in during the day and get the eggs the moths won't move!

I've only had the moths live for about a week, week and a half. They basically just mate and die. There is very little info about raising them on the internet. The only thing I ever found that was some help was the manduca project. The eggs aren't fragile, you can just pick them off or scrape...

I forgot to say, I heard that the tomato plant stimulates them to lay more eggs, it's not just something for them to lay the eggs on.

I don't think it matters, they will lay their eggs where they feel they want to lay their eggs. Even with a tomato plant they will lay on the mesh and branches their habitat. I would just keep things simple and not have a lot of places they can hide eggs. I keep mine in my chams old...

Looks like a super worm beetle. It is a long process to breed them. The beetles mate and lay their eggs and you can't even see them. The only way you know if it is successful is you can eventually see the substrate moving a little bit. The newly hatched worms are smaller than a grain of rice. It...

Such a beautiful tribute to your little buddy. It's obvious how much you loved him. It's very hard to watch them struggle and even harder when we lose them. One of my first frogs passed away shortly after I got her. She would have seizures and they were so hard to watch. She was on antibiotics...

Seymour looks a lot like Bumble :)

With Bumble I set his bird ladder down on the scale, 0 it out and then put him on it. He sits still long enough for the weight to measure.

I just looked it up, the cage kits from FL Chams doesn't look bad the only thing I don't like is it comes with calcium WITH D3 and you should use calcium WITHOUT D3. As far as the Petco one, for UVB you should really use a florescent tube bulb not a compact bulb. A compact bulb is going to...

I had good experience with FL cham. If it's your first cham I would buy from a breeder that only because you don't know where that pet store cham came from and how it was cared for etc. I'm not sure what is in the chameleon kit but personally I don't like pre-made kits. I like piecing things...

I ordered my male veiled from FL Chams and he is perfect. I looked at a few other places but we fell in love with one there. I had a little stress in the overnight delivery where he was supposed to be delivered on a Friday morning but when I checked UPS they said there was a problem he wouldn't...

Glad to hear things are getting better. Everyone here has such great advise! Being in central WI you should check out Dr. Foster and Smith they are in Steven's Point. They usually have lots of sales on reptile stuff. My parents live in Wautoma AKA "the middle of nowhere"!

we drilled holes in the bottom and let it drain into a bucket underneath. our cage is sitting on a wire self so the water goes right through.

We had that problem as Bumble got bigger he moved the vines around more. So we drilled holes in the bottom of the cage and now the water drains into a bucked underneath.
