OH MAY GAAAAAAAWD!!! The 2nd enclosure of my shed-project is in use!
I postponed it by a week or two to create a double wall in the digging area where I could hide a heating wire in and that seems to warm up nicely which should keep the soil from getting to cold in winter.
Here's the previous...
Couldn't 'find' my old topic so I started a new... (i was to lazy to search okay:oops:)
Anyways I got a new phone so decided to make a few pics and share em.
Shed is still a bit messy but meeh, it looked worse before! I have also been slacking quite a bit due to a scorching hot summer and had...
My daughter likes bearded dragons a lot ever since once one nodded his head at her... and me as the only reptile lover in my household obviously will take this opportunity to get the kid on my team so I've decided I will sacrifice some of my valuable shed-space to build an enclosure for a...
Thought I'd create a new topic with few pics showing the progress of my shed project...
The Chameleon enclosure is officially 'finished', leaks have been closed as far as I can judge.

So I've been having some trouble with my boy Wurma lately, he has, what turns out to be a hematoma behind his eye.
I've been to the vet with him 3x now with the next visit to be scheduled for today.
First visit I got an ointment in case it was a parasite.
2nd visit I got antibiotics and another...
I'm making preparations to build a ~6m2 shed in my backyard for my Reptiles (and future addition(s)) and tools.
Reasons for this project are because my wife wants to use the chameleon room as a guestroom and she doesn't like insects in the house all that much... My motivation obviously is that I...

I have a drainagebin under my enclosures and need to empty it every day or else it will overflow.
I've notices that the water bin would evaporate a lot more when the air in the house was dryer...
So now I came to the idea to place a heatmat/heatcable under the drainage-bin helping the...
Sooo...
I recently bought a cheap 3D printer (Anet A8) and while tweaking printquality and stuff I figured, what better purpose than to print something for the chameleons....
I have some basic 3D modeling skills so I started to design some 'clip' you can tie to the screen of the cage and from...
After over 12 years of being my pride and joy Zwelgje has left me this weekend.
He had been declining food for a while and started to lose strength so I took him to a vet whom determined, as I feared, that he was just old and ready to die.
This hurts more than I ever could have expected, I...

I just found out a bunch of these things were in with my order of banded crickets... I threw em out, but now I also see them with my new order of crickets.
I usually buy small quantities of crickets but recently started buying bigger.
Silkworms: How I Do It
I will try to explain how to keep and breed silkworms with my (limited) experience and success so far. I’m writing this guide since I’ve promised to do so (@Twitchet, @Kristen Wilkins) once I was ‘full circle’ and could write out every step.

I'd like yall to meet the newest addition to the family, Robi the Ambilobe.
He is a 5month old CB panther of a WC father.
He's still a bit scared so I'm leaving him alone as much as I can for now.
Does anyone have a genius way of unclogging a clogged nozzle head?
One of my nozzles only drips, I don't think it's a chalk buildup since the nozzle is fairly new...
So I've got a bunch of silkworms for my chameleon and they eat a lot of their silkworm chow.
I read that they will also take dandelion leaves and endive which would save a lot of money but I'm concerned it will change the nutritious value of the silkworms since their diet normally only consists...
