I always used to want to catch all kinds of things when I was a kid - up to and including some rodents which I was forced to release - but everything had to be kept in our carport because we didn't own the house we lived in at the time. When we moved into a house we finally owned we ended up...
I previously stumbled across a great post about building a fake tree for your enclosure (here), so I decided that I wanted to make that for my vivarium and I started that today.

Today I planted a few more plants - not for the enclosure, just for fun - and then my mom and I went on a vine hunt in the woods. Once nice thing about my yard being mostly kudzu (if you've never encountered that terror, consider yourself lucky, its called "the vine that ate the south" for a...
Best of luck homing your cham!! Even though I hate seeing animals upset, I don't know if I would be brave enough to say I wasn't capable of caring for a pet (I hope I could), you really are a great person and don't feel bad, you're doing the right thing.
I'm thinking of visiting a local reptile show or two just to meet people, but before I go I wanted to know if there's stuff you can do other than buy reptiles. You can get some feeders, can't you? And are there people just around to talk to? Are there activities?
Obviously all shows are...
That's actually a great idea!!! I already have a timer, I just haven't hooked it up yet, and for some reason I didn't think about this. Two heads really are better than one. Thanks!!!!
I just picked it up from the seller - still probably the best $10 I've ever spent - and man I did not realize how solid it was!! For some reason I was expecting particle board, but I'm happy to report that it is indeed solid, hardwood (which makes my job easier, as I won't have to reinforce it)...
I've started another thread (I am the queen of too many threads lol) specifically about having a female Chameleon in a bioactive vivarium because I'm sure that's a different ballgame than a male which most of the threads seem to be about (or at least, they don't specify a female as different)...
Since I've been planning my Bioactive vivarium (main thread here) I've been thinking more recently about how I'm going to deal with the fact that my chameleon is a female and as such will need specific habitat requirements (a laying bin for one). I have yet to see a post specifically about...
NEherp has some GREAT plants (here's their page) and really amazing customer service. Plus since you're in the North East, you're really close to them and so it would ship really quick. Depending on where you are you might even be able to stop by and pick it up at their warehouse. The prices are...
Today I got some seeds to grow plants for the enclosure. I had the thought of buying plants that had already been started - because I'm impatient - but the selection was no where near as good as what I could get in seeds (plus that way I know its pesticide free).
The plants I got are all from...
