    I have used this product. I primarily feed veg & leafy plant matter for hydration. You can also get a small pack of bee pollen if you buy a species specific feed pack from UK.

    New Ambilobe Panther owner looking for right setup

    Disagree with the ceramic heat emitter for primary heat source, light either reptile specific flood or some use incandescent light bulbs. In some situations you might need a secondary heat source that's when a ceramic heat emitter can be useful.

    Panther Cham Has A Broken Tongue
