My Petsmart put this up lol But seriously, if you have any concerns about the care of any animals at your local Petsmart, call that corporate #.

An often overlooked method for increasing and maintaining humidity is a good old spray on the screens. A Mist King can’t do this. Get a good hand sprayer and hit your screens with some lovin after you’ve soaked the interior of your enclosure. This creates a moisture buffer and will hold...

I buy 50 crickets weekly and keep them in a clean black bucket under my grasshopper enclosures with no lid. The bucket is new so the sides are smooth. They can’t climb or jump out. And it’s really dark under there. I just toss them in the bucket and give them food. They have no cardboard...

My local Petsmart in Broomall, PA just replaced their entire reptile section of the store. Here’s a pic of the new enclosures. All of the old glass enclosures with screen tops are in an easily accessible dumpster next to the store. There has to be 20 which may be good for frogs or baby chams.

Herbie’s tongue speed is next level. My guys don’t go hungry.

I feed my adult panther chameleons and my adult veiled chameleon every other day. That’s 15 feedings per month. 13 of those feedings are with Arcadia Earth Pro. 2 of those feedings are with Repashy Calcium Plus LoD So instead of remembering to dust biweekly I just went ahead and made a...

I just wanted to note that my ambilobe male, Herbert does not do well with night time temp drops to 66 degrees. I’ve noticed every time I give him that exact night time temp drop (or less), he doesn’t come out of his sleep spot the following day until he is prompted to do so. Meanwhile the...

If you’re around Philadelphia you can have them. Great shape. I just don’t need them anymore. Shipping wouldn’t be cost effective

Just a quick post to say old spice bottles work great for dusting feeders. I use an old cinnamon bottle because the holes are just the right size. Saves me lots of wasted calcium powder and a whole lot of mess. Just turn it on the side and give a few quick taps. You can even buy a...

I am posting a couple videos to accurately depict what a “medium” feeder grasshopper nymph looks like from Feedmychameleon.com Dean said the hopper nymphs don’t grow as quickly during colder months so they have gotten smaller. Per Dean, the small nymphs, “…are about half the size on avg” (of...

Wouldn’t it be great if the experienced keepers on here posted a pic of their first enclosure and pointed out all the bad things we did wrong? Here’s mine: Medium Reptibreeze - Recommended by Petco Substrate tray full of coco fiber - You know, to clump up the the poops for easy pickup….like...

These racks are amazing but need slight mods to fit two side-by-side XL Reptibreeze enclosures. The problem is the angle irons. https://www.homedepot.com/p/Husky-5-Tier-Heavy-Duty-Boltless-Steel-Garage-Storage-Shelving-Unit-in-Black-48-in-W-x-78-in-H-x-24-in-D-N2R482478W5B/319132811 The...

Hi, my name is Oliver. I am a 1 year old Nosey Be and I’m really shy. I tend to bite people who grab at me. People thought I was mean so no one took me home. My store was closing and I had no where to go. Then I finally found a forever home with someone who understands me. I want to eat a...

I hope this photo tutorial helps someone. Use long zip ties or just hang them together to make them longer. Zip ties are easier than wire to make it level.

Here is my process…

A reptile store in Philadelphia is closing, which is very dear to my heart. I want to help take in their chameleons and get them to loving homes. Hopefully the forums can pitch in and help. All of their chameleons and equipment are for sale and I got a bulk price for all of them and their...

IllExotics is closing in Philadelphia. Their livestock is 25% off but they are shutting their doors in 2 weeks. So if you’re in the Northeast you could probably get a beautiful CB and well cared for chameleon for a hefty discount. I would expect 50-75% off before they finally shut their...

I installed curtain rod hangars 5” down from the ceiling and looped a black rope into Herbie’s enclosure. It took all of 5 minutes before he explored the new exercise loop. He made it a few feet and got a little worried, because the rope wasn’t taught or wide enough. Cham dad fail. Anyway...

Tony stands tall on the high branch and flexes those chicken legs to intimidate us all. I’m terrified! It’s like he’s on a prison yard showing everyone how much he can lift. Does anyone else’s cham do this confident strut/display?

I was feeding my grasshoppers fresh greens with some dry food in a separate dish. Recently I was dusting my feeders and it hit me…. I decided to wash the greens like usual and then dusted those greens with nutritious dry powder foods like Repashy Bug Burger, Cricket Crack, and Mazuri Cricket...
