I have basically an entire dubia colony for sale. I am keeping just a few of them for my chameleons. The group that I am selling will be about 300-400 roaches of all sizes (i wish there was a good way to count them, but there will be a BUNCH!). You will get probably 75-100 adult dubia that are...

SOLD! Thanks Luis

My colony needs a big trimming. I feed off the nymphs but I can't keep up with the dubias. I keep ending up with more and more adults. I reality you'll probably get 300 as I always way underestimate. This will be more than enough to get a huge colony brewing! I can ship these early this week...

I have one male panther that is so-so on them. I hate crickets so I try to make the roaches his staple which is easier said than done. I have two methods that help me. He loves superworms so I always start his feeding with one of those. I normally get his attention with one, then let it crawl on...

My dubia colony needs some major pruning. I sold off about 300 recently and need to sell off another 300. I had to lower the temperature just a bit recently so they would slow down their breeding. This means most of the roaches are subadults or adults. I would love to sell all 300 to one...

My dubia colony is out of control! I have way to many and need to seriously prune the colony. I don't know exactly how many I need to sell off but I'll go in lots of 100 for $20, not including shipping. These will include a mixture of all sizes including adults that will either be gravid...

It may not be causing your current problem but you will need a better light setup to prevent future problems. You need a fluorescent bulb for UV and another bulb for heat. You should get a repti-sun 5.0 for UV and a standard 60 watt normally works well for basking depending on the size of the...

About 10 years ago when I had a bunch of chams I used to regularly put them out to bask. I had a whole setup of ropes and things for them to take full advantage of the sun on my porch. I normally sat with them, but If memory serves, the phone rang and I got distracted. I came back out 5-10 later...

Day and Dow, :D Thats what happens I guess when a 20 month old with a 30 word vocabulary names the chams... maybe He'll rename them sometime when he learns some new words, but for a month now day and dow have stuck.

LOL! :D Good stuff

The drainage base is definitely not something you could wipe with any effectiveness. It is actually quite rough. However with the screen I used as the poop tray on very small pieces of dirt/potting soil can make it down. Everything else is caught. The way its all made and sealed with poly it...

Finally, here are some photos after some adjustments. I removed the roof hanging plant hooks. I replaced them with wires to the corners. I also added the chameleons, obviously. The humidifier piped in is working as well as the misters. The shelving and Prison food trays have worked great...

And more

Alright, just in case anyone is curious what I did here, here are some construction photos. As you will notice there is a gap between the last construction photo and the completed photos. I put a home on the market (im a realtor) and the camera ended up at the office for the remaining construction..

What changed my mind about wire safety things over the lights is the incredible ease they would provide for a climbing spot. If I left them bare, without a wire cover then if they are out of reach, they are safe from burning at least with direct touch. If the cover is on, the cover would have to...

Yeah currently with the hanging wires from the pothos are the only places that they could get near either light. There is basically nothing to grip onto from the screen to get within 6" on the smaller side probably 12" on the larger side. I really designed the light configuration with that heat...

Prison trays, LOL! I really don't know how much I will use the doors, but I figured it would be incredibly easy to cup feed through those. I also figured it might be a little less stressful and much more consistent. When that door opens food, when the big door opens its something else...

Hadn't thought about a shatter. I'll think about a protection from it and put something in there to help protect in that event. I've never had a light shatter but I've heard of it happening. The current positions don't allow the chams to get anywhere near the basking bulbs and actually I have...

Was that the giveaway that I'm a guy? lol. I took those at about 1 in the morning and stickers were low on the priority list at that time of night. They are off now, I agree they look very tacky!

Jim, I wish I could find a nice ficus to fill it out. The only ones locally that are big enough are about 70 or 80 dollars each. Until I find something cheaper there are no ficus trees in the plans :(. As for your plan I would do something like pure mentioned. Its a lot easier to add...
