Very much appreciated friend thank you

You’ve been a lifesaver through all of my posts, thank you so much first and foremost! The tongs I have do have rubber tip covers but honestly theyre kinda hard to hold the bugs with without crushing them, probably gonna stick to cup and hand feeding to be honest. The handling went decent today...

So would you recommend leaving it off entirely for the next mont or two?

I just got my juvenile Cham about 9 days ago, almost 3 months old. Planning to attempt the first tong feeding tomorrow, and depending on how that goes I will attempt the first true handling since he was shipped. Assuming he happens to be a social butterfly who likes out of cage time (in the...

Thank you for the reply, I’m just now seeing this! He ironically stopped cage climbing the day after I posted this thread :), he will still climb the sides during the day and will occasionally still sleep upside down from the top, but he’s been exploring much more lately. Can you please...

we got here thursday, still hanging upside down… luckily ive been off work so i can shut lights off as needed while hes directly under it, but I wont be off forever. Bill strand says 1-2 days of this behavior is normal while adjusting, but were now on day 4. Should I be worried?

I was in the market for a guard dog so, two birds one stone kinda deal😅

Google is only giving me how long they are, and occasionally how wide they are lol. Im having a hard time getting a straight answer on if I need to account for their height regarding the “6-8” distance basking branch” rule of thumb due to the fact I have a halogen bulb so it sits higher in the...

For anyone curious, these are the readings from each spot in the enclosure, and you can get a general sense of where I hung the probes for the exteriorly mounted unit. Seem okay? These reads are taken about 30mins after a 3 min mist (like I said im trying things lol)

Awesome thanks for that. I realized my probes were a little low in the cage so I elevated them more towards the center of the height of the cage, numbers went up a bit which was reassuring. And funny enough I found another digital hygro/thermometer in my house and threw it center top near the...

I ended up doing shower liner last night, seems to be helping. And honestly, should have just bit the bullet myself and got a hybrid to save myself this hassle but hey, its a good learning experience! Lol

Good to know thanks! Still having a bit of trouble with my ambient temps, could I use a gentle space heater towards the bottom to acclimate the inside a bit and help raise the temperature? Any other tips for this? Really frustrating!

Peak of 85 for a panther? Just want to be clear as I’ve heard 85 minimum for them. I do realize I never specified which kind of cham Im getting, oops!

More sticks have gone in since this photo was taken, ive been using a temp gun for my basking stick, im about 7in away with my temps ranging from 84-91F peak at the highest point, do I want these numbers to be slightly under the recommended temp range to account for his height? Thank you !

I have added many more sticks since this picture was taken! Thank you for the info

How crucial was running the fogger through the front? I cut the screen in the back to ziptie the tubing to the top of the screen in the back. What did you go with for covering? Shower curtain?

First time owner here, I have been religiously researching and setting up in preparation for my little guy, however im having some difficulties getting my numbers where I want them… MistKing set up for 630a (30min before lights on) and 730p (30min after lights off) with a brief 1 minute mist at...
