    Lay Bin Questions

    I just realized I can use a black trash bag as a liner and tie it around the lip tight but the other questions remain.

    Veiled owners please chime in

    Never had luck with offered greens, I kinda gave up on them to be honest, my female will eat parts of my scheffs every now and again. I haven't had to trim it back since I got her so she is doing a good job at removing new growth. Nothing quite excites her like crickets though.

    Lay Bin Questions

    I have chosen play sand as the medium I am going to take, does the bin need to be black? I just bought a rubbermaid container that is 16"x14"x14" but it is fairly see through plastic, I was thinking of taking sandpaper to it and scratching it to reduce visibility. Is this necessary or will she...

    Female Veiled (shy girl pictures reflect)

    Alright time for an update, her name is aurora... she has grown into quite the veild, her colour is fantastic but very subtle and she has these light purple streaks on her face and that run along her ridges. She has the same purple on her body with the light green, she really is stunning in...

    Feeding Dubia Roaches

    Its the purine content not necessarily animal vs plant proteins, cat food wouldn't be too bad depending on the type of fish. Im not recommending it but for arguments sake it could be done. Not that you should even be feeding feeders high protein diets anyways. The real reason I see high protein...

    Feeding Dubia Roaches

    Are they really more nutritious as far as a chameleons needs are concerned? Crickets have less fat, lower protein levels and a higher moisture content by percentage. So they would be better for hydration and arguably better staple for some species who require lower fat and protein levels to...

    So the panther market has crashed?

    People cash in, prices plummet, quality drops. What sucks is breeding animals can be a very rewarding part of exotic husbandry, hell I remember trying to breed many species of fish that never bred in captivity, it was a challenge and was fun trying to be the first. Now it seems people just...

    Best way to clean?

    I spot clean leaves for poop when I see it, wipe the bottom daily to get rid of excess water, poop, dead bugs, leaves, calcium outlines from fallen crickets, etc etc. The enclosure drains well and into the plants for the most part so I don't have a swamp issue going on at the bottom. I also...

    Checking out her new big enclosure

    Looks good, never had an animal use its enclosure quite as much as a cham, they love the space.

    Multivitamin?

    Its quite the conundrum considering I don't take them myself because I believe they are ineffective. :D If you have some time browse google scholar, found this on dietary d3 effectiveness in growing bearded dragons. http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1096495910000540...

    Multivitamin?

    If you have scurvy a multi vitamin with vit c is going to help I don't care what these studies say. I assume that's the kinda thing giving the muti vit is for, in my case once every two weeks. You hit any nutritional gaps you could be missing in your regular feedings.

    Good for baby Veiled ?

    Really depends on if you keep it on the screen and how far from the basking area it is. I would just go with trial and error with a few different bulbs, like I said if you buy them from a dollar store or similar they are cheap cheap cheap. I am using a 15w bulb to get low 80s for my female...

    Good for baby Veiled ?

    Is this a package deal, can you swap bulbs? The 100w is overkill by a huge margin unless he is basking outside in the winter in Canada. Also go to a dollar store and pick up a soft white incandescent bulb for heat. You don't need a fancy basking bulb. Also I say soft white because clear bulbs...

    Another rant about petco

    I'm no fan of big box stores of any kind, from the wal marts to the petsmarts. The pet industry needs to be revamped IMO, it shouldn't be as simple as dropping some cash and walking out with a living creature. Unfortunately not everyone sees life equally and has no issue replacing their ill...

    Whats the price on one of those, that reminds me more of a marine reef fish with the crazy metallic blue spots.
