I have 4, 2 males and 2 females, the males are brothers and the females are sisters from 2 different clutches

Wow, jumping into the chameleon world with 4? Are you planning on breeding?

 

[salty dog]

I'll probably breed eventually, I'm building all their cages custom and put only live plants in, they are much happier with live plants, I'm expirementing with bee pollen crushed to a powder and dusting feeders, hope it sticks, I will find out very very soon

Just make sure to thoroughly research for months and prepare for every possible situation in advance. Make sure your husbandry is 100%, you have TONS of feeders, space, and money set aside, you have adopters, etc. I personally wouldn’t recommend breeding to a first time owner. How are you experimenting with bee pollen?

 

[salty dog]

There names are - males clove and sage, females are ginger and poppy...... the bee pollen didn't work... maybe I didn't crush it fine enough, I'm using a stone crusher

What are you trying to do with the bee pollen?

 

[salty dog]

I observe alot!!! Read lots!! And yes have lots of feeders, don't have alot of money, but it's not a problem, space is not a problem,

 

[ERKleRose]

LLL Reptile sells bee pollen already crushed if you want to use that instead

 

[salty dog]

Bee pollen use it to dust feeders, so far didn't work

Was it not ground fine enough?

Curious about the viny orchids. Would they grow well in a full screen enclosure?

 

[salty dog]

Yes, vanilla and hoyas, also pendulous dendrobiums, anosumum and parishii are very strong and grow fast, holger perner was doing a human cancer study with dendrobiums said it stops cancer, then he died of a heart attack also I have a jewel orchid going i to bloom on the bottom

 

[KRGEE21]

Thank you for the info. I'll check them out.

 

[salty dog]

I was in a hurry didn't grind it fine enough, hopefully!!! Dendrobium anosumum and parishii require a cool dry period to bloom, but under perpetual spring time it grows and grows and grows, very nicely and pendulous, and very strong!!

 

[salty dog]

Doctor holger perner died before his dendrobium info got published I think, I talked to him and his wife wenging when they were here in the states, great great people, his death was a loss to the world!!!

As I am servant to a quad the enclosure is kept in the low to mid 70's(F). Would this be an optimal temperature for the species you mentioned above?
Just a suggestion on the bee pollen. I use it as an add to my gut load. For the dubais I put a little of it on the bug burger. Crickets seem to go for it it I make a little ball out of it, and put it in their tank.
