If I recall, roach vendors need to get special permits to breed and sell and you are able to get discoid (very similar to dubia) and Surinam too I think. I’m in what is probably the roach capitol of the US, Florida, and strangely certain roaches are banned here, like dubia. 🤷‍♀️ Discoid are...

If you’re fortunate, you can find small enough hornworms at a pet store or on line. Hornworms grow super fast…like overnight! Always go smaller than you need with them and get just enough for a couple of days. You can try to slow down their growth by putting them in the fridge overnight, but...

A solarmeter 6.5 is best to test output. They are a bit pricey. I have a lot of reptiles, so it basically pays for itself in that I only replace my uvb bulbs when needed instead of on a schedule. I had completely forgotten to link the uvb video. Doh! :rolleyes: Here it is.

Hi. By any chance does the home which you’re moving to in Florida have a screened lanai? If so, that would be a fantastic place to get some large schefflera, hibiscus or even a small tree, like a lemon tree, to make an awesome free range area where he can get some natural uvb. If there’s by...

Have you checked carefully in his enclosure and substrate for unwanted pests? Any new plants or branches recently? Do you wash your plants and toss the old soil before using? I see a lot of artificial plants - have those been washed before use? Are they specifically made for reptiles or did you...

Hi. I’m afraid the correct uvb is something that really should never wait. The compact bulbs have no output beyond just a few inches and then the level is awful - goes from higher than anywhere on earth to nothing within an inch or so. This is a great one to get (you want 6% strength)and a great...

I’m so sorry. 🥺What a beautiful species of bird. I love that you’ve prioritized their space and well being and sounds like he had the best life with you. Hopefully your little female will adjust well and maybe she’ll become a little more daring. (((💗)))

I’m not sure who has been getting their grasshoppers from where. As far as I know, we only have had two sources of https://dragonhoppers.com/ and Kai Phan on Facebook, and he was out of business for a long time due to health issues. I just wanted to pass the word that Kai Phan has recovered and...

Thanks chamily for your caring and kind words. It helps more than you know. 💗 💗 💗

Hi. Odd for a male to be digging. I believe the few times I’ve heard of it, is when it’s suspected that he is trying to escape his enclosure. Showing his stress colors and being more hissy, I have to ask if anything recently has changed in his environment. Have you hung or moved anything on the...

Cage Info: Cage Type - Describe your cage (Glass, Screen, Combo?) What are the dimensions? XL breeze with three sides window plastic sealed. The bottom is raised 3" with PVC pipe so I can fit my hand under to clean. I also caulked the bottom rim of the cage because bugs were getting in there...

My replies will be in bold and for convenience, I’ll split this into two parts. Your Chameleon - The species, sex, and age of your chameleon. How long has it been in your care? Vailed female 4-5 months. I got her February 1 from a local pet store. A local cham breeder who bought her siblings...

Hi and welcome to you and your adorable Littlefoot! :) Give me a bit and I’ll go over all of your info and questions.

Thank you. Very sadly, my sweet little Tandy passed away last night. https://www.chameleonforums.com/threads/rest-easy-sweet-tandy-💔🦎🌺.194619/#post-1822050 🥺 I just love the girl panthers and veileds. Not as flashy as the boys, but just as beautiful. 💗

Last night my leopard gecko Tandy passed away as I held her on my chest. Once again, my heart has broken. She had been sleeping on the cool side and not under a hide and refused to eat yesterday. While she always went thru periods of having a picky appetite, holding out until I would offer the...
