    getting worried, and losing my confidence

    lol... i have one, on sale at Canadian tire a few weeks ago. 29$ instead of 99! i never thought to measure their skin temp though. What should that be? i do love it. lets me easily check temp in different areas. Can walk through house and quickly check temps on all my critters.:D

    getting worried, and losing my confidence

    Thanks! so no one has had problems with the screens wearing through? that's what i was worried about if there's pressure on those little wires of the screen if they would eventually break?

    getting worried, and losing my confidence

    he is definitely very active. Circles his home continuously. I'm getting really concerned now, because in order to try to get the temps up, i put the heat lamp directly on the screen and he's continuously climbing around the screen and upside down across the top. i'm terrified of him getting...

    How do you

    attatch fake plants and hold up vines etc in a screen enclosure? I'm used to glass aquariums where you can use suction cups, hot glue etc... How do you hang up a fake plant or keep a bendy fine in place? I've used pictuer wire, inserted through the screen holes and then fastened around at the...

    getting worried, and losing my confidence

    maybe i'm just overly worried. he only ate one cricket yesterday. i was told by his breeder that he eats about 8. He has never eaten that much for me. i have not seen him drink in a week. urates looking yellowish, isn't that a sign that they're getting dehydrated? There is no sustrate in...

    misting and drinking

    okay... i set up a dripper, although everytime i think i have it set just right it seems to stop on me. i am warming the water before misting. and am misting 4 times a day. Still have not seen him drink. So, if i put a drop on his nose, he may lick it off? poo still looks okay, but i would...

    misting and drinking

    thanks... yes, i wasn't too worried esp iff he's eatin i figure he's drinking too. Was just wondering about him practically running from the water. i don't really spray him directly, but since he's small no and in a small enclosure he does get a few sprinkle on him. i'll try warming the...
