Ok, Karma has only been fed crickets until we got her. :mad: Needless to say, due to this board we have changed that. This weekend we bought 4 doz. superworms so we can try our hand at raising them plus she can have some to eat. And give her variety. She ate a couple on Sat. after we got...

He is too cute! What a great day to hatch too!

I just got it set up as well!

I like that idea! Hubby tore ours into sections of 4 cups and then the food dish and 4 tubes..... makes it hard to get in there to clean. Hmmm, maybe remove the tubes and switch to single cups.....

We are getting the reptisun 5.0 UV tube and a new hood for it. Then we are adding a basking lamp and will mount it from the wall over the cage. Hubby will install a plant hanging bracket for it. Then we can add chain and raise and lower it if needed. She has several basking areas on the...

Cool! I have a ficus she came with, its small but ok. She is getting a larger cage. She was(still is until tom.) in an 18 x 18 x 32 plexi POS and we bought her a 24 x 24 x 48 aluminum mesh from LLL. We plan on adding a couple of pothos and either a larger ficus or a schefflera, depending...

Karma's new mesh cage should be here tomorrow! We will be transferring her climbing branch, adding lots of plants and vines and basically making her a WAY more cham friendly enclosure! Can you add too much? I know right now, she has not enough. She gets around ok but I think more plants...

We bought one of those cricket keeper things. We can go to petstore weekly on weekends to get more. We bought like 50 last weekend and that is WAY too many, esp. when we are going to start using superworms as well. We have 1 cham and 1 baby pacman frog. I am thinking that we need to take...

Well, that was fun..... I got 3 small ones out and tossed them in his cage to see. My question is..... WTH looks like a giant cricket and has wings, pale ones? We have one of those cricket keeper things and after 5 min. of trying to chase small ones around the bottom, over egg cartons...

Ok, we got Karma medium crickets and they are pretty varied in size. Could I pick out a few of the smaller ones and toss those in Hugos cage to see if he will eat it?

I found some raising superworm sites! They seem about the same as mealworms! Thanks Syn for your post with a site as well! I am going to order some and try it! Or will get some at the Reptile place. They list carrying them on their site. Probably would be cheaper to get them that way..... Hubby...

Do superworms have the same life cycle as mealworms then? Do you raise them the same way...? I gotta get a bigger house!LOL I do daycare and have 3 little boys. Plus I homeschool my own 2 boys. We have a earthworm tank where we watch food turn into soil via the earthworms. We have Hugo...

Awwwww, how cute is he! ITA, he looks so soft! Glad he arrived!

Thanks! I guess that answers that! I know she likes wax worms, but they are junkfood. I am raising mealworms, partly for the lifecycle viewing with the daycare kids and my own, plus for my pacman frog and now Karma. I will get some fresh ones from the store this weekend of mealworms and see...

Ok, when we are working out in the yard....if we find an earthworm, my kids rush to feed it to the chickens as a treat! Can we feed earthworms to our chameleons? My garden is all organic, no pesticides used on it at all so the worms should be organic as well. I know these are not all the...

It is amazing what you can learn daily with your chameleon, esp. if this is new territory for you!LOL Karma does NOT like to be fed early in the morning. She gave me dirty looks when I offered her crickets at 8:30am. But, now at 10am she ate fine! I do not think she likes the calcium...

I have to agree, Karma gets this gorgeous creamy green all over and she looks so peaceful and cute with her eyes closed and she is just out for the count! Reminds me of watching my boys sleep when they were babies, except they didnt turn a pretty green!LOL

Ok good! Hubby keeps asking me if something is wrong with him because he hasnt really grown. But, I tidied up his cage today and checked him over. He is fat and seems happy. I thought something was wrong with an eye, hence the heavy-duty checkup BUT.... it was just because he is albino and the...

Wondering if anyone on the board has a pacman frog? If so, I would like to pick your brains! I have Hugo, we have had him almost 2 months. He is an albino and while fat and seemingly happy, he doesnt seem to be growing. He is still about the size of a quarter which is what he was when we got...

Order has been placed and should be here by Friday via Fed Ex! YIPPEEEE Ok, would it be wrong to list her current plexi enclosure and old lights on CL once we are all done? I wouldnt want a lot but it seems dumb to keep it since its NOT what is correct for her. If yes, should I post it as a...
