It's not every day I am able to take Foley out without chasing him around the cage until I finally corner him. This time I caught him crawling on the screen door and swooped in and grabbed him. He just shed a couple days ago and his colors are so vibrant now! He stayed calm and nice and green...

I recently purchased a set up and new baby veiled chameleon in the last couple months. When deciding to build your own cage or purchasing one, it really depends on your tools and time available to spend building the enclosure. If someone has no tools, then it can get pricey to build one. It also...

They sell 50' rolls? How much are those going for these days?

Yeah I purchased 500 larvae and received 495 pupae. I was told the pupae can live in the fridge for 3 weeks as pupae.

It really is a horrible tragedy. But suggesting implementation of stricter gun laws will some how prevent these relatively rare occurrences is absurd. People who want to hurt others will find weapons to commit crimes. Criminals do not obey laws, so how can one suggest that laws will curb...

10 years ago I had a veiled chameleon and did not discover the vast knowledge of this forum at that time (if there even was a forum then). I did not know about the importance of supplements then. My boy had MBD then too... he had a weak grip, bowed legs, and hung around at the bottom of my...

I see... by the picture I assumed that it was a water softener system, as it looks identical to what I have now. You mention they are wasteful... is it the salt they are wasting?

I have a cousin that sells water softeners for a living. He hooked up our house with a 3 way water softener system at our house several years ago. Do you guys use Na or K for the filtration system? Years ago the K was a dollar or two more than Na, but these days it has skyrocketed in price...

If you have a Reptibreeze or Zilla cage, you can simply tilt the cage to one corner and the water will run out. I had mine at the end of a table so the corner hung over a bucket and the water drained out. In addition, I drilled a hole about 1 " in diameter at that corner. I then placed one...

I would like to hear the advice others give you as well. My 4 month old veiled ignored them after I had bought 250 of them. Eventually they all died. He did not seem interested in them because they did not move much after I put them on a branch.

Yeah the manager from Rainbow saw those photos and said it was a mix of the Jamaican and other black crickets. I am trying to find a good alternative feeder. I tried silkies but my 4 month old veiled ignored them and they eventually all died. I had lobster roaches but they would just hide...

Thanks for the reply! Gosh I really was freakin' out just getting them out of the box! You would think they are bullet ants or something lol. My main concern about them is the difference in behavior! Yeah they might not jump as high as the banded, but they also have just been hanging...

Hey camimom, I forgot to mention that I checked out ReptileFood excited about the prices you mentioned, but they wanted to charge me 18 bucks for overnight shipping. I guess you live much closer to them than I do! That would put them at nearly 30 bucks for 500 crickets.

I am always on the look for cheap deals on crickets. So far I have picked up local banded crickets for $7 for 100. I also bought 1000 small banded crickets from Mulberry Farms. Today I picked up 500 medium from Rainbow Farms (local) and paid only $10.50 for them. I just created another post with...
