    cricket keeping

    I bought 25 dubia's over three weeks ago and haven't properly set them up yet. They've been in a small container with a screen top. While I don't like the idea of them it's really about the cham so I can manage through it. Tomorrow a heat pad, tongs, and dark container is on the agenda. They...

    Ahhhhh so happy!!!

    Looks really good. Yeah those 5.0's are nice. I ended up getting a zilla and my breeder basically said those were trash so my out of pocket ended up being $100...$30 for the zilla and about $70 for the new fixture and 5.0. My out of pocket on my first cham is probably at around $800 and...

    Cham eating rocks..

    It's working out quite nice. He still visits the area but becomes quickly disinterested. When I'm within range all he wants is to come out so he'll move away from the rocks if I catch him down there. I was initially horrified when I noticed he ate a big mouthful of dirt but he pooped it out...

    My Review of DIYcages.com (2014)

    Overall looks like a nice cage...I'm liking the aluminum finish. I built a custom corner stand for my cresties then decided to add a cham to add to the showcase so looks like I'll be building a whole new stand to accommodate a larger cage and plumbing. At least I can recycle the wood for the...

    My Review of DIYcages.com (2014)

    My Reptibreeze came with a broken pin on the lower door. I ended up using a small drill bit to remove the plastic plug in the frame where it broke off and made the the hole larger with a drill bit to fit a dowel. I did it slow and made the hole larger one drill bit at a time until I got a...

    Snapped some pictures of the little guy this morning. Went to feed him and he decided he wanted to explore. After about 15 minutes of playing the in-out game he settled in for breakfast. I like the first picture of him hanging out in the Sharks Territory...go little hockey fan, lol.

    Best place to purchase panther chameleons

    I just purchased my first cham from Chameleon Paradise. My guy is 7.5 months old and was super sociable with me from day one. When I open the cage he comes to me without coaxing. He also ate from my hand on day one. So for those that say you are less likely to get a super friendly cham from...

    Cham eating rocks..

    Sorry if I created any misunderstandings. I really wanted to convey that one of the important things I've learned from this forum is find creativity in problems and share how I am working around a behavior that is undesirable and create an environment I can feel is cham safe. I took the...

    Cham eating rocks..

    I know this is old thread, but having my 7.5 month old panther for a few days I noticed he is a dirt eater and rock chewer. I'm so paranoid that I put weed barrier over the dirt, screen on top of that, kept the huge river rocks in, removed the smaller rocks, even though they are bigger than his...

    Thanks. I've read the care section and continue to go back and read and re-read. I feel super fortunate this morning, he is not a shy drinker by any means. Today he free range ate like it was hunting season. A couple crickets were easy catches...and one he just did a mad dash for and feasted...

    Hi All. I'm excited to be a soon to be new owner of a panther. Even after 2 months of general web browsing and gathering information, I still managed to get it wrong, ha! Thankfully I was able t connect with Bruce from Chameleon Paradise, who is very nice and took time to point out flaws in...
