Wow, after reading all this great info I have to ask. Are Chameleons really that fragile and hard to keep alive? If so how can they last out in the wild. Has captivity and captive breeding made them more sickly like animals in the Zoo. I guess if I'm to start with this new hobby I need to get a...
don't see 4 months being old. Sorry I started it backup, but when anyone runs a search the later threads do show. Theres allot of info in old threads. I always feel its better to add to a old thread than start a new one, less threads to clog up the works.
not using a fine grinder, one of those hand held Rival 2 blade blenders, it does'nt grind anything to a powder. The shells pieces are probably 2-3 times bigger than a grain of sand.
Also I been feeding them that mixture for about a month with no problem. It all at once started dying. I clean...
Sorry for your loss. I have never had any reptile and thought about getting a Chameleon. I have been doing research about Chameleons for the past month or so and I didn't realize what goes into keeping one as a pet until I read this thread. I found this thread cause in the last week my...

I am new, searched the net and found no info on this subject. I was wondering if its safe to reuse dried up water crystals after my crickets drink up all the water.
500 for $30, thats $3 for 50. At most bait shops thats around what they sell them for. Might look around for one. Most the more you buy the cheaper they get, mine is $5 for 100.
crickets climb the screened walls
Sorry for posting to an old thread but I searched the net and this thread came up. New to this forum and raising crickets, I like OP's idea but wondering how he'll keep them from jumping or climbing out when he takes the lid off. I lined my container with clear...
