Welcome back! I was here 15 years ago, but am still much more of a lurker than a poster. What kinds of endangered animals did you release during your zoo work?
Congrats on it blooming! A word to the wise, don't ever plant it outside of a pot, it will TAKE OVER!!! My darling hubby decided my butterfly garden needed some snake plants. After about a year where they got out of control I yelled at him and he took them out. And they are still coming...
We've been keeping for a little over a year and have harvested honey twice. However we're in FL, so our nectar flows are a little different. We have another super that can be spun, probably next week, and we're guessing it will yield about 15-20 lbs. And we have Brazillian peppers (which are...
Completely aside from husbandry, 16 months is about the age where he's going to be looking for a lady friend, so that could also contribute to his restlessness. I'd address the other concerns here first but it's something to keep in mind. Good luck!
I'm a bee-keeper also and when I first realized that wax moths in the hives were THOSE wax moths I was excited, but wouldn't feed them for your reasons exactly. Also, bees travel up to 2 miles to find food sources so there's no way to know if all those people are abstaining from pesticides.
Such an achievement, and when I think of the advancements that have come about in the past 20 years I have great hope for the future and how much further we can all take this fantastic hobby. Brad is amazing, as is his team keeping this whole forum humming along and being so welcoming to...
Can't believe it's been 5 years, but your progression pics are fantastic, and yet another great tool you are using to help the chameleons in our community. Happy Hatchday Beman and just remember, 5 is the new 3 ;)
He was just re-homed to me in April, and that's what they had named him. He came from a friend of mine who didn't think she was up to taking care of a chameleon, but she did request I keep his name. My other guy is Turk - also re-homed and I kept his name because I loved watching Scrubs. My...
Here's my cage. There are 4 pots - 3 with pothos, and a wandering jew on the right. In the front is a money tree. My male veiled Reggie is to the right, heading to his basking light.
I use 4-5 pots along the sides and back and have 1 big plant on the ground in the front. I put the pots 1/2 way up the cage so that they can be watered with the mister and have room to grow up. I'll try to take a pic of my cage now that the lights are on.
I can tell you from experience, use the bigger pots and forget about 4". I use 8" plastic pots, and sealed them in, and then I slide my pots the same size that are potted with plants into the "holder" pots. The expanding foam will hold everything in place, and what I found is that the smaller...
