I had a all white maline cage. Mr cham would poop. Goldfish.exe. Then the next day shoot tongue at it thinking its a feeder...

Yea it might be confusing for the cham, since our reptile bulbs use a single uvb phosphor that is tuned for the bone growth section of the spectrum that is deep tissue. The cham might get confused if they are only tuned to seek out the higher uv spectrum that affects mostly just the surface of...

With the beam thing, im talking like a very narrow throw led flash light, that puts out uvi 15 at 5-8" from the screen, it doesnt disperse much, and puts out little to no heat. In your case yes the working area is the same, but the cham toes is getting very close to a several watt per inch...

Honestly at this point im not sure what we are discussing :) If we wanted to mimic perfect chameleon land, we would end up with chams eating the least nutritious flying bugs and 95% of them dying off after six months during the dry season. And if that doesnt take them out, yemen has plenty of...

Bathtub scale. If it doesnt break in 100 hours, its high odds its not going to break in 2000 hours. And after 100 hours, its UVI is going to be settled and be reliable for 2000 hours. Hell back in the day when we had plasma tvs' we would put them on white eye bleed mode for 100 hours just to...

Cries in 90's vita-lites that put out .2 UVI and that was considered high.

Also chams generally only sun bath for 10-20min in the early morning and evening. And guess what those numbers are :P

So evidently this genius decided to come out during the two warm days here. And some other genius picked him up and brought him to me "because the rear legs dont work"(they work fine once you bring him in the house for a few hours vs 40 degee day). I cant really put him back since there ant no...

i empty the cup/bowl/tuppaware back into the bin before bed. feeders could be dead, or eat each other overnight, or the chirping starts... If your little one eats one bad dead cricket he may puke it up, it may sour his taste for them and start a feeder strike.

You can raise perfect good feeders on the worst chow possible. You just have to clear the gut and then load up on the non corn/soy/brewers yeast a week before their untimely (or timed?) demise. A bug raised on crap is going to be just a nutritious as one raise on fresh organic bla bla, if both...

I do not know if the kelp meal, spirulina algae would or would not cause it. That would be "food" and not a chemical vitamin. Im not good with food based supplements like bee pollen to say you can over do it. Kelp meal is a rich and dependable source of 60 minerals and elements including...

"Should I cut back supplements? I started repashy with A and D3 twice a month instead of once because he gets less sun since it’s winter." At minimum they doubled the monthly dosage recently. Every cham is a different, they can go 5 years on the same sched and then end up with edema and need...

My goto for edema is remove all vitamin/mineral supplements for 30 days and see if it goes away. Only give them calcium without D3. 9 out of 10 times its due to a build up of fat soluble vitamin. Vitamins A, D, E, and K are the fat-soluble vitamins

What keeps my crickets alive is airflow airflow airflow. All my bins have at least 2 full sides of heavy guage screen, other than the pin heads. If you dont have enough airflow, they will literally fart themselves to death from not getting the poop gases out.

I have well water. Its just softened and ran through at 2 stage filter. No RO or DI. I never had clogs. Do get the white powder on the leaves though.

Your doing it all wrong... Get a tarantula setup with coco fiber. Keep it moist Put in hand full of crickets tarantula.exe not found crickets fall in love sea of pinheads a few weeks later rescue annoyed tarantula Also excuse to post snowball pics

Im curious what a canned one looks like. I mean ive seen dead ones that are only a few hours post mortem, they look like deflated flat tires.

The issue is if 100% crickets is a healthy diet, that is perfectly fine. The issue is when hunger strikes start, now you have nothing to fall back on. I just do feeder cups with a trail mix of feeders and hope for some misses. Its pretty common for juveniles to only each just crickets. And by...

D3 is at least every 2 weeks for a growing cham. And its still every 2 weeks for vitamins. This is somewhat dependent on the cham. Some get over supplemented and get edema from too many fat soluble vitamins.
