This is awesome! I put a large pothos in the very center of Spikes enclosure, then I put smaller ones around the outside. The big one is INSANE now and goes all over the enclosure. Some of the smaller ones have gotten really big as well. Instead of trimming, I've been actually redirecting...

Yes but I am assuming you live in the US. IDK if that is really comparable. But I honestly have no idea, personally 🙃

I would also like to point out that sand is VERY problematic when it comes to bacteria. Feeding your chameleon something that hangs out in sand locally sounds like a death sentence to a chameleon to me personally.

I would refrain from doing this. Do you use ANY chemicals in your garden? How close are you to your neighbors? Do they use ANY chemicals in theirs? Bugs travel. Aside from the bacteria and parasites already mentioned, IMO, this is way too risky to be worth it. I buy all my feeders...

Spike definitely plays with the spray nozzles just to mess with me while I'm at work 😤:ROFLMAO:

Opps. Accidentally uploaded two of the same pictures 🤣 meant to post this one

I agree with you there. The Lions specifically preying is difficult to watch.

oh I don't. If there are 20 flies, I let them all into the enclosure and let them go nuts. Everyone's situation might not be the same as mine, but Spike doesn't seem to overeat. He will literally live with the BSF flying around / sitting around on leaves until he's ready to eat them...

See I am an idiot. I LOVE watching Animal Planet. I love nature and all it has to offer. But I am such a softy for those poor animals that it still upsets me. I understand it. It's nature. But I'm right with you with the poor animals that end up as food. But..........I can't help myself...

I love when this happens and so does Spike. He has a field day on these days lol I release them before he wakes up in the morning and then it's like they're just naturally hanging out on leaves.

seriously my heart sank lmao but I get it. Nature is gonna nature.

With all due respect to nature, I hope that monkey has diarrhea for a week after eating that poor chameleon :ROFLMAO:

Thank you! I'll always be grateful. I am very sure that I would not have even attempted another chameleon if it weren't for your guidance.

Awesome! Sorry your chameleon had parasites, but at least you know what's going on and how to treat it. Hope this takes care of it! I wish I had a real reptile vet near me 😐

***EDIT: Looks like I was late to this party, so disregard lol. However, I would like to leave my story up so people can have an idea of the possibilities of a bad vet experience with chameleons.*** All I see is a dragon. And as others have cautioned already: Be WARY of what the vet says...

Sometimes you just gotta chill on some leaves

Happy Hatch Month Beman!!!! If it weren't for Beman I wouldn't even have Spike today.... :love:

I think this comes down to what's actually better for you to prepare. They're both highly effective and work just fine. I personally freeze because it allows for the 'least maintenance' while doing a great job of gutloading. We rarely have to make it because we make a bunch of food. It's...
