I’m not sure, mine is a T5 HIgh output linear fluorescent bulb from lightyourreptiles.com 6500k daylight white.

I added a second T5 24" fixture with a standard 6500k daylight bulb and another dome lamp...

I live in an extremely dry climate so my scheffelera gets a ton of water since my mist king goes off every few hours to keep humidity up for my Cham. At first it wasn’t doing well but once I added both a 6500k T5 daylight bulb and a Sansi LED grow bulb in addition to my UVB lighting; it improved...

Merry Christmas and happy holidays Chamily! I hope everyone has a great day.

Can you order silk eggs? They’re easy to hatch and raise.

My grandpa considered two career options after being a bomber pilot in WWII; commercial airline pilot or selling fishing bait from his backyard. He went with the latter and I spent many days playing with mud skippers at his house as a kid. Apparently they make excellent bait; his whole business...

Perfect, thank you so much!

I was in Florida last spring to visit the Everglades and Dry Tortugas and there were hoppers everywhere. So they are still in parts of Florida for sure. I’m in Colorado and there is an open meadow near me that I would go to after work with a net and pop up bug container to catch a bunch last...

Love seeing everyone’s pics! Here’s mine, I’m Robin.

I don’t, I’m feeding him medium-sized ones not large. He seems fine with them. Do you remove the hind legs? I really don’t want to. Grasshoppers are super cute, I’m not sure I could do it. I already tell them I’m sorry as I toss them in his cage. They don’t last long in there, it’s over for them...

So I don’t think they are currently available to order online in the U. S. I started my colony breeding wild caught individuals. Here’s a chart I found about nutritional content of feeder insects (bottom of page). https://www.reptifiles.com/feeder-insect-nutrition-facts-chart/ Hoppers look...

Wet bug burger.

Did you ever see them lying eggs in the sand? They stick half their abdomen in little holes they dig. I waited 3 weeks and then dug up the egg cases, put them in fresh damp sand in Tupperware and then in the fridge for diapause. Bummer only one differential! I think that’s what all my babies...

Ok, thanks guys! Definitely going to try growing some wheat grass. I have rye and barley that just sprouted. Another question, I currently have three different ages of hoppers with a fourth round due to hatch soon. Can I combine different sizes together? I don’t really want 3-4 different...

OK, thanks for the tip. I think I have some super load so I'll try that instead. thanks!

Hi! So, I've been feeding my CB hoppers a variety of organic greens from the store (mustard greens, turnip greens, kale, and romaine) and they are growing well on it but is this enough? They won't gutload on bug burger or the like. Is this a problem for when I feed them off to my Cham? I know...

James, thanks for the info, what kind of protein are you feeding them? I tried putting bug burger in with them and they ignored it.

I have croton and Arrowhead vine in with them and while they thoroughly enjoying cruising all over them, they haven't taken so much as a bite out of either.

Cool setup! You have so many, that's crazy! I didn't know they grew so slowly.
