I am going to place all three in corners. My idea is to create a humidity/moisture/temperature gradient across the cage. One side will have three nozzles (the double and a single) and there will be another single nozzle on the other end of the cage. The side of the cage that has the heat lamp...
I love your setup. I've been thinking about a system like yours and am totally going to steal your idea now. I've got a MistKing and Arcadia lighting, and a large clear side atrium on the way.
You know, it may be the Panther keeper in me, but the color is screaming SHE.
Shoot us some close up pictures of its eyes, the back of its back legs, and the base of its tail. Also, it really helps to fill out the form that I will link to in the next comment. It gives everyone a standard...
As requested, pics! His colors are exploding! He's doing this BLOOD RED bars thing, combined with pastel blues, oranges, and greens.
He was really funny today. He agreed to come out of the cage when I was cleaning it, BUT REFUSED to go back in his cage after it was cleaned. I walked him around...
They were exposed to mold for a maximum of 24 hours (assuming the mold took 24 hours to grow). I was at work for 48 hours and placed the (apparently still damp) substrate the morning that I left for work. I cleaned the cage out and isolated the roaches as soon as I noticed the mold.
Sounds...
Lesson learned. I won't be using any substrate from now on either. I was attempting to find a way to deal with all the frass (these things poop like a duck eating applesauce!), but I'll take shaking crap out over dealing with mold any day.
I'm still waiting to hear from someone about how safe...
Hey y'all. I used some cocoa fiber in my roach box, went to work, and apparently the fiber was still damp, because there was a fine white mold with long strands that looked like hair all over the substrate. I cleaned out the cage, and found that none of the roaches were killed. They're all...
Ladies and gentlemen, we have some good Developments. First of all, my Cham now has a name!
We decided that because he has a bit of a temper and likes to guard his home, we shall call him SMAUG. I think the name is fitting. He loves to eat hobbits. I mean crickets.
I have taken delivery of a...
That's awesome! I'm still going back and forth. I got the last supplies for the MistKing today, I'll be running two single nozzles and one double nozzle because the cage is so huge. I figure I'll put the double and a single on one side in opposing corners and another single on the other side of...
She looks good to me. Very cute girl by the way. I LOVE the "The Land Before Time" reference. She indeed looks like a Ducky! "TREE STARS!!!!" Very Sad about what happened to Judith Barsi.
No problemo, did what I describe look like what he was doing? The good thing is that it isn't a constant issue. The part about him doing it, then it going back to normal, and the whole red thing that looked like blood, really makes me think that's the dealio. If the problem is persistent and he...
While I cannot say for sure that it is nothing, I have noticed that my Panther Cham does some funny stuff with his eyes when cleaning them. He puffs them out and pulls them in, and I have caught a glimpse of what looks like red (blood red) ocular muscle inside of the hole that his pupil is...
I was thinking about ways to use the foam to make a cool living wall without imbedding pots today, I guess i will have to give it more thought.
@Peachypink, that's exactly what Bill Strand was doing in his blog. I figured I would do the same if I ended up going that route.
Hey guys. I wanted to start a discussion, as I couldn't find a thread that hit on the question I was asking myself.
Here's the rub: I have a dragon strand large clear side atrium on order and have been planning out my setup. I have a MistKing, built a stand, and will be installing an active...
I have the large clear side atrium and drip tray on order. Should be shipping any day now. I will let you know my first impressions after I put it together. I will be drilling a hole in the bottom for plumbing into a bucket and running a MistKing. I built a custom stand for the whole thing.
Welcome! I am not expert but perhaps I can help a little. I have a Panther chameleon and enjoy doing online research and Improving my care.
For the size of the enclosure, if that figure is in inches, then you have no need to upgrade the size of your viv. if that figure is in centimeters, then...
