    Silkworm Frustrations....

    I bought one of those cheap "Reptibators" to hatch them in. My first attempt was a bit like your description: out of 500 eggs I got maybe 100 survivors. After switching to more frequent feedings with smaller portions -- the idea being to make sure the food is always fresh and not dried out --...

    Veiled Cham climbing screen

    Maybe he wants out? When Hilts wants out I usually find him lurking or pacing on the bottom, Jedi mind-tricking me to open the door. And sometimes I look over and see this: Hilts by ispeedonthe405 posted Apr 17, 2016 at 1:22 PM

    Age of veiled chameleon?

    Are you confident he is a he? I can't see the back feet in that pic. You're looking for little spurs on the back of the back feet.

    What the heck is this???

    You can buy more of them to keep your bug bins cleaner. I know it seems like putting a fire out with more fire, but it works. You'll often find them listed as "cleaner crew", as mentioned above.

    WHERE CAN I GET SILKWORMS! ! !

    Yeah, the Coastal web site is a little dorky. When it asks you which coast, click the "Gee, I don't know what coast I live on" option and you should see the accurate stock listing. I just checked and they're available now.

    Veiled Cham climbing screen

    Probably not. My 15 month old, 290-gram panther boy sometimes still climbs up the walls. I lined the interior with plastic grid garden fencing, which is dirt cheap at a garden center (Lowes or Home Depot will have it) and a better gripping surface than the bare screen.

    UVB Lighting

    Measuring with my Solarmeter, a single 48" T5 12% Arcadia on top of a 60"H cage gives me single-digit UV penetration down to the floor level. In fact, I had to raise the lamp a few inches to keep exposure at the top to less than 50 microwatts / cm^2. Two such bulbs is probably a bit much. The UV...
