I have no clue how to set my ST 24 timer to go off 3 times a day or so. I ordered my mistking around March or last year, the company forgot to give me the nozzles so I emailed them and they gave me a second timer (which didn't help anything at all). Today I stumbled across my second timer and...

The reptibreeze is all screen so you may have a difficult time maintaining a good humidity percentage so you should go with real plants instead of fake. I attached my branches to my screen cage by using tacks on each end and used wire to suspend my plants inside. You don't really plant real...

When I had a screen cage I would just place dubias on the screen and Bort would eat them instantly. Now I've tried hand feeding him roaches (because of his new enclosure) and he eats them just the same. I don't necessarily like the feeling of a roach ( or roaches) crawling around my hand but I...

Is this a joke? I really can't tell if you're being serious or not by the way you've explained things. However it sounds like you may not have researched them before you actually got them. Do you know what species they are? Do you have any pictures you could show us?

My panther had got hooked on super worms once and would pay no attention to the other feeders I had. I just stopped feeding him supers as often and put my crickets or roaches in as usual, if he didn't eat them then oh well. Maybe a day and a half passed until he got hungry enough to eat other...

Thanks! Yeah I'll be going out and buying more foliage later today as well as disinfecting branches so hopefully it'll look even better

I've been turning a liquor hutch into Bort's new enclosure and I finally finished it today! I have pothos and lipstick plants inside but they obviously need to grow out more so I might buy some fake plants until they grow in. Also may have to get a stronger basking bulb as I have only seen a...

Busy building a new enclosure

This summer I'm going to catch a lot of grasshoppers in my field. I was wondering what the proper set up would be to breed them since I only want him eating captive bred feeders? Also how long would it take for them to mature?

I've heard to search for your Cham at night with a flashlight as they turn brighter colors when sleeping

I would love to see him hunt, but there's no picture! Haha however when I feed my Cham dubias, I make sure they're a little smaller than the space between his eyes.

Yeah no problem! The great thing about the lipstick plant is that it thrives in 70-80 degree temps

I'm lovin your enclosure! I'm just curious but what is your drainage system like?

I have a panther and he does fine with it, just crawls up and down the vines without a problem. I had looked on the forum for a list of safe plants also, this is the link. https://www.chameleonforums.com/threads/plant-list-part-2-k-z.119009/

I have 3 lipstick plants in my enclosure and they all are thriving and grow fairly quick. I have one on the bottom of my enclosure that doesn't see a lot of light but it still grows like crazy.

Also for a template, you could just alternate between crickets and silkworms (crickets one day, silkworms another). When my Cham was 4 months old he ate around 9-12 crickets a day if I remember correctly.

You shouldn't feed him mealworms, they're pretty low in nutrition and could cause constipation due to the chitin. I would have crickets and silkworms be the main staple for food and hornworms as a treat

Just curious if there's anyone close to Portland, Oregon who owns a Cham.

I'm turning a liquor hutch into an enclosure for my panther chameleon (Bort). However I'm curious whether or not to keep the glass fronts (they are removable) since it is getting very cold here in Oregon (well below freezing). I'll include a picture.

Thank you everyone for the advice! Today his tongue started working again! I'm still taking it easy on him so I don't push his limits of recovery but the advice was very much appreciated!!
