    How often do you remoisten your laying bins?

    I have a 6"x6"x1" deep container of totally dry sand in the bottom......When she goes to dig she throws the sand out on the bottom of the cage so it's easy to tell. I always figured leaving a damp substrate would promote bacteria and/or mold growth. Kevin

    Drosophilia hyde (fruit flys)

    Let me just add that I use baby food fruits and baby cereal oats figuring that the nutritional values are greater for the chams........kinda like gutloading crickets. Kevin

    Drosophilia hyde (fruit flys)

    Which site? I usually just use whatever kitchen containers that I have laying around. Then I put bridal veil, pantyhose, or coffee filters across the top with rubber bands or trap them under a lid that I've cut the middle out of. Kevin

    HPS or metal halide???

    Those bulbs are not best suited for chams. A linear flourescent UVB 5.0 and a regular household bulb for heat are the best combination for creating proper heat gradient and UVB availability. There are high output bulbs available. They are specialized mercury vapor bulbs. You would really...

    Home-made cages

    If you're talking about screen cages, I don't think that they're worth building to save money. The only time I've found it worthwhile is if you want a custom size. It costs only slightly more to purchase the premade kits than to assemble one of the same size from scratch. If you're talking...

    Best Insect Enclosures

    Keep the egg containers moist if they dry out once they'll die. Then when the babies hatch the moisture will accumulate on the bottom and drown your babies :rolleyes: They are a pain!!!!! Kevin

    IceFyre's babies for sale!

    Thanks Klangford, You're right that didn't read well at all. It's fixed! How's: "We live in Pennsylvania so we cannot keep our collection outside during the winter months. This limits our space and therefore our collection. We keep only a few breeders and limit our clutches to make...

    Reptaid 4???

    Fire 'em up?

    :D The rubber ducky is in the bath not the shower.....:rolleyes: Jeese. I shower all my juvenile and adult chams once a week or two. I put a plant in the shower and bounce tempid water off the shower wall to spray on them. I leave them in for 15 mins to a half an hour. Rhocasygoth in the...
