I did this as well! I went with black 1/4" pvc and love it. Some tips I learned was cut to length and then miter just the panel rail to fit, don't hammer any of the connections together until you're 100% sure They are correct. If you go to 8020's website you can find a local distributor for...
I've not watched or listened to the video yet but I've been debating on getting some drip system emitters to add to my mist Kong but I've also debated on getting a different pump and bucket to to add watering to each of my plants
This may not be a bad idea... yesterday I notice he was at the top of the enclosure near the heat lamp all day and again overnight he didn't move (spent basically 24hrs in the same spot. Eyes were open most of the day but did see them closed (but he does this while basking on occasion)
Last...
You know what... he does set up shop for the night right below one of the misters.
I wonder if that has contributed to it this time around.
Maybe I will rearrange some of the plants to see if he will find a different spot to sleep.
Thanks for all the input!
So below are the 1 day and 1 week temp/humidity graphs for the enclosure That's located in the middle of the enclosure not up by the basking spot.
I have also included a graph of JUST the basking spot.
I use repashy calcium plus LoD every feeding as recommended by the
breeder kamerflage...
OK my boy hatched in May 2021 so that makes him almost 2 now and he's been a really decent shedder every time.
This time was different. As you can see from the pictures he only seems to have shed half of it.
It's been about 3 days since the event.

tamura designs debuted their acrylic enclosures and I have to say I'm sold.

I was thinking about getting a crested gecko or a gargoyle gecko after seeing them all the reptile super show in southern California yesterday however I resisted the urge to impulse buy one.
I've had a few in the past, they didnt live more than a year, I've learned a lot, but is there a...
Like the title says; due to cage design and not really wanting to care and feed another type of bug, I need to get rid of about 50 Black soldier flies.
I currently have them in the freezer in a zip lock... I don't want to release them obviously outside.
Will 24hrs be sufficient to kill them...
Are there any good guides or websites or even youtube videos of how to keep and care for dubia's?
I know the basics and I have a reproducing colony but I'd like some more information and nuance.
Thanks!
I too have been having a few behavior changes in the last week. Could be coincidental but also the cooler days here in California coupled with the shoter days could be contributing.
Been totally normal the last 2 days.
I feed him every 3rd day and feed him maybe 5 large dubias. He always eats them and I use a feeder shooting gallery so I know they are not escaping and hiding.
I closed the window by his cage and upped his basking bulb dimmer a bit since the temp has...
So I have a 18 month old male panther who up until today has been super active.
I've been waiting a week for dubias to come back in and I fed him last week two 1in (I'd say very large) gut loaded dubias.
Today he ate 8 dubias (also gut loaded over night with bug burger) and after that is...
