I don't suppose anybody would be wanting to get some snails off their hands?? Not sure if any of you guys happen to be selling them, but if it's not too much trouble, I would like to try them out. Perhaps I'll start my own colony going once Spring/Summer approaches!
I used to keep my mealworms in the fridge... I'd advise against it though. Sure, they don't stay alive as long, but why does that matter if you breed your own mealworms and sustain the cycle? Do it... it's really easy. You have maybe 100 mealworms you start off with ... allow them to pupate and...
Crash bandit is right. I've never seen it done, but it is a rather quick process... brought the freshish poop in, and had results within 30 minutes, so it does not necessarily take all day as previously mentioned.
Those out there who don't know already know this, GET A FECAL EXAM. DONE on your...
I'm a student and do my fair share of traveling and it gets dry here enough in the midwest for me to feel it necessary to invest in a mistking. I have only one cham but it is very useful still for both chameleon AND plants. We spend a lot of money on plants; might as well keep try and keep them...
I went on a road trip with my brothers for two weeks during the Summer Time, and my mom and girlfriend forgot to fill the misting bucket! I was so worried!
Water is important, so don't forget that! I'll be leaving again this Christmas to see family, so hopefully I can trust my girlfriend this...
It's normal for the youngins to crawl around everywhere like that. My chameleon still climbs on the side of the cage pretty regularly. I'm going to add more branches to give my guy more options. Beware though: I have heard that chameleons can lose their nails if they get stuck in the mesh of the...
Hello fellow forumers! I just had a quick question regarding everybody's favorite topic: poop! I have noticed but have forgotten to get on here and ask. It appears that my chameleon sometimes poops twice in one sitting. I don't normally see it happening because it's already on the bottom of the...
Hi Nick, I keep my superworms in an empty sour cream container with oatmea and feed them greens and some fruitl. I've never given them water crystals because I would think that they would just get deeper into the oatmeal and make a mess. How would one administer water crystals to superworms?
Sorry to be revisiting an old post, but I had a quick question. Hopefully somebody sees this. Do soldier fly larvae need a substrate, or can one simply throw food scraps in? I found a piece of rotting and molding piece of fruit the other day, and noticed it was getting kind of stinky, and I...
I have a Mistking for my one cham, and it works really well. I try to only use R.O. water, which I am lucky to have access to since I am still living with my parents.
Using tap water in any misting system with tubes could result in calcium buildup of some sort, which will eventually clog your...
I've heard of isopods being used as a feeder for chameleons, but did not know they could be used for cleaning enclosures? More info or links about this would be much appreciated. Otherwise I suppose I could search too
Many would argue that one should not handle their chameleons. Some just don't tolerate it and it can really stress them out. In the chameleon world especially, stress kills. Never force a chameleon out of its comfort zone. I would agree that you should definitely try hand feeding though! If your...
I think kwilmot is asking what locale? Looks like ambilobe, but I'm really not too familiar with too many,as there are dozens upon dozens of locales of panther chams right?
