Guys, I did it! I got my mom's favorite candy and gave her those, then went to the petco and got the dubia. He LOVES them. Huzzah! I was worried I would end up having to breed crickets, but this is no longer a problem. (y) I brought up the "pay for electricity" thing to my dad, and he's gonna...

It's looking good, I just have a few questions..... 1.) where are the lights? The picture doesn't show the top of the cage very well, sorry if that's just me.... 2.) do you have a drainage system? Those are important for all the excess runoff. 3.) I see that you have a dripper system going...

Clarify: In an enclosure outside.

Live plants always help with humidity..... Are we talking in a enclosure or just roaming outside?

Ok. They get their shipments on fridays, so I will go check out the store soon....... I hope........

Ya, tell me about it. I did a little more research, and now I know of a few more: Carpet Chameleons (don't know much) Pygmy Chameleons (also don't know much) Jacksons (know a little, no cage requirements or anything) Parson's Chameleons (don't know much) Veileds (know a lot) Panthers (also...

I have an annoying sister who does the same thing, and so I usually camp out in my room so she doesn't turn it on or turn it off immediately, sometimes I have to yell at her to get her to not turn it on!

I will probably end up getting a few panthers, or some parsonii. Those are really cool looking, but those are really the only two I know of other than veileds. They all look awesome, but I'm definitely not going to get another veiled. I need some color or other cool features. :love:

Oh my goodness! They're so sweet! They look so inquisitive......

Hey guys! I was looking around at several old threads, and I saw some HUGE enclosures. I now ask that everyone who owns a chameleon on this forum to try to post pictures/ info about their enclosures...... Especially @Extensionofgreen, @jpowell86, and @jajeanpierre. I heard that your enclosures...

Ya, what ARE you doing with his feet?

Oh awesome! I will get some today or tomorrow and try feeding him....... See if he likes 'em. They look dead as in "curled up with all their legs tucked in" dead? I just had a great idea. I will go to my mom and be like, hey mom. I gave up on the dubia, but there are some other beetles that...

At the petstore near my house they don't have dubia. They have something called "spotted roaches", and i'm wondering if that's the same thing... Is it?

Well, here in Cinci the temperatures can range..... Around 90-95 in the summer and down to -20 at the lowest in the winter. I am going to try to subtly tell my mother that I will pay for heating, since there is no way my garage can insulate that.......:confused:

So, how long do you have to have the heating pad on? Are there any specific heating pads I should get? How hot should the heating pad be? I am putting the roaches in my garage (my mom insists)..

Thank you! I will keep that in mind, as I am convinced that this in the best option for Nik. ( and my finances!) I am almost 15, and I thank everyone who proves over and over again that just because you are young doesn't mean that you are stupid or incapable. Thanks guys!

Alright, sounds good. Bribery may work on this, as it will save me money to pay for both the heating and the insect's food rather than buying all the food from the commercial petstore. :D:p
