I've never tried this but have read somewhere they like garlic spray.

I love snakes, the funny thing is the times that I don't own one I'd have nightmares about them. For 14 years my King Snake has kept the nightmares away. Give it a try, somthing about having a snake will get rid of nightmare about them.

My chameleon loves crickets so it was hard to get him to eat roaches, I used a feeder cup and would add both roaches and crickets together. Every day I would add less crickets and more roaches, of course he ate all the crickets first, but over time he now finishes off the roaches. Good luck...

Try not to feed them off before your colony develops a strong breeding cycle, depending on what you ordered, it takes about 6-8 months before you have stable amount of roaches to feed. I started with 35 females and 6 males, now I’m in the thousands. I’ll only pick out the males to feed off when...

Tragic? for the chameleons or the people who did the experimentations? May they all rest in peace.

He is so cute, I wish him the best. The special ones always grab the heart the most.

Welcome, my chameleon hates cameras and cell phones. I take picture from a distance with good amount of zoom. As for your chameleon being mad could be a good thing, if he hates being taken out then he probably likes his new enclosure you have set up, it is his territory that he has claimed...

Hey everyone, I’ve had problems getting on the forums but with the help from Brad I’m back online. This week I will order and pick up supplies to start the new batch. I'm having great success with medium crickets. I want to keep the feeder cups as small as possible to keep them less...

I can't acsess the forums on my main computer so it is hard for me to post anything and send out replies. I don't know why, but it seems my IP address is blocked from getting on this web site. Is anyone else having problems?

Thanks everyone for the comments, your posts are comforting as I have been beating myself up a bit. I want to fix the problem and I will have been studying how they are escaping. 1. Your chameleons drops them. I’ve seen the chameleons tongue pick up multiple crickets at once only to drop one...

Bad news, I’m extremely unsatisfied with this first batch of feeder cups, with a few minor and one major flaw I consider them a failure. I take shame in making something that does not work and have spent days testing and thinking of how to fix them. My conclusion is that they do not do their...

UPDATE from a member. "I got mine and they look great---thanks! Only problem was that the plate on the back for the magnet fell off as soon as I touched the magnet...and the yellow foam was still between them. I glued it back on with some miracle bond epoxy and set it aside to dry...then I...

Picture I posted above is wrong. It is 3 inches long, not 4 inches as pictured.

First batch is all gone. I’m sorry if someone was still on the list, but don’t worry I’ll start working on the new batch next week. Like always I’ll keep you all posted with updates.

Here is a new modification that will help with escaping crickets. The top lid needs a little trimming, pop off the top and use a razor or sharp knife to trim off the extra plastic (pictured below). I had left a little bit of the plastic on for added strength but it is not needed and crickets can...

IMPORTANT UPDATE and Tips Escaped cricket! I kept one of the new feeder cups and give it a test today and a few of them escaped the feeder cup. When I attempted to capture one he jumped out of my cage and ran behind my dresser. This was my nightmare scenario, a male chirping cricket loose in...
