Very cool, I love talking about projects :D
You will have to post when you are done! This is somewhere on my to-do list. I have a cool mister next to the cages, but I really want to pipe it in. Seeing other people's diy foggers always good for ideas!
My immediate project is a 2ftx5ftx6ft...
I don't have experience with 24hr outdoor chameleon keeping. I really enjoyed this resource though: http://www.chameleonbreeder.com/podcast/ep-16-outdoor-chameleon-keeping/
Whatever you end up deciding, I would highly suggest having a place to move him indoors or have a way to roll the...
Recently sent an email to the Flex Seal company and thought I'd share the info. They replied "Yes, Flex Seal Liquid should work for your project because once fully cured, it is non-hazardous, non-toxic, safe around plants and animals and NSF food grade safe." And included the SDS sheet, which I...
Welcome Alyssa! I LOVE the name Spyro. Why didn't I think of that!? I wish you luck on your boy's road to recovery, by the sounds of his old place it may be a tricky journey. Glad he has you now!
How odd. I assumed new color, because I noticed in your picture that the spot's color is same as the color on his eye socket. I'm not very experienced with chams, but if it was my guy I would just keep an eye on it. Doesn't look raised or irritated :confused::)
Gottchya. Was worried she had a loose grip and fell from a branch, which would be concerning. But a chameleon who is getting larger and is determined to climb on the screen, that is more understandable. My Nosey did the same thing for a while, trying to climb his screen.
Agreed. Could you...
Glad you have the dedication to get him out early! I am not a fan of humid, this time of year "At least it's a dry heat" is everyone's mantra. I live in Central California, was 102F today :confused:
Pretty soon, Lil Squirt won't be so little! Lol. Cute as always, glad he's getting a chance to soak in some sun. It's so hot here during the days, early mornings are the only chance for mine to be outside
I have heard of people doing two feedings, but I'm guessing there are a fare number of people that would not be able to do more feedings do to their schedules. So it may have evolved from convenience? Or is simpler? I personally do any cup or hand feeding in am, and release the crickets for free...
Yes, when my guy was younger he was the same, slipping off my hand/arm, his feet were so tiny! They still kind of are, lol. Also, once he is on my hand, he usually panics and trys to run up my arm, which has even less grips! Thats why I like a stick. I can pick one that's a good grip size, and...
Hard to say. A vet visit will answer questions especially if an x-ray is done, they can check her bone density too. Good that she hasn't fallen again, but is odd that she did at all, their grip on a branch is usually pretty secure. Did you see her fall? If she has been hanging on the screen...
My ambilobe is still weary of hands. If I have to move him I use an extra branch/stick (a left over from his cage perches). I place it in front of him and slowly move my hand behind him, sometimes touching his tail or rump if he's being ststubbo). He will slowly make his way onto the branch. If...
It looks like it's just asking to be a cham room! There are a few modifications that can help. We have a sun room that is used for our birds. Not sure what direction the room faces, but getting hit with sun, the windows heat it up quick. If you are able to add some sort of awning made of shade...
I still really new, but it doesn't look bad, the skin looks normal. It really looks like a new coloration, or maybe his pattern is changing. What age is he?
Yup! I Use a pet carrier. Mine opens at the top as well as the front, which is nice because it's easier for him to crawl on out and also to get him back in. Mount a size appropriate branch/perch for them to grab. Although my guy usually ends up grabbing the sides of the box. And a towel or some...
Keep us posted on him :) and like curlytails said, could be a bit of left over shed or bit of something too. So many possibilities (unfortunately :confused:)! Let us know how he does :D
