    Tree of choice

    The most popular are Hibiscus, Schefflera/Dwarf Umbrella, Ficus and Pothos. I bought the ficus with my cham which really is great for cover. Yesterday I ran over to Walmart after I picked up crickets and I got a schefflera, pothos and a hibiscus (red heart I think) just to put in the room to up...

    Damn silkies!

    My girl loves silkies now. She bites em in half and rips the low half off whatever they are stuck to. It's pretty brutal when she spots one, but they hunker down and go stick mode too quick and she doesn't find more than 1 or 2... how can I get them to move around more?

    Moisture/Humidity Help!

    Uh, I don't think your cham eating the potting soil is very safe. You should probably nip that in the bud. It's recommended you use rocks larger than your cham's head to prevent them from eating the dirt. I have a baby Nosy Be panther girl. Temps are low 80s during the day and low to mid 70s at...

    need more plants for my first cham.

    I've been looking for other options as well. I have a ficus and it's really great, but I'm looking to see what else I can get in there to up the humidity. I found the most common are ficus, pothos, dwarf umbrella tree and hibiscus. Apparently there isn't really a good herp site that sells these...

    Moisture/Humidity Help!

    Hey I have that exact one haha. I was considering running that in the room, but not necessarily into the enclosure because it would contribute to the pool that forms in the bottom if add moisture too often.

    Moisture/Humidity Help!

    If I don't hand mist it will go down to the low 40s. I keep it between 50% and 70% during the day. It's usually in the 50s between hand mistings. It spikes when I mist and it drops back into the 50s. I let it drop at night to dry out a little it's between 45% and 50%. 45% is actually pretty...

    Moisture/Humidity Help!

    Ok, so I have a live ficus, a dripper, a misting system that goes for 8 seconds every hour and I hand mist multiple times a day. I hand mist 3 times a day minimum and upwards of 6 times depending. Sometimes I have the fan on and the door open in that room to get rid of the stagnant air and...

    Plant Suppliers?

    How would I know if those are safe? Isn't there a herp store that sells live plants that are grown specifically for reptile enclosures? Or are most hibiscus/ficus/pothos/umbrellas sold in stores safe?

    Plant Suppliers?

    I was just wondering, where does everyone get their plants from? I was interested in an umbrella. Maybe others... but I was just curious if there was a good safe place to buy from that I was unaware of.

    My baby panther setup! Seeking answers/tips/advice

    How do those flightless fruit flies do? Do they hang out on the screen or will they wander in my ficus? They looked kinda too small for her to notice. Is that an issue?

    Got my silkworms.... now what?

    The bigger ones in the pods are still small enough for her. Honestly I just want to get her eating. I realize there may not be the full amount of nutrition in the small worms, but I just want to get her eating something as I've been very worried about her lately. Got her on the 3rd and her...

    Got my silkworms.... now what?

    If my hand is anywhere near her she will flip out and run away. I'm trying to wait awhile before I handle her again. Until she is out of the danger zone (3months) at least. Yes I sang the song...

    Got my silkworms.... now what?

    So my silkworms finally arrived. Do I just toss them in the mealworm feeder cup or what? I tried tong feeding my little girl one and she puffed up and opened her mouth which I've never seen before. What does everyone else do?

    My baby panther setup! Seeking answers/tips/advice

    Yeah, I need to pick up a dripper. I tried melting ice in half a water bottle on a water bottle with a tiny hole in it, but it just isn't the right amount of water. I mist it multiple times a day to make up for it. It seems to dry up very quick in there now since I took out the coconut husk...
