    Frozen? Help!!

    Same thing happened with Cleo when I got her last month. The temps were in the mid 20's and she got delayed a few hours because of the snowy weather at that time. I thought the same thing so I held her near her bask light and breathed on her and within a min her eyes popped open and she has...

    How to support a branch in the enclosure

    I used thumbtacks to secure the branches, I just tacked them through the screen int he aluminum. It provides a nice and steady support too. You can also try zip ties, twist ties, I think I read folks even trying hot glue.

    gypsy moth caterpillars good for chams?

    Yeah I can't imagine those being good, but I don't know for sure. The Wisconsin DNR has started a war with them because of the damage they do to trees. When I go out fishing I can find trees just loaded with them to the point its creepy!

    Sleeping Position

    How long in the shower is too long?

    I have a 4' Ficus that I put Samson in and then into the shower. He loves it, I can tell when he has had enough because he gets very restless and starts trying to climb up the wall and off his plant.

    Im new and I have some questions.

    Ahh if you drip into your plant your are going to want to make sure that the pot itself has good drainage so water doesn't build up in the soil and overwater the plant and kill it. Most folks mix up a little sand at the bottom part of the planter to aid in this.

    Rep cal vs miner all

    I like Miner-all. I use both right now. Miner-all O everyday with the 2 Rep-Cal products 2 times a month. The Miner-all is a lot stickier I noticed and it is less concentrated than the Rep-Cal products so you are less likely to overdose.

    heated misting water

    Yeah that is what I do, there are a few concerns though. One being that it needs to be cleaned once a week or it starts to get slimy and grow algea. The second is that you have more water evaporation so you go through water more, not a big deal if you have a big reservoir, but my gallon one...
