    Misting -vs- drip

    Guess no one has any advice on this subject. Guess I will have to just try and keep an eye on Penelope to make sure she is not getting dehydrated. A little disappointed right now. My last few post have been pretty much ignored. :mad:

    Multi vitamin and calcium and d3 questions

    You might want to try Rapashy Bug Burger. It is a great gut load and my crickets love it. You mix it with water and cook it a bit. I even fed it dry to my crickets along with fruits and veggies. The bug burger was always gone in a couple of days. :D

    Multi vitamin and calcium and d3 questions

    From what I understand feeding dog food to crickets is NOT good for your chameleon.

    Misting -vs- drip

    My baby veiled HATES to be misted. Would a gravity fed rain ring work in place of an auto mister? I am getting ready to move her into a 18X18X36 screen cage next week and I want to make sure she is getting enough water. I think I will need to raise the floor up a bit because she is so small...

    safe flea treatment for home?

    A few years ago when my daughter had a chinchilla and we got fleas from the kittens we were given I used a mixture of baking soda and salt. (1/2 and 1/2) I sprinkled it everywhere..even under couch cushions. After a few days I vacuumed every day for about a week. Make sure to empty vacuum...

    Penelope is making a weird noise

    I will take her as soon as I get paid. Like I said, I am broke right now and I get paid next Monday. Even if I could find a vet that takes payments I doubt they would see her without a down payment which I cannot do right now. I am extremely worried about her and I hope she will be ok until...

    Penelope is making a weird noise

    Had Penelope out today and I noticed that she was making this weird noise. She opens her mouth and makes this strange hissy, squeaky noise and when she closes her mouth she takes a breath, her neck kinds flares out (not sure how to explain it) and makes a little popping noise. Just noticed a...

    Rebels Mini Free Range...

    So here is the free range I sat up for Rebel. I want to add a lot more so he can spend a lot more time out of his cage. So far he loves the umbrella tree. He gets right in the middle and its really hard to find him. Every once in a while you will see his head poke out..lol Sorry the...

    Just Rescued a Veiled Chameleon

    Just a quick question. Its hard to tell from this picture but is the enclosure top screen or glass? If it glass, or even plastic the UVB light will do him no good. Glass etc. blocks UVB rays. The UVB should be sitting on screen. If you can I would take him outside as often as possible so...

    Update on gravid female

    I would think that any bird big enough to grab your cham should be worried about. I would think you should be really worried about a heron. JMHO. This may age me but I had no idea what or who Skrillex was. I googled it and listened to a song/video. Music is kinda cool but I found the video...

    Habitat confusion

    Thanks.. I like the idea of the rain ring. My little girl cries every time I mist her. lol I don't know that she will ever get to where she likes it. I think the rain ring would put out more water which is fine with me. I just want to make sure she is well hydrated. I'm not too worried...

    Habitat confusion

    Oh no, not yet :eek:... Sorry I wasn't clear on that. I am so new at the baby thing as well as female thing so I will wait until I know that the time is right. Believe me, I will be asking A LOT of questions to make sure I am doing things right. I am not sure just how old she is so I'm...

    Habitat confusion

    I am trying to decide what to do. I have looked at all the cages from the sponsors and I just can't decide which cage to get. I LOVE the Dragon Strand breeder series cages but they are a little smaller than recommended size for my veiled. Also, do I need to upgrade Rebel (male Veiled) to the...

    This is a silly question

    My male veiled Rebel hates most bright colors. The strange this is if I want to get him out of his cage without him trying to attack my hand I just put on my bright blue and white garden gloves. It's like he doesn't feel threatened by the gloves like he does by my hand. My baby girl Penelope...

    big girl cage

    How long should I wait to move Penelope to her big girl cage? (18X18X36 all screen) She is in a 12X12X18 Exo Terra Glass Terrarium and she gets lost in it. I have a super hard time finding her. lol I am unsure of her age and I posted pictured and asked if anyone had an idea of her age. Both...

    veieled chameleons from petco??

    I know Petco isn't always the best choice but I have to reply. I rescued a little female veiled last Saturday. I had gone in the previous Thursday and saw several things wrong with her enclosure. I was assured by the employee that I spoke to about my concerns that they would be corrected...
