Reflectors and a hood & reflectors & a hood, can't stress that enough.
You lose soo much light and efficiency if you don't direct the light down to where you want it.
I've been smoking tomatoes for years, although you need a blowtorch to light them...LOL There not that bad,,,cough,cough;)
But seriously they are very good for you!

Pretty cool idea, just to make sure there is a new supply of feeders released into the enclosure each day...I like it. Maybe not for my Cham, but for my other lizards...cool
Pity we don't have a Wallmart here!:(
Cheers

Brad,
You know i love the site, I have mentioned it a couple of times before.
Can I make a suggestion on what I feel a good subject title would be?
A FAQ section!
Now, what I mean by this is, not the obvious questions that are linked to general husbandry ie enclosures, lighting etc, more...
Well, what can I say:eek:, but that is absolutely "amazing", WELL DONE to you and your hubby, you guys are pretty damn passionate about your hobby hey?
Keep us posted with pics when you get your chams in there!
Cheers
Scott....
if you can't see the tarsal spur, even at that age, it's a girl.
i got my boy when he was 6 days old and you could indentify it was a male then, after the breeder showed what I was looking at.
Congrats anyway! :)
Cheers
Scott.
LOL Yep roaches too,
I live in the opposite hemishere to you and our roaches climb anything...We need to paint a substance called Fluon or Teflon paint on all our enclosures that house our roaches as they climb almost anything...we call them "woodies" or wood roaches or speckled feeder...
She's a gorgeous girl, that's for sure!
Is it the way you have your fingers placed, or am I seeing individual lumps? If the latter i'd say she's gravid as well.
Cheers

Royden,
This is the feeder I have albeit a bit better looking...
I too am big on aesthetics and to camoflauge the feeder is easily done...Paint it green/brown, stick fake plants on it, BUT let me say this, it really does work with the mesh at the back for the crix roaches to climb on, my 7...
Cool, their a buzz...
In my experience, they will climb upwards if there is nothing for them to hide in/under down low.
Depending on the size of your cage, ie if it's large, use a feeder cup at first with a young cham so as to make sure he is eating enough. it's easier to monitor his feeding...
This is me, the one in the Blue shirt...my wife next to me and our close friends, taken a couple of weeks ago, after a few beers....:p
And yes, I am an idiot most of the time...
Cheers
Scott
LOL... now that would be good.
Remember my thread on my new enclosure?
Check out my setup, not being egotistical, but I am stoked with the way it preforms, My drainage problems have been solved, the only part I would like to change, is having to empty the vessel catching the water. I too have...
I'm joking with you...it's hard to convey jest in writing, if you had the image of the skit I mentioned, you would laugh too.
I guess you had to be there as they say!
Scott.
