Welcome, I am not as seasoned as some of the other members, but I am sure that they will jump in soon enough. First thing you will need to do is get rid of the coco fiber substrate. They can ingest it and it may cause impaction in their bowels and they can die. It is better to have nothing in...

Thanks for all the help everyone. Sorry I have been slow to respond, but I had a sad day yesterday...my first cham passed. I am having a hard time even writing this. I have no idea what happened, one day she was fine, the next she just faded away. My fiance and I did everything we had read on...

What happened using a glass enclosure and indoor/outdoor carpet? I had considered using indoor/outdoor carpet when I first got my cham, but I couldn't find any pieces small enough locally (they would only sell me huge sections rather than remnants). Is it a bacteria issue or ingestion issue...

Anybody? (added this reply to bump it so it wouldn't get buried on the forum)

I am glad I saw this...I was considering getting some mantis in the future. I think cost wise, I will stick to crickets and dubias.

Panther photobomb!

Hey, it has been a long time since I have posted, but I am still around and keeping busy with my cham(s). As of yesterday, I purchased my 2nd cham from a local reptile show, a really nice looking male Jackson's. Any tips and tricks of the trade that I should know? Feel free to share...

Also, the plastic sheeting trick works wonders. Put a sheet of plastic (the kind that comes in a roll at the hardware store or a Dollar General) around 3 sides of the enclosure. I use strips of adhesive backed velcro stuck on the frame of my reptibreeze screen cage to hold it up. This setup...

From my experience (the little bit I have), oranges are basically Roach Viagra...I put a few slices in when I got them last weekend on Friday, and by Monday, I had a fresh batch of babies. They were probably pregnant already, but I had all adults 1 day, then a few later, a bunch of babies showed...

How are things going with the cage? Post pics soon! Also, for future reference, if you have any questions, just ask. It is better to ask beforehand and learn from other peoples experiences than to have to figure out where you went wrong. We all have made mistakes, it is good that you are...

I apologize, I was unaware about the not asking about businesses and breeders on here. I just had a similar experience and wanted to make sure we did not get ours from the same place, since I had a long talk with the place I got mine from about selling me a WC that they claimed was CB. I was...

You are going to hate hearing this now that you have seperated them, but get the coco fiber out and keep it out. It is better to have nothing in the bottom than any kind of loose substrate like coco fiber. They can ingest it and it will clog up there digestive system and kill them. Don't...

That is what people were telling you, but you were too busy being rude to those of us offering suggestions and advice! The bare floor makes it easy to just wipe up the mess. All you have to do is drill a couple of holes in the bottom to make a drain and put your planter in the middle but raise...

Who did you get it from?

Hey, they are just trying to help you. Don't get defensive or rude. It is uncalled for. Also, as far as substrate, it can cause serious health problems if they ingest it. You may think it doesn't go to the bottom, but if it can climb on that screen, it can go to the bottom of the cage, and it...

Aw hell...I can't even tell the gender of humans...luckily that hasn't resulted in any awkward moments in the bedroom. Sorry Trace...

You sneaky booger...BRILLIANT!

I was going to use a shower curtain liner, but the only onces I could find before going with the roll of plastic sheeting, had a really strong toxic smelling plastic smell. it made me nervous that since I could smell it really strong, that it could harm my chameleon, so I went with the sheeting...

Oops, sorry, ISA, I just read your response. My offer still stands though. You have helped me in the past, I might as well return the favor. Let me know!

Why are you not able to get Dubias? Not available in your area? Just curious. I would be willing to hook you up when I get my colony started, if you want. just PM me. I also do not let my crickets get stinky, we clean their tubs out all the time, and they just stink anyway! The little ones...
