What I do is I make a "river of death" Basically I put the cage on a stand of some kind and on the bottom what the stand sits on is a rubbermaid lid. I simply use vegetable oil and it creates a border around the edge keeping any kind if unwanted spiders, ants, etc out. It has worked and I...

On 7-21 my Female Jackson named Tessy also had 9 babies. Would of been 10 but one did not survive. So far the 9 seem to be doing good. On 7-23 my Fiance and I have noticed a few of the babies starting to eat some of the tiniest of pinhead crickets. At first none of them were interested...

many use a Schefflera as they can cover up a lot of the space in a cage giving plenty of climbing and hiding spots for your Cham. Another popular one is the Hibiscus. The chams can even eat the flowers from the Hibiscus and many owners say they do.

IMO you should be giving him more mistings and by the sounds of you saying you are concerned with drainage you are probably not misting the cage long enough. IMO he should be getting misted at least 4 times a day and each time should be no shorter than 5 minutes. The humidity should never be...

Here is a link you can go off of to help you decide what live plants to go with. They are really the way to go as she said they really help with humidity. https://www.chameleonforums.com/plants

Good news. A few of the baby Jacksons have started eating. None of them were interested in the cups with the pinheads in them at all so we put a slice of apple that had a bunch of pinheads feeding on it in the cage and it caught the attention of three of the Chams right away and started...

Agreed and also what is great about it is since it is already ground up its perfect to put in little 2oz cups tilted on egg crates perfect for the pinheads to access the great goodness.

Only the tiniest of ones actually escape. I really hope that they start eating today. I have made sure everything is just right for them and they all seem very active so hopefully they start feeding.

You can also try and sell it here in the classifieds.

Here are some more pics of the little ones. Sorry the quality of pics aren't the best as they were taken from a phone. They are roaming around checking stuff out. They have not started eating yet but hopefully will start tomorrow. I have two feeder cups along with some pinheads free roaming...

Thanks for the tips. I have watched your video on the care of Jacksons many times. It has a ton of good information. It has helped me out a bunch. I think that video is yours anyway? :cool:

IMO you might want to look at getting a 2x2x4 cage instead. That is the size they should have as an adult.

Mine also are not interested in food yet. Was told to wait a day or two and their appetites should be booming :D What size is the enclosure you have yours in? Looks good.

Congrats on the little ones. Looks like ours have the same Birthday. That is really cool. They are looking good.

They are not really multi vitamins so to say but they work great. I have used cricket crack and also DinoFuel is another good one. I simply sprinkle it on the feeders food and they love the goodness. Both are great.

Wow they are looking great. I hope my newborns do as good as yours.

Yeah sure I can. I will PM you

I have a colony of about 5000 pinhead's coming from just 200 adult Crickets. The keys I will point out are the following. The best results I get are from having three bins and a clear bin for the eggs. you will be rotating the bins according to size of crickets. Sounds easier than it is...

Here is a great Blog by Sandrachameleon that has great info on gutloading our feeders. https://www.chameleonforums.com/blogs/sandrachameleon/75-feeder-nutrition-gutloading.html

By making sure it is organic is the only way. Go to the organic section of most grocery stores and they will have stuff. It will usually have an organic sticker on it.
