I forget the species of termite, but there is a species used as feeders that only eat a specific kind of wood, not used in buildings etc. So they really aren't a risk. Regardless it was still illegal to ship them. I had talked to a pet shop in FL and they told me all of this.

They really don't smell, unless your cages are quite dirty maybe. The lights will add to the heat which is ok this time of year, but maybe not in mid summer.

I give mine about 2-5 different feeders every morning

They do eat termites, but shipping them is illegal apparently

I like those colors, very unique

Yep theyre the same thing

I strategically placed mine right below the basking spot so they cant help but look down and see them wiggling around in the cup

My chams eat a lot of phoenix worms. I make it a point to feed them off on non calcium supplement days and have never noticed any issues with digestion. As soon as I drop them in their worm feeder cups they run to the cup and zap them all up pretty fast. Ill have to try superworms eveentually...

Ive used worman, he has some good deals sometimes. Free phoenix worms with 100 crickets last time. But reptilefood.com is cheap and easy also.

You use superwoms as a staple? Ive always thought of them nutritionally as a giant mealworm. With the hard exoskeleton I thought they'd be hard to digest in numbers.

Looking at the UVB in that pic, it looks like he doesn't really have a way to get under it other than hang off the ceiling? you should run a vine all the way down the length of it 6 inches under it. Also, and extra ficus tree in the open area would go nicely.

I use a 10 gal aquarium I got off craigslist. Works just fine

Can check here: http://www.uvguide.co.uk/ I've also read that the light produced by the 10.0 is different that the other lights and can have psychological effects. But of course thats hard to prove. I originally bought a 10.0 also but yanked it out for a 5.0 after being told not too.

I drilled a 2 1/2 hole in the center, put a screen filter over the hole. Also use cauking around the edges so the wate4r doesn't seep out the sides. The water then goes through the hole, through a funnel and into a bucket.

You should try getting him when hes sleeping. I used to get my chams eye easily at this time with antibiotic. If you just shine a light on him he'll open his eye then hit him.

Mold shouldn't be much an issue, just dont get any water near them and dont touch them without washing your hands. The cool thing about refrigerating the eggs is you can keep them in there for up to a year. so if you need more, just hatch more eggs.

Strange he got in there. my last shipment from reptilefood.com had spiders in it.

You should ask them how cold thier house gets specifically. If its 70 or over, i wouldnt worry about it

Actually you wont have to penetrate the screen, get wire thats thin enough to go through the screen holes. That works just fine. If you have wire cutters you can cut the twisted end off and bend it against the screen so its hardly noticable.

I bought a small spool of wire at home depot (local hardware store). Cost about 2 dollars and I use it to hang almost everything, feeder cup too. Just make sure any wire ends are OUTSIDE the cage :)
