Hi guys, I've been out of the hobby for a while, and had my Pro-mist PM-60 pump in storage. With myself and my new family (a 15 y/o stepdaughter and a new baby daughter on the way) getting back into the hobby, I tried to get it to work. It seems it's extremely loud, and while it does have a...

There are several Feeder retailers that are close to you. Coastal, us, even LLLReptile would be closer to you than Lindas Gone Buggie, but she does produce a quality product from what I hear :-) Whatever you do, just make sure you try as many different insects as possible, so you understand...

Honestly Gavriel, I've heard of this before. Silkworms, while most reptiles LOVE them, are not infallible. I have heard of Chams and other reptiles refusing them. Just out of curiosity, are the Silkworms a regular solid white color or a striped zebra color? Some striped insects can invoke a...

There are several retailers that carry a large variety of feeders for your Cham. It's important to review all your selections before deciding on the best staple food for your cham. Dubias are an excellent support feeder, even staple feeder if you can breed them quick enough, but keep in mind...

Unfortunately that is incorrect Kyle. Repti-worms are NOT Phoenix Worms, they are the same species, but Phoenix Worms, in the opinion of many feeder experts, mine included, are a much better quality brand of Black Soldier Fly Larvae than Repti-Worms or Calci-Worms, both of which I have first...

Generally worms should be kept in a cup, it's just better to keep them contained than to let them damage your cage or escape all together from the cage. Now the caterpillars would be ok, like the Silkworms and Hornworms, and maybe the Dubia/Discoid Nymphs, but grubs and worms I'd keep contained...

You say "they were chirping more" like that's a good thing. Dang things drive my wife and I CRAZY! -Dave SPF

No, they will emerge when they are ready, just keep the soil from drying out. -Dave SPF

A cup for the smaller worms (PW's, Baby Superworms). Caterpillars can roam for a few days without food in the cage, and won't attack your cham.

Hmmm he looks quite small, which will limit you on choices, but if hes still of a similar size as in your avatar, I'd say... Small hornworms Small silkworms (or buy eggs and raise them yourself to the appropriate size, which is cheaper) Small phoenix worms Small or baby superworms (stay...

Still, I would keep the insect in a quarantine container, feeding it washed leafy veggies and insect gutload if you have it. Oranges work well too :-) Just make sure everything is pesticide free, this way the insect will flush out any harmful foods it ate previously to you capturing it. While...

You can find a bunch in the Sponsors page as well :-) -Dave SPF

^agreed. While bug burger is very nutritious, a variety of fruits and veggies is a good idea. Variety is the key to a healthy diet with both pets and feeders :-) -Dave SPF

Yes, please remove any uneaten crickets from your pet's cage at nighttime, especially when in large numbers. I'd really recommend you consider another food source for your little guy though, there are so many more nutritious and less dangerous feeder insects that are sold on the web, we don't...

Im from Southeast Florida!! Originally from Sebastian, FL, born in West Palm Beach ;-) Unfortunately I currently reside in Atlanta, GA, but if you can manage to get in touch with Jann, she's from Ft. Pierce.

Oh and the only difference between the purple stripe and red stripe box is the purple is from Turkey. The red stripe is from...Im not sure honestly, somewhere they speak English because it's in English versus...Turkeyian. lol What language do they speak in Turkey? Helloooo Google! ;-)

Ive used Terramycin from Turkey, and it works just fine for my Ambilobe male. Has anyone else found different results? -Dave SPF

You should try something active, like Small or maybe Medium Phoenix Worms, and possibly small silkworms in a Silkworm Pod. Don't forget to dust with a Superfood, Calcium, and Multivitamin regularly, adjusting to the quality of feeders you're feeding, and if you stick with crickets will be...

Yea, you should probably be sticking to the Baby (1/2") or Smalls (1"). At 3 months old, you must keep wary of feeding too large and too aggressive of feeders. Your lil guy is still very sensitive, and insects like superworms and hornworms have been known to pinch at eye's and other areas...

I like to give 2-3 dubias for protein and roughage, some Phoenix Worms for calcium, with a juicy caterpillar, preferably a Hornworm or a Large Silkworm to help the digestion, which are also high in calcium. I actually only dust occasionally to help "fill in the blanks" nutrtionally and honestly...
