They are 1/4” crickets but I have them in a little cup and she seems really interested when I put them in front of her! Thanks for all your help! Things are looking great!
Great to know thank you! She actually started her first shed today! Is it normal for her not to eat today or would she still be hungry? I have crickets in her enclosure as per usual but unsure what to expect ❤️
Ok, I’ll be sure to do that especially with the new build I’m making tomorrow, thanks for your input! I would LOVE to hook up a Cham cam, I’ll have to look into getting one! ❤️
Hi friends! I recently started using a feeder run to help my baby see the crickets I’v started feeding her by breeder recommendation, they are size small crickets (1/4”) and she’s pretty petite. She sometimes will eat a cricket out of the run but only when I place her within full view and she...
Ok good to know! Then I’ll place the fan at the top facing outward to help the air circulate out through the top! Thank you! I have two 3” ventilation holes at the bottom of the enclosure with a wide mesh to help airflow, however I’ll add the fan circulation then if the tank needs more airflow...
May I ask a question about how to achieve the chimney effect? Is it to get the air moving from the bottom of the enclosure to the top, or the top air to the bottom? I bought a small fan but unsure to have it pointing into the enclosure or away to suck air out…or whether to put it at the top to...
Good to know on both accounts, thank you! I’ll be looking for hardwood branches next time, as of right now the mold is pretty superficial so I’ll be keeping an eye out if that becomes an issue. Thank you!
I also cleaned my wild branches and let them sun bake!
Very good info on the fake ones…if I use them I’ll be keeping a close eye on them so thank you for that ❤️
It did dry out every day before I realized I wasn’t hydrating my baby correctly, I then misted a LOT until my fogger came and that’s when the mold showed up and hasn’t left 🥲 specifically I’m sure it was because I was misting during the daytime for 2 days. I have since stopped doing this and...
I found my branches outside, at first I didn’t have the tank humid at nighttime then I over compensated and that’s when I found mold…I’ve since bought a fogger and use that at night with misting once am and pm but I think I need a fan to air it out. I’m just concerned that prolonged exposure to...
Hi folks! Has anyone tried using Hydrogen peroxide 3% to sanitize sticks mold on them?
I’m adding a fan to the top of the enclosure to help with airflow however I still am unsure if I just need to replace all the sticks or if I can use hydrogen peroxide to sanitize them.
Has anyone used...
My 4 mo. old baby carpet chameleon Karen has a hard time finding fruit flies in the condiment cup I put in her enclosure, they are dusted with vitamins. She has a better time finding them around the enclosure if they escape but then I’m not sure how many she’s eating or if it’s enough for her...
Awe so fun! May I ask how you kept track of her eating for the first few weeks? She doesn’t eat in front of me and has a hard time finding dusted fruit flies in a little condiment cup, some escaped and climbed the walls and she found those easier…? How does your gal eat? I haven’t tried silk...
I don’t have any good photos of her at the moment, I’ve been trying to bother her as least as possible while I get her hydration schedule. Here’s one I just took but it’s not the best!
Here’s a photo of the hydration holes I have at the bottom of the enclosure, they look very small but each one...
Hello friends!
I just received my baby carpet chameleon Karen three weeks ago at 4 months old! She is adorable but sadly I underestimated what she would need for humidity and water in my area and she got dehydrated and is still currently pretty skinny! 🥲 however she is eating well, popping...
