unless he comes to you, dont. you can coax them with crickets though......

i dont know if this will be like throwing gas on the fire, but for those of you that are critisizing the free ranges, what are you thoughts on keeping chams in a cage? most members on this site keep their chams in cages that are no where near as large as most of these free ranges. i mean, i...

so after my little free range experiment today it seems oscar prefers the window plant to his cage. i used to just leave his cage open 24/7 with the door off and never have any problems with escape, but after hanging out in his window spot and putting him back, i caught him trying to make an...

whats in pothos thats different from other greens that stops calcium absorbtion?

i just repotted all my plants and used organic soil. it seems very fine with no large random chunks, so i didnt think it would be a problem keeping it uncovered. heck, it might be good for them.....

i just started letting oscar, my veiled, free range in my room today, by leaving the door off of his cage and adding a vine from it to my hanging pothos in the window. he hasnt gone anywhere else other than the pothos. my question is: if it gets too dry/warm/cold will he know to go back into...

today i noticed oscar, my 6mth old male veiled has been pacing from his basking spot at the top of the cage to the cage floor. he doesnt stay at the bottom, but will climb down there, get to the bottom, and turn around and go back up. he does this almost every couple minutes he just started...

yeah i have a humidifier going almost constantly at the foot of his cage. ill probably position it under the window after i set up his free range

cage and free range setup here is his current cage setup: and here is his window next to the cage i plan on turning into a free range area for him to explore as he pleases.... ive been researching a lot on free ranging and plan on setting up a 24" uvb above the window along with a heat...

Well I've created this thread to document the life of Oscar. I'd like to just make one thread to post questions along with useful facts and information I've gathered from reading other threads on this forum. I also plan on posting pics along with updates of his husbandry and health. Specific...

not that this is helpful at all, but i have a male veiled named oscar too haha but if hes sleeping near the bottom of the cage during the day thats no good. it could also possibly be a hormonal type thing hes just started. ive heard of males getting meaner/aggressive when they are looking for...

theres one in cleveland right by hopkins airport tomorrow from 11-3 i think. theres a cham breeder/seller there also with quite a few veileds and some panthers.

ive heard that its good to use hot water from quite a few members, but after also reading that chams can burn themselves on heat lamps and whatnot without evening realizing it, how can they tell if the water is warm or cold when they can't feel the extreme temps of a heat lamp? im not trying to...

what type of calcium is it? you need to use cal w/o d3 daily and w/ d3 twice a month. you only need to supplement vitamins twice a month also. i have a 4 month old male and he eats around 8-10 small-medium sized crickets a day.

thats what i was kinda weary of...

hes got two umbrellas that take up over half the cage, and yes i do have it dripping onto some leaves. he likes to chomp on the wet leaves sometimes to get some water or just lick off of them, but i also notice him shooting his tongue out at the dripper. i have a tube connected to it, but i...

got a few questions regarding my juve male veiled: when i have his dripper going i sometimes see him shoot his tongue at the drips coming through the top of the cage. is it safe for his tongue to be making that much contact with the screen cage where its dripping through or should i make the...

well i filled out this questionaire to see if maybe i would get more responses. im still having no luck getting the ambient humidity up to par. im probably going to make a diy mister kit seeing that nothing else ive tried has worked, but my guy doesnt like being sprayed as it is. would...

ok cool, but what about when hes 8 months? then do i just switch to the 90f bulb? is there a way for me to gradually increase the temp? is 90f good for an adult? and any suggestions about my humidity problem or the uvb lights?

so i added another umbrella plant and have a humidifier running all day next to the cage, but the humidity still manages to drop all the way into the 20s. the whole bottom of the cage is almost completely filled with branches and leaves from my plants and its still getting really dry. the cage...
