I would see if he can hold them for you, until after the storm and until you can get your stuff replaced.

@greenchamelons We made out well. Thank you for asking. The storm made a turn, so all we got was about 3 inches of rain.

I have a long way to go before all the enclosures are done and about 6 trees down. I just got laugh because things could be worse. 20 baby Leopard Geckos and a new edition of Giant Day Geckos along with some Crested Geckos. A lot to do in so little time. I guess I have my work cut out for me. Xantholophus Jackson’s are soon on the way too. Only 2 ficus and very slight m pickings of schefferla plants at the local plant nursery due storm damage. I hope I didn’t bit off more than I chew.

No I didn’t keep the reptiles out there. But everything feeder shipments are delayed which and the pet stores are still closed. I lost my stock of crickets and all my different feeders. My dubia roach colony has dwendled do to that’s the only thing have available right now. Thanks for the condolences! I lost several enclosures in that shed that were used for outside use and neonate chameleons.

Hope you all get better! Trust me, it will get better, hurricanes suck, but I guess it teaches you to be prepared.

Probably the most important thing right now is stay calm, especially during clean up.
@greenchamelons Glad you are OK. Sorry to see the damage. Hang in there.
Only silver lining is that you will have plenty of branches for your cages.

I received my enclosures from Bill Strand today. This is going to take longer that what thought to construct. Lights/fixtures came as well. Bought new plants ficus trees and pothos one for each. Going to have be very care where I but these nozzle installs front or back I put them on the back 2 corners last time. Is the front a better with with mist king?
I do the front corner by the door hinge. That just works for me. It's easy to readjust should a cham move it but I don't hit it by accident when I'm doing things. Some people swear by putting them front and center. The spray pattern will be a bit bigger but I don't remember the angle. The backs of my cages always have plastic on them so I don't worry about over spray.

I have to chuckle at this. But i think he envisioned a slightly different and more gentle way of putting them into the enclosures!
