What do you all think of this?

Lol yeah red runners are wild, that's why chams like them. They do need a moisture source for their ooths to hatch. If you have a damp basement be careful. Even then the chance is low, I've known people to drop a bin full and they eventually all died off.

Okay that's good to hear. I dont have a basement and am currently keeping my bugs upstairs in a separate bedroom that shouldn't have any food for them or much moisture

...how the set up should look, the size and activity of the roaches, and general care regarding them...

Very interested! Videos would help so much. I think my eyes are going to start bleeding if I read one more "how to care for (insert feeder here)" article...

Yup roaches can cause allergies. I'm lucky so far to not have any(knocks on wood), but I wear a respirator and gloves if I'm cleaning. It might help to have a hepa filter, maybe some air purifying plants in the room as well. All that said regarding roaches, I think it is possible with crickets and really anything else with excessive dust frass.

That was the reason I had to get everything away (several species of Blaberus,Eublaberus etc). It wasn't seem to be too bad at the begining but after some time it was getting really serious. The only species that I could eventually keep is Nauphoeta cinerea.

Sorry to hear that, I've heard a few people that have had that happen.

Great idea James! I look forward to seeing your videos!

I would definitely watch those videos! I think they would be a great source of education for many types of keepers, not just those with chameleons.

I also think that if your personality comes through on camera the way it does over this forum, you will have a successful channel in no time!! Humor and roaches, how can you go wrong?

 

[CrisBruns]

That's exactly why I started making videos. My hands were getting tired writing novels haha. I'm excited to see more and more people starting to make chameleon related videos. As long as they are accurate, I say the more the merrier. The issue is when people start making videos that have incorrect info because then they are just adding to the problem :/

Love your videos!! So helpful!

 

[CrisBruns]

If you raise silkworms, please make a video on that too!

So you guys want me to rant about current events while going over cockroach care, got it

Thank you!!

Man I thought I did pretty good research before getting hooked on the most beautiful reptile out there, but just like with anything the more you know, the more you finding out how little you actually know, so please do it, that will be awesome.

 

[Chameleomom]

I have been away awhile but I think that would be a great thing. Wish I would have had those in the beginning

Haven't forgot about this... so much going on, gotta finish some projects and then I'll start working on videos.

To lazy to set up and edit. I feel you, I filmed a laying bin video but now it’s just sitting on my memory card waiting for the day I edit it ?

I might be too lazy for a lot of things, but I actually want to do this lol. The 2 toddlers just make any little project take 100x longer. We're redoing our kitchen and our bathroom floor... we get 1, maybe 2 days a week to work on it for few a hours. So once that's done, I'll be a little more free.

 

[Gingero]

People definitely underestimate how much time goes into filming, editing, and publishing videos ?

Who's underestimating? I have no intent to make flashy videos. Mine will be to the point and just trimmed. If I'm not getting paid, I'm not doing anything fancy haha. I'm not big on computers/videos/social media/etc. Yinz are gunna be laughing at me!

 

[Chameleomom]

I cant wait for these because I am a visual learner.

All the more reason to watch it!
