    New to reptiles.

    Hi there and welcome! I was having the cricket issue as well. I found that when you put a piece of egg carton in the container with the crickets it makes a huge difference. The pet stores often give you a small piece without you asking so if you ask they will surely comply. About a week and...

    Oh he's so adorable I just want to snuggle next to him! For some reason my gmail is down... it's up on my phone but not on my computer so I can't upload what I've sent to myself. (very high tech over here) But here is the pic I took of Devlin sleeping the other night and this is not our first...

    Ok we had a bath - I'll upload pics and videos :) Also - cricket update: they seem to be doing VERY well with the egg crate piece in there. NO dead ones! can you believe it? I took the tubes out because they don't seem to care about the tubes with the egg crate piece in there. So to feed I...

    We have the container with the tubes too. We now have an egg crate piece in with the crix and the tubes to see if that makes a difference... kind of a trial and error thing over here. How long has your husband had his chameleon? Devlin doesn't seem to want anything other than crickets so we...

    Oh wow that's awesome news! Congratulations! How many crickets do you buy at a time and how are you storing them? I bought wax worms once for Devlin but they didn't take. She had no interest.

    Hi Jess- This is something I typed to respond to your message but figured I might as well keep it public incase anyone has feedback. That's why we are here, right? :) That is so funny! We have cats (2) and they hover constantly. The first night we brought D home we shut our bedroom door to...

    Hi Jess! Adorable little beardie. Do you know if it is m/f? Our Devlin is unknown. I call it her and my boyfriend calls it him since he is rooting for another boy. We have 2 female cats and he wants another guy on his side ;) what is Ramses eating? How old?

    Day 6 as a Beardie Owner

    Hi Bush, Devlin came from a local breeder. I'm very happy to be a member of the forum. Here is a pic of our most recent tank set up and also one of Dev sleeping from last night. Here is a cosmetic question: how do I get my pics to post right side up? On my computer they look fine but...

    Day 6 as a Beardie Owner

    Whoooooops! I gave you the wrong light info. Sorry to worry - 13W Reptile UVB 150 (Exo Terra Brand) Additionally, we use a laser thermometer that allows us to check any spot in the tank. Will make the adjustments to get the temp up to 110.

    Hi Germ, wow - you are informative. Makes me glad I joined! Thank you for all of the valuable info. I am working on making sure I fall within all of your guidelines. We do have the lights on a timer. I understand the importance of consistency. The UVB bulb we are using is a 75 watt Exo...

    Day 6 as a Beardie Owner

    We have actually ordered quite a few supplies and they should arrive today, hence some of the makeshift structures. Devlin's in a 20 gallon aquarium with a basking and UV light on 13 hrs/day and nothing at night. Temp in house doesn't drop below 74 and neither does habitat at night. We've...

    Day 6 as a Beardie Owner

    Here are some questions regarding appetite: Devlin has a very healthy appetite for pinhead crickets. I tried to introduce wax worms a couple days ago: put 3 in a small shallow bowl and brought her over to it. She picked one up in her mouth, seemed to taste it, and put it back down and had no...

    Nope no sand in the habitat at all. Just paper towels right now. I've read and heard about all of the dangers of impaction. Good looking out though! :)
