That came out wrong...I meant don't feed fruit daily. New laptop and not quite used to how sensitive the mouse pad thinger is and apparently I tend to delete words...meh.

plants
 

great, had to show the boss this thread. and now she wants one. no pets just plants!
any good books to start with or web sites!
thanks for the time

I am inspired by this thread, too! Those pics are great - keep them coming! I'd hauled an old aquarium out of the garage to cycle over the holidays, but decided that it would make a better terrarium (so I *ahem* picked up a new tank today to finish the cycling - LOL).

Stay tuned! I will probably have terrarium questions soon :P

how big will the tank be?

15 gallon tall

need some up dates!

My three froggies are fat and happy, there has been some trial and error with plants but what's there now grows like crazy.

My daughter has a chameleon, 'Spike' in a small 10 gallon converted to reptile use. He's growing fast and I've bought some lumber hoping to make a larger terrarium for the critter in time for xmas. Any leads or suggestions on building your own using wood & screening etc.??

I just setup this extro for some Lygodactylus williamsi

for chameleons don't use screen that is used in sceen doors. Its been known to pull out their nails. Use something that has a 1 cm hole and than feed your chameleon with a cup. The cup must be transparent so the chameleon can see that food is in it and will eventually learn that he or she will learn where to actually get the food. Also hand feed the guy at different distances so that she or he can fully use their tongue. when a chameleon only uses it at certain lengths this can slowly leed to being unable to use it and you will have to hand feed them.

What type of chameleon is it? for veiled and panthers an enclosure that is 4'x4'x2' is best, millers are ok in the same size and depending on the species of jacksons you can get away with a smaller enclosure.

dude, that moss is a pain in the A$$ for crickets. they hide in it and are near impossible to catch! looks good though.

these photos are a little dated, as many have changed or gown in some. I have also added many more enclosures for rearing of the copious young .

this is a vacant viv at the moment

Great pics Kevin, I love the "plants in bamboo" idea

No Worries because I wont be feeding crickets!!!!!

I am going to keep them on the Repashy prepared food to treats once or twice a week of Microworms and fruit Flies!!

Those little guys with the green heads if you have lots of them I would be happy to help reduce your numbers. I love these guys and want to set up a few tanks of different Lygodactylus, Crested Gecko, Peacock Geckos, and maybe some Giant Day Geckos.

Actually I wouldnt mike some of the Kimhowelli if you have those too.

I will PM you my # maybe we can talk more.
