Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them.

    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Substrate

I do not use any substrate with any species other than those of the rhampholeon or brookesia genus. It's just a recipe for disaster in most cases. I have seen and heard of people using good clean topsoil with chams but I personally prefer PVC board for the bottom of all my cages. Easy to clean and very light weight.
 
Usually,

I just line the bottoms of my reptariums with newspaper as it's the quickest to change, doesn't cost you a dime, and the chams don't mind a bit. Besides, the cleaner you keep your cage the less problems will arise in the future, and changing newspaper out of a cage only takes moments. Investing a few moments in changing cages and keeping them clean every few days is the best way to protect your investments in your chams, so I opt for the easiest effective way to do so. -Eric Lago *MS Reptilian Hobbyists*
