    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....

Show off your cages!

I thought it would be fun for everyone to show off their cham cages so we can all see them!

If anyone needs a photo hosted or your limit of storage is full here, you can email it to me at [email protected] and I will host it on my site and post it here for you.

So post away and lets have some fun!

Howdy,

I guess I'll kick things off with an old photo of my setup. My mist system is a lot better organized than in this photo:

Those setups are quite impressive, Dave. I bet you have some happy chams.

Photos are a tad out of date. Some new flora has been added.

You have quite a variety of flora. I love how you implemented bamboo into the setup. I like bamboo just by itself but it's even better in a setup like yours :)

Howdy,

Happy Chams come from California :)


Actually, even though they look rather utilitarian, their enclosures are pretty effective at satisfying their their basic needs for heat, UVB, and water with 2x20 minutes automated misting and a decent level of foliage and basking perches. They get silks, supers, roaches, waxs, and an occasional horn and cricket. When the weather is nice, they get weekend hours outside. They have another 3 enclosures outside too!
 
I like the fact that they get a lot of sunlight. :) I plan on making an enclosure for outdoor sunning for my beardies this spring. That way they can soak up some summer rays. A friend of mine puts his out for an hour or so everyday and he swears it makes a huge difference. I figure it can't hurt.
 
Will, that is so cool how they migrate. How do they go about feeding? Do they move to get food or wait for it to come to them?

WOW!!! I love the look of custom built cages. They add so much more to the setup than the manufactured cages do. The design on the cage to the far left is awesome.
 
Thanks Mike!! I love designing and building the cages (check out my BD cage! ..link in my sig)... Each one is a little better than the last.... It's too bad (I guess ;-) ) that you can't buy custom cages specifically meant for chameleons... You know, with the proper sized mesh and drainage options!!! Humm..... what a concept!!
 
Those are awesome!!! I like how it's a whole wall of enclosures.

Do you ever have problems with keeping all the plants alive? I suppose you can't use fertilizers and such, huh?

Mike,
Dont know if you were talking to Neils or me, but no, I dont have problems keeping the plants alive, infact, I have to do quite a bit of trimming. I don't use fertilizers of any kind. How 'bout you Neils?
