pgrVII Posted August 7, 2015 Author Share Posted August 7, 2015 how ADORABLE! Will AJ be that green????? I love that color . Cool! How big is that?I was looking for a breeder female last night. Ended up finding a 21g that I think I can't live without! She's PINK! Well, she's called a red bi-color. But she looks pink. I would love to have her. But the cost is high and I really need a breeder.I totally missed your question! What a dunce I am lol.It's not huge about the size of maybe a large Fiji water bottle in looks like. Maybe a bit smaller 2 Quote Link to comment

pgrVII Posted August 7, 2015 Author Share Posted August 7, 2015 Wow, that is really nifty. I was expecting slower flowing water in it though. Yea it moves pretty quickly! It's probably hard to control flow with such a tight space and pump I'd imagine. But will definitely help the chameleon recognize that it's the main source of drinking water 1 Quote Link to comment

He may even decide to take his own showers in it if it is big enough for him to feel supported! You truly have pimped his home out. 1 Quote Link to comment

Well I will agree it's pimped out,it's actually standard husbandry practices for keeping chameleons,specifically a jacksons chameleon And thanks! 2 Quote Link to comment
Merthynia Posted August 7, 2015 Share Posted August 7, 2015 I'm pretty sure you've taken the standard husbandry practices and taken them to the nth degree! Lol 3 Quote Link to comment

Lol I wish I could have gotten away with cheaper a bit but this is why I waited so long to get this chameleon,they require a lot more time and care than most lizards. Which equals more money lol. 3 Quote Link to comment

gena Posted August 7, 2015 Share Posted August 7, 2015 So incase you were wondering how to properly feed an Action Jackson.... That's a gourmet kitchen right there . That watering station is awesome! Smaller than I initially thought, thinking it was for showering. But actually a place to get a drink ...that's a nifty gadget! Hey, I'm sure I miss questions too...don't feel bad . 2 Quote Link to comment

Hey, I'm sure I miss questions too...don't feel bad .You may, but you're also the crested princess and easily action jacksons biggest follower so that's why it was important. My order for Dubia roaches comes next week,you should look at them gena if you wanna do feeders combined with worms,they are easy,don't bite,can't jump,or climb smooth surfaces. 2 Quote Link to comment

Well the thought of bringing roaches into the house though freaks me out a bit LOL. I fed some wax worms this week. They sure do love them! I think it may be enough as a treat and then just the crested gecko diet as the main source of food. 2 Quote Link to comment

I mainly fed mine the same kinda thing and used crickets 2 times a month. They are so easy to keep luckily. Here's the water tray I ordered too. 2 Quote Link to comment
Psychosis Posted August 7, 2015 Share Posted August 7, 2015 This reminds me of all the Brookesia I wanted as a wee boy. Wound up with Phyllobates vittatus instead. 2 Quote Link to comment

gena Posted August 7, 2015 Share Posted August 7, 2015 Well yes and no lol its expensive keeping an action jacksonTrue . Is breeding them very costly? Considering all the requirements for them, I'm going to guess yes. 1 Quote Link to comment
pgrVII Posted August 7, 2015 Author Share Posted August 7, 2015 True . Is breeding them very costly? Considering all the requirements for them, I'm going to guess yes. Yes and difficult,if you look around there aren't many breeders of them,chameleons don't tolerate other chameleons well,even opposite sex,so you need two cages genrally. I will be looking more I to this more as I get a better handle on general husbandry. 1 Quote Link to comment

I will be looking more I to this more as I get a better handle on general husbandry.Breeding seems to be the next step once you "master" the reptile as far as habitat and care. I had no intention of breeding crested geckos. But I just love them so much that I/we want to do that now. I'm sure you will be at that point with AJ someday too . 1 Quote Link to comment
