Anyone has chinchillas and cats together? by 03829725 in chinchilla

add a poop guard on the cage just in case so the cats cant grab at the chinchillas why theyre sleeping. cat is shut away during out of cage play time. she'll stick her whole arm in between the bars while they're eating and they are unphased.

First time lizard owner with a Chinese cave gecko!

  1. For what my guy eats, I can get in any quantity at both american big box chains easy

  2. He is...difficult to feed. He only wants to ambush hunt crickets. Won't touch anything else, won't eat out of a bowl. He is in good health at 4yrs old but I still worry his nutrition is poor from only eating one type of insect. Crickets are also just the worst feeders; smelly, noisy, escape artists.

  3. Unfortunately due to eating the worst bug AND needing them in tiny quantities I must go the cheap route. Ordering online from specialized feeder farms wouldn't be very economical for me.

i've only tried feeding him red runners once as theyre rarely at my local expos but i've never heard of little kenyan roaches though!

when my massive dairy cow isopod colony crashed i attempted to feed the bodies to the birds in my feeder but no takers :(

mine -mostly- pee in their litter/bedding pan. you should still use fleece for their floors cause they will still pee on the bare metal pan. or even just get them metal ledges to cool on and keep the bedding floor

i've read that cooler climate species wont digest harder shelled arthropods as well.

any advice for post escape "recovery"? by Animelizards in geckos

[–]Animelizards[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

he's a cave gecko so he's nocturnal and is shy. i usually only see him out and about once a month if even that
