Supplies:

Sticky Tongue Farms - They are the manufacturers of the Miner-All O, Miner-All I supplements and Vit-All, a gutload for feeders.

Feeder Gutload by Steve Sims - Gutloading your feeders with a variety of ingredients is one of the best ways to supplement your chameleon's diet.  You can make your own gutload or purchase it pre-made.  For several months, we have been using Steve Sim's Cricket Crack formula which has made feeding easier for us.  To order this product, visit the TikiTiki Reptiles website or email Steve Sims.

Incubating Eggs:  The Mini Fridge-Warmer was recommended to me by a long-time hobbyist and I must say that ever since I started using it, my fertile clutches have had a much higher hatch rate.  I would highly recommend it to anyone with a small chameleon breeding project.  It is worth the $100.  The temperature is kept within 5 to 6 degrees of what you set it at.  You must use an additional temp gauge to monitor the temp fluctuations.  I have not had any problems with the ones I use.

Aluminum Screened Cages

We sell all aluminum screened enclosures made in the U.S.A.  These enclosures are of exceptional quality.  We have been using these cages in our greenhouse for almost two years without any signs of rust.  Please visit our store to purchase cages and to support ChamEO.

Temporary Cages for Neonates and Newly Acquired Chameleons

We use the small net cages (#S1) from Live Monarch to house newly acquired rescues.  They are very light weight which make moving them to and from a shower or in and out of the sun very easy. When not in use, they can be washed and folded flat for easy storage.
