Love GTP's and would love to own one, but I do know they are more of a challenge.. I was wondering if anyone had some good links for GTP care. I've looked online and found bits and pieces of info.. just wondering what ya'll used for your info. thanks in advance..

Check out a morelia forum and see what you can find. There are some people on the forum who own GTPs, so you can discuss your questions with them and they may show you pics of their setups so you know what to have in your setup.

If you can keep carpets, you can keep chondros. The only real difference is they are arboreal....and very easy to keep.

I agree with Brandon they are not as hard to keep as most think, it’s just about doing a little research and having the knowledge. Proper housing can really make it easy to keep them too.

I recommend Greg Maxwell’s book "The More Complete Chondro".
The book is outstanding and very helpful

Ditto - they're not all that difficult to keep!

In reality, they are actually probably one of the easiest captives you can keep. They feed once every 7-10 days and only crap about once every 2-4 weeks. The only real maintanance is daily spraying.

Thank you all for the help.. maybe one day I'll own one. Gotta do a lot of reading first!

Once you have the animals cage and its requirements on point and consistent then you should have no problems! Good luck
