Hah! Sounds like a piggy to me, just make sure you don't over feed him.Originally Posted by BPelizabeth
nope but I will look into it definetly! He just went through a shed and has been drinking water like a madman. I am sure its because of the shed. He eats a boat load! lol Poo seems to be fine. I was just a little worried as his water intake has doubled! (maybe as his belly has doubled....lol)
I am going to order one of the drippers for him. Right now I typically just spray the top really well about 5 times a day so that the it creates water droplets for him. Then spray the leaves a bit.
Question.....is there any benefit to putting live plants as opposed to fake?Live plants are best as it provides a more natural environment for them and also aids in keeping the right humidity. I do use fake plants but only to add cover to the back of the cage... I have ficus and pothos in both my cages and they love them, it gives them lots of hiding places. 4 to 5 mistings sound okay as long as you let the cage dry between mistings, don't want any RI's or fungal infections. I made my own dripper and let that run most of the day just so that they have to option to drink when they want. Most of the time my little guy just drinks directly from they sprayer but just in case. I have 2 valves on my dripper and have a hose that runs to each cage. Oh and it's a good thing that he drinks a lot, let him drink all he wants.
These are pictures of when I only had my male so I had both hoses going into his cage.
