Hi

Just wondered if these, also known as Areca Palms, are ok to go in with panther chams? I think they look quite pretty but no doubt the locusts and crickets will munch on them so just want to make sure that won't cause any problems for the chams.

cheers

"In place of the removed plants, which ended up outside the fence, I installed a crape myrtle and an areca palm, both of which are generally considered safe." Cool

It's a dog site, should apply to reptiles as well.


They're native to Madagascar I believe too Smile

I've seen them in B&Q about 12 inches tall (I assume they are young plants). Would fit perfectly into my exo terra's. I'm guessing that the livefood will eat them quicker than they can out-grow the viv.
