Hi Kevin,
yes, I am getting anxious about my little guy! Deanna keeps sending me pics and I am going to get the cage set up in a couple weeks and get back in the habit of having more feeders around!
As for the FAQ...I don't see it as diagnosing or taking the place of a vet trip. It would be Q&A or Fact/Myth re: setup, stress, handling, temps, offering water, humidity, etc. If you go to the setup questions on the resource page you will get an idea of what I mean. That list is pretty comprehensive as to what needs to be considered before getting the cham but questions about those points are what need to be answered. I would do an outline, but do not have the time. Any "free" writing time needs to be a moneymaker for me right now
Here are two comprehensive beardie sites to give an idea of how it might be set up.
www.beautifuldragons.503xtreme.com/GeneralCare.html
www.beardiedragon.com/pages/Care/BD_Care_QA.html (this one has a drop down menu and it certainly would not have to be that labor intensive, just FAQ on one page(s).
you said:
...I know it gets a little frustrating hearing all the newbie ?'s just because they didnt read or research before buying but it kinda goes with the teritory being a forum and all.
yes, to some degree and that is why the resource page was created. For me, if I am thinking of asking a Q to a forum I have not been to before I do a search over the recent couple weeks (at least) to see if I can find it covered. Granted, not everyone will do that, but if we can at least send them to the FAQ page and then have them come back with specific questions it may save time and effort. But then again, other than me and maybe 2 or 3 other poeople I don't even see the Resource page linked or suggested. I think I have taken this as far as I can, someone else will have to pick up the ball...
