??? how often should a 4 month old jackson's chameleon shed?

maybe it is the temp the ambient was up to 80. i dont think she should have felt threatened no one was around her when she started doing it and she is not aggressive

Anyone know what it means when a chameleon sits there with their mouth halfway open.

lol i want my jackson to be happy :)

thanks a lot guys saved me a good bit of money. when i get my taxes back and order my new cage im gonna buy a mist king i think.

i saw Zoo med habba mist at a local repltile store and i was wondering if it was worth spending the $70 on that mister. Has anyone had these and how well did they work?

yea i had noticed she was doing it mostly when she was hunting

why is it when chameleons walk they will sometimes rock back and forth while they walk. just curious

yea i have been reading a lot about different setups and i have a fairly good idea on what i am gonna do. Just gotta order my cage and find somewhere to buy a good plant to put in it.

that is true i could always section it off if needed 18x18x36 should be ok for an adult female Jackson too right. Then again by then i am sure i will build her a bigger custom cage.

yes i will be gettin live plants once i get the alum cage. And yes i was using bark as a substrate.

this is her just in the aquarium i got for her temporarily till i can order my alum screen cage. She just started to shed today also.

yes i am using a Reptisun 5.0 UVB bulb.

ok thanks a lot brad i appreciate the input. The only reason i was curious was because yesterday morning when i woke up it was about 60 degrees in the cage and she went straight for the basking light as soon as i turned it on.

would you recommend Fluker's calcium diet and cricket quencher as a good gutload? i planned on using Rep-Cal Calcium with Vitamin D3.(which i would use once a week approx?). and something that is calcium with no vitamin d for daily dusting? sorry for all the questions just wanna get a good idea...
