Yes, that's true too. Thank you for elaborating on that :) I think if I remember from previous posts OP didn't have a baby but I definitely could be mistaken.

The amount of feeders you need depends on the age of your chameleon. They should only be fed once a day, in the morning so they have time to digest.

Awww poor guy. I know some animals (big cats) will chew on their tails from stress, and others will lick their paws until they're raw (dogs in my experience) but I don't know if chameleons have the same tendency. Hopefully another keeper has had experience with the cause and/or treatment for...

He's handsome! Has anything in his environment around him changed? A new stimuli could be throwing him off? I remember @Beman saying in a different post her cham got thrown off because the neighbor got a new car and the color change effected him. Basking temps are a bit high, I believe it's 85...

Sending you and Kiwi positive vibes!

That's so exciting! I'm glad Jack seems to be more active :)

Hyde likes to hang out with her food half in mouth like a cat proudly displaying it's catch. At least in this picture she has most of it 🤣

Yeah I like having the dripper as a backup and to give her another option to drink if she chooses. She's pretty secretive and the times I caught her drinking if she saw me she gave me a mean side eye and stopped. I'm not typically home during the day so it's a nice piece of mind that there is...

I angle my dripper so it falls on lots of the leaves from the ficus and cascade down so she can drink water off the leaves, and angled away from the heat lamps. Although I have only seen my chameleon drink the dew off the top of her screen that's left over from her night time fogging.

I use a little dripper and then fog at night for hydration. However I know a lot of other suggestions have been to make your own dripper by putting a small hole in a container where 1 drop per second comes out. The little dripper works okay in my opinion but you do have to tweak it fairly often...

Thank you! Great to hear your personal experiences as well. Always good to hear from all the experienced keepers in my opinion. :)

That's really helpful information as it comes from your personal experience. Thank you :)

I remember reading that thread it was very interesting and do remember it coming across as fairly heated. I don't have the same experience level as many of the keepers here and was just sharing the information that was given to me (although eventually plan on getting a solarmeter to help ensure...

If you have the zoomed reptisun T5HO bulb, it should be replaced every 6 months and the Arcadia 6% bulbs can be replaced once a year. If you have a solar meter you can better track the UVI levels and replace based off that. That's what I've learned from the more experienced keepers here :)

I'm glad Jack is on the mend! Love his colors! Sending all the positive vibes that he keeps on getting better :)
