i would have to agree. the mv can provide both. i beefed up my foilage to give more places to reteat to. and when shaded they still get uvb. with simulated shade, what happens when they go into the shade do they then recieve no uvb?

i have used a mega-ray now for about 9 months. my male veiled has no sign of uv burn. his color has improved greatly. on the negitive side it does zap alot of humidity from the air. i don't use it for basking heat though. i use a 75 watt water resitant bulb. i had a blood smear done last month...

my veiled is massive, close to 22". i think brad said the jackson was 7 or 8 months old.

thanks. he is in 18" round 36"tall right now. i am getting ready to go to lowes to get the stuff to make a new cage with drainage tub(18X24X30). then i can hook up the mist king. has anyone free ranged a jacksons? I put him on a large scheff while i hooked up his dripper. he looked very happy.

i fed mine as much as he would eat at first.(15-25 large a day) I was told on this forum that could be bad. so i gradualy cut him down to 10-15.that was from age 5 months to 7 months. he is about 22" long now at 1 year old. this might be the reverse for you. it may have adapted to eating less.

before i got my mega-ray i used the reptisun iguana. i think it was 7.0 but im not shure.

that was not directed at any one person.

no offence, but violence is the last resort of a limited mind.

a simular thing happend to me. I would post hundreds of posters in the area saying, "chameleons stolen from breeding ranch any tip leading to perpatrators will be rewarded with *say* $100.00." you would be suprised at how quick someone will rat. i had a skate board stole from in front of my...

Hello, just got back from reptile expo. I got a male jacksons from brad ramsey. it is soo little compared to my veiled. having said this i am thinking the enclosure i have is too big. what is the proper size for juvie-adult jacksons? also do they eat plants?

ill be there. been waiting, finished second cage a week ago. lookin to get an inhabitant from brad at show.

i put a paper towel tube in with mine. it fits snug onto the plastic bottle i use for dusting. i put it on bottle and tap a few times, thats all it takes. no chance for escape.

i have no experience with ceramic heaters. i like you thought i was gonna be able to do it all with one bulb. Tip i also use a timer that makes my (mega-ray) come on 2hrs after basking light comes on. and 2hrs earlyier than it shuts off to better simulate true dusk and dawn. the risk would be...

thats what i would suggest. i have used that setup for about 5 months. i use a 60w outdoor bulb for heat( it is splash resistant, i have auto mister and dripper. i don,t want bulb to shatter.) but 60-75 watt standard bulb is fine.?? is that a florecent light on top?

just a suggestion, you might want to put some denser plant life in there. it will create shaded places to get away from direct heat.
