Between work and the online shop I haven't really had time to finish sifting through the sand. I found one so far and that's it. There is still quite a bit of sand in that bin as it's rather huge. When I get a day off from work I want to sift through the rest of it to be sure but so far only...

Thanks for the reminder. She does need some more branches but I've been busy with work and the shop. As far as feeding, I was planning on going down to every other day but she's been quite verbal about being hungry after laying her eggs. She looms over the food bowl looking for something to eat...

Wanted to pop in and say thanks to everybody that helped, particularly Lindasjackson. I really appreciate all the information as well as the cage,plants and Dragon Ledges. I can't thank you enough so, thank you. She made it through her first clutch of eggs just fine. I only found one egg but...

Looks sharp, I was really impressed with the setup. I was happy to help and learned a lot as well. Now that you donated your old cage and plants, I got some work to do myself to get my girl more comfortable. I'll pick up a bulb tomorrow and use the 24 inch fixture I completely forgot I had set...

That is incredibly generous. I might take you up on that offer. I did look at cages and they aren't super bad but even 120 bucks is difficult at this time. I lost my job back in March and Started a business on top of everything. I sell doll clothing and accessories so, if that's your thing go...

I have play sand if that's what you mean. I use it with the Ackie enclosure so no shortage of play sand here. I'll keep an eye on her regardless to make sure she doesn't gorge on it.

"Here is the problem, you are trying to measure "natural light" or "mimicked natural light". UVI is the standard for measuring natural light. There is no direct translation, but a rule of thumb is 35-45:1 ratio. So if your meter is saying 40uW/cm2, odds are your bulb is putting out 1 UVI." I...

Skittles and kinyonga, thank you. Excellent answers and I appreciate it. I suspected she might be a horn dog but wanted confirmation. I also wanted to address any other possible issues before they become complications. I greatly appreciate it. I really wish I had sprung for the 6.5 but I didn't...

I had already read about the blue light earlier today so I'll be picking up a normal one. Her highest basking sight is 85F with plenty of places to rest below this if she chooses. It didn't occur to me to cover the plants with rocks but I had already gotten rid of most of them by the time I had...

Tried posting photo's but they were too large so I need to know the size and dimension requirements to resize them. I'll look at the article when I have more time, thank you.

When it comes to lighting I want to know what UV reading I should be getting in mW/cm2 or uW/cm2 because a proper keeper would measure the level of light inside the enclosure and keep track over time to be sure the animal it's getting the correct dose and the light is functioning properly. More...

Not offended and not trying to be rude but I hear way too many opinions on lights with no real numbers or anything to back it up. I've heard a dozen different bulbs from a dozen different people so don't take offence when I ask for specific information. You are supposed to use a meter as that's...

Like I said I appreciate the input. It's just you are telling me I need a cage this big with a bulb this big. I don't have a cage that big, however. I have one this big. Thus, my lighting requirements are different. When it comes to lighting, what I would really like to know is what kind of...

The only other bulb I have on hand is a 12 inch 10.0 but I would feel more comfortable knowing what kind of UVB readings I should expect inside the cage. While I appreciate the input, don't get me wrong, saying you need this bulb or that bulb means absolutely nothing when you factor in things...

Chameleon Info: Your Chameleon - Female Veiled. She was 3 months when I purchased her and I've had her for 4 months at least. I'm terrible with dates and time but I'd guess she's 7-8 months. Handling - Only when she comes to me and for very short periods. I might bring her out in the shaded sun...
