The stand should be here tomorrow but I can find something to get it a few inches off the cage in the meantime. Should I get the other bulb you recommended instead of this one?

This is the bulb I’m using. I think I do need to lower her branch but I want to wait until she has her eggs so I don’t mess her up. If this is the wrong one I can go to the store and get a different one.

It’s not under the uvb. I ordered a stand to raise up the light but in the mean time I have extra screening for my lanai so I cut a small square out of the roll and put it under the heat lamp so it doesn’t continue to blast her with too high of temps. Is there a lower wattage than 50 that you...

I moved the temperature probe towards the center and it read 85. (Not good I know) I added a few layers of extra screening to keep the temperature down until she had her eggs and this morning it’s reading 81. I will be rearranging her set up so her basking area isn’t in such a high temp area...

Okay I will make these changes. Thank you for the help!

I didn’t think I was over feeding her. I was following the instructions I was given in the last post I made and I must’ve mis read them. I thought at 6-7 they still got fed daily?

Sorry I’m trying my best to get her tail in but I can’t seem to get it

Your Chameleon - Veiled Chameleon, Female, 7-8 months (estimated) Handling - Rarely handle. Once a month maybe Feeding - 4-5 large crickets dusted in repti calcium once a day, everyday. 3 reptivite dusted crickets twice a month. I give the crickets the cricket food they sell at the store...

It’s behind her tail. Should it be in the center of the basking area? I have it on the edge because I was afraid she’d mess with it

I’m not sure but she just started developing her colors 2 months ago

I use one with a wired probe end

I have been giving her 4-5 large crickets dusted in the repti calcium every day and then twice a month I give her 3 dusted with reptivite

Sorry I forgot to add she does have a laying bin

Here is a full pic I took of her while she was doing it. She just developed her colors around 2 months ago. She only does it in her basking area which is currently at 81 degrees.

This is a photo of her from the front
