Welcome!

I spent $50 on a large umbrella plant and killed it within 2 months. Haha. I have had the same ficus for 2 years but it only has leaves left on the top and looks pathetic. Pothos however I have never had an issue keeping alive and recently purchased one at lowes that has all the vines tied up a...

You are correct but if he is only at 75deg in his hottest spot removing those extra lights without upping the wattage on the other bulb could lower his temp more. I would think anyway.

Awesome! Welcome!

Is the tube UVB a reptisun? I would keep the dome lights and put a hotter bulb in there to raise the basking temperature. Like Jannb recommended the basking temp should be about 10 degrees hotter than what you have. I contacted Todd Goode from Lightyourreptiles recently via email with a picture...

Can you move his cage off the floor to maybe a desk? I see that the current temp is 65-75 deg. Is 75 his basking temp? Also I live in Michigan as well and winter months it is really hard to keep humidity up so you may want to mist him more often or put some plastic on the cage to help hold...

It looks like your cage is sitting on the floor. I would put it on top of something and get it up higher. See if that helps. The higher he is the less threatened he will feel when you approach his enclosure.

Someone just had one for sale at the reptile expo here in Michigan 2 weeks ago. I could try and reach out to them and get you their contact info if you are interested. I see you are in Texas so it is not exactly ideal but an option.

Now just imagine if you had to spend this much time learning about every pet/product they sold in the store. I shop at the local Pet Supplies plus but they do not take care of their pets properly but I buy dog supplies from there. I do enjoy to talking with some of the employees though because...

OK Thanks for the feedback. I just wanted to make sure he was acting normal and showed no signs of MBD. I talked to the Vet about bringing him in for a check up and they recommend once a year. They said they normally do not see these guys until they are real sick. It is $73 for a check up and...

I am pretty sure Oolong is healthy but I see so many posts about people's cham's having health issues that it has a little concerned lol. I am positive I am doing everything correctly but Oolong is my first Chameleon and maybe I overlook things. He is currently about a year and a half old. One...

Thanks (y)

Oolong is roughly 1.5 years old now. In this time I have only taken him out of his enclosure a dozen times or so because he just holds on for dear life inside. But I do like to get him outside when it’s nice or I need to do a thorough cleaning of his cage. Other than that I just hand feed him a...
