They would be for a completely different species of reptile. Thank you both for your replies. My husbnd and I have decided to throw the vine away, and just use the fake plants once sanitized well and rinsed thoroughly. Thanks, again!

We had a chameleon who had a respiratory infection. I would really like to reuse the vine and fake plants in his tank for another reptile. Would this be possible? I know the RI is contagious. The plants (silk leaves) haven't been touched in over 30 days, just sitting in our garage. I soaked...

Thanks for all of the replies. I just got home from work and my husband had text me that he had passed while I was gone. In a last ditch effort to save him last night, I had found this post and did what was recommended. The vet agreed that it was better than leaving the enclosure the way it was...

We bought a juvi Chameleon about 1 month - 1 1/2 months ago. Where we got him from was pretty sketchy anyways. I've only seen him eat 4 crickets within the first 2 weeks, then I cage fed as he wouldn't eat from a cup. So I am actually unsure if he has eaten recently. He is pretty skinny, his...

I purchased a male juvi veiled chameleon a week ago, but he has only ate 2 crickets in that time. I let them in the cage the first 3 days, then started feeding from a cup attatched to the cage. He has only ate on wednesday, and no other days. He has no interest in dubia. I have pulled him out 3...

Thank you, nightanole. I currently have a CFL 26w Reptile UVB 100 on the cage (previously known as a ReptiGlo 5.0). I know for a fact that CFL's are bad for reptile eyes, but needed a source of UV for a week or 2. Until a day ago, when I was told CFL's don't give out enough UV for Veileds. I'm...

I have a male Juvenile Veiled Chameleon in a 18w"x12d"x20h" screen cage. I will be making a much larger enclosure in a few months. I also will be purchasing a T5 ho for the new cage, possibly an Arcadia, but need something now for the smaller cage. Will either one of these fixtures work? Zilla...
