Hi everyone, back when she was younger, Maggie burned her back (I’m still not 100% sure how as I’m anal about her basking branch) it’s never been an issues before, no pus or anything, but on her last shed this week, her spine didn’t shed properly, so we gently nudged the flap with a damp...

Hi everyone, My chameleon Maggie is responding really well to me feeding her from a bowl (which is attached to the side of the viv with suction cups) The only issue is that the only ones I could get hold of are see through... and this means that she sometimes tries to catch the bugs from...

It’s an Arcadia T5 D3

She likes being right at the top of the viv, on top of the plants in the right hand corner... so thinking I should keep to 6%

Hi, yes, this is it. Please excuse the brown paper on the side.

Hey guys, I’m getting conflicting advice, and can find stuff on the internet to support both POV I am in the UK, I have a glass viv with a mesh top. The UV light sits on top of the mesh. My question is.... 6% or 12% at this point I have both bulbs I just want to know which one. Btw, 4...

Thank you this is so helpful. I’ll order the bulb tonight and start adjusting the cage. My plan is definitely to lose the fake plants they were just a short term solution while I figured out (and sourced) some trailing/ climbing plants. The bark is orchid bark... the plan was/is to go...

Thank you, that means a lot that I’m not getting it totally wrong - I am honestly just wanting to have the happiest, healthiest Cham I can

Yes of course, here it is

yeah, that’s the one. Wow, I’m glad I asked as I’d read they were safe on a couple of websites. How annoying... but obviously better to know!!!

Thanks for your reply. The base of of the enclosure is 21/22 C, ambient round the top is 25/26C and then 30-33under the heat lamp. Humidity obviously spikes but sits around 50-55%. If that’s not the levels that it should be I am more than happy to be corrected! I will definitely take your advice...

Thanks so much for taking the time to speak with me on this... I’m just pulling my hair out as she is soooo tricky to get to eat. I have a cricket thing and a bowl, but I have left food in both for about 5 days and none has gone... she only seems to take when they are free in the cage. Ive...

I can’t see a reference to a feeder run on the link you sent... unless you mean the cricket feeder (which I have, but she doesn’t use) Do you recommend any other feeders that you can get in the appropriate size for her?
