    Bamboo forest - throwing it in the oven for Enclosure use

    I bake branches at 300 degrees for 1 1/2 - 2 hours after cleaning with bleach water and rinsing well.

    The Offer

    He looks healthy. Good looking boy. If the setup is something you'll use and comes with most everything then I think $350 is fair. I would probably recommend you change the UVB bulb when you get him though, just to be safe.

    Bulging eyes/loss of balance resulting in death

    You may be right about the pygmys and earth. I was speaking in general with most chameleons but pygmys may be the exception, idk. Good luck with the remaining two. It's tough losing an animal prematurely.

    Bulging eyes/loss of balance resulting in death

    I think there are a few things here. First, ditch the aquarium. They need to be housed SEPERATELY in screen cages like reptibreeze, dragonstrand, etc. just having the top open is not adequate ventilation. Housing them together can be very stressful. They are solitary creatures and need to be...

    Is there such thing as too much uvb?

    Why would you put two 5.0 when you could put a 10.0 and a plant bulb or 6500k day bulb or such in it? I'm not saying it's wrong, I'm just curious. IMHO 5.0 reptisun or a 6% Arcadia is plenty. I believe there is such thing as too much but I wouldn't be able to tell you adverse effects. The higher...

    Grow lights for plants?

    LightYourReptiles.com seems like the "go to". An alternative is aquatraders.com. I have their quad fixture with 2 6500k day bulbs, 1 plant bulb as well as a UVB bulb purchased elsewhere.

    Need help on cage size please!!!

    A 16x16x30 is good for a new Cham. You'll have to upgrade once he/she hits a growth spurt though, prob around 5-6 months. I upgraded to a dragon strand atrium cage. https://www.chameleonforums.com/atrium-cage-setup-142012/ As far as getting a new Cham. Just check out the site sponsors list...

    How do you know if your plant is fully clean?

    I clean my plants the same way you did. I think you should be good to go.

    Different Dragon Strand Cages?

    I have the Atrium. My dude seems to like it. I used The advanced setup guide on the dragon strand website. I posted the pics a couple weeks back. https://www.chameleonforums.com/atrium-cage-setup-142012/

    Mold?

    You could also treat it. I sanitize my branches with bleach water. Scrub and then rinse really well with cold water. I then put them in the oven at 300 degrees for 2 hrs. It should kill the organisms including bacteria and fungus. I mist for 3 mins 4x/day and have not had any problem. I think...

    Chameleon Trying to Escape?

    spags is going where I was going. I'm also wondering about the size of the cage. If I were you I would ditch the glass terrarium and go with an all screen cage like a reptibreeze or a higher end DragonStrand, Although there are other brands of all screen cages that'll suffice. If you have a 5...
