Hello all, Just wondering if any individuals have any experience in keeping desert horned lizards or Phrynosoma platyrhinos. I have a question concerning burying themselves. Mine has been buried for a day now and did not emerge to eat or bask. Day temps are consistent at 115 to 120 at the...

hello, My jackson is starting to get a little hot during the day in my room so I was hoping I could move him outside but don't want to move him back and forth from my room to outside so I was hoping I could just leave him out but the nights are still a bit chilly in the mid to high 30's where I...

My lights are off at 7 pm. He has been in my care for over a month now. He really seems to be going off the natural light, because literally nothing else seems wrong, but saying that is always a stretch because we are talking about chameleons haha. I am very sorry to hear Ryker is blind. How did...

Hello, My adult male jacksons chameleon is acting strange. In the morning everything is normal, when lights turn on and sun is coming in through the window screen he is up and walking around. By about 4 pm when the sun leaves the window he descends again back to his sleeping spot under leaves...

I was thinking the same but I guess I was just too hopeful the cup method would catch on. My veiled worships the cup haha Ill try and place some feeders on leaves, but this is always frustrating beccause the feeders hide somewhere forever until you clean the cage and find them all. Hopefully...

What is the nutritional value of flies? Do you have any recommendations of good places to acquire snails? My temps at night get down to 64-65 ambient, and during the day can be up to 80 degrees ambient although the temps dont seem to bother him I have seen him at his basking spot when temps at...

I believe he is an adult. I bought him classified as a medium to large jacksons. He is captive bred as well. Will blue bottle flies or snails have any decent nutritional value? I definitely did not know that about their metabolism that explains things haha. The only reason I am trying to get him...

Hey guys, I currently have a jacksons chameleon that will only eat black soldier flies...any suggestions on getting him to eat anything else? I breed roaches, hornworms, superworms, and waxworms, as well as phoenix worms. Thank you!!!!

He would be free roaming on a live plant.

Like 20 to 40% on a sunny day

hello! I hope everyone's day is going well. I had a question regarding keeping jacksons chameleons outside. Does anybody do this? If you do how do you do it? Meaning how do you keep humidity for them at a good level? I'm wondering because I would like to keep mine outside for a couple days at a...

Looks like he is under it now I upped the light to a light that has a stronger UVB output. Haha thank you for the help!

Bought a strip today and I am setting it up tomorrow to provide a larger area of uvb im also gonna move him into a 24X24X48 inch screen cage because his free range setup is starting to make me nervous about him getting sufficient UVB, water, food etc. works for my veiled just fine it seems but...

Dont worry one day it will happen :) When it does it will be awesome! haha

To deal with poop I have towels laid out to be appropriate with the radius of where they can possibly be on the tree at any one time it works like a charm although they poop on there trees 90% of the time...haha
