Hi. Beautiful boy! 🥰 You’ve got some great larger plants. Are you looking to add smaller ones? Pothos is the workhorse for chameleons and does come in different varieties. If you place it on the bottom and train it to grow upwards, the leaves will grow bigger. Tradescantia zebrina is another...

Hi there. I’m guessing that your chameleon has mbd, which is causing his casque to collapse. This is serious and it would be best to go over all of your husbandry in order to make sure everything is correct and/or corrected. If he indeed does have mbd, it is eventually fatal. It’s hard to tell...

Your Chameleon - Veiled Chameleon, Female, 7-8 months (estimated) Handling - Rarely handle. Once a month maybe Feeding - 4-5 large crickets dusted in repti calcium once a day, everyday. 3 reptivite dusted crickets twice a month. I give the crickets the cricket food they sell at the store...

He had the dragon strand hybrid cage. Because we were having a hard time maintaining humidity and temps in a regular screen. So the hybrid cage works like a chimney effect. He’s done well in this cage up until I had that basking bulb blow then everything went down hill.

Welcome and great questions. There some amazing people here that can help. I would also recommend check out chameleonacademy.com there's great information regarding humidity.

Having the option to change out the doors to screen, that is what I would opt to do. T5 is the type of light fixture. It’s linear and you want it to be able to span the entire width of your enclosure. The strength of the uvb is what levels of uvb it puts out. 6% is what is ideal for chameleons...

Yeah I am not good at panthers this young. lol. Good news is your husbandry is the same for male or female at this age. you will want to raise that UVB fixture off the top of the cage. Baby can get far too close to it. If it is a T5HO with a 5.0 bulb raise it 4 inches off the top. If you...

Welcome to the forum. So they shed as they grow when they are young... Looking at what I can see of your cage and the lighting on top I would recommend a husbandry review if you have not done one. Growth issues can be linked to husbandry issues. If you would like to do this then you would copy...

All of your husbandry looks good, but I have questions about your supplements. Is your ReptiVite with or without D3? Are you giving the ReptiVite and D3 the same day or week? Assuming the ReptiVite is without D3 - to simplify your life you could get it with D3 or switch to Repashy calcium plus...

They are each in their own enclosures. They can't really see each other because i have plastic sheeting around sides and backs of each to maintain humidity. I got pic 1 may last year and they said they think she was about 7months. I do have a egg bin in her cage. I only feed her every 3 days...

Oh wow this might have actually helped a LOT!! The window insulation film sounds like a near perfect idea and I think I will try that soon since I also have the bottom screen door to produce the chimney effect. I will update for whenever I try this method! Thank you.

He is a male veiled chameleon approximately one year old. I’ve had him for 7ish months. I handle him usually once a week to check on his eyes and general health. He eats 10 medium Dubia roaches every other day that are gut loaded with potatoes or any other scrap fruit or vegetables we have...
