    New chameleon keeper (husbandry check)!!

    I read up about it and people are saying it’s because of the high humidity and lack of air flow and they are putting small fans on top of the enclosure to circulate the air flow as well as cleaning their fogger weekly. I do already have a fan but it is pretty big and won’t fit on top of the...

    Pics of my new Atasuki 48x19x48” tank!

    This thing looks huge and has to weigh a couple hundred pounds. I had to have my two son in laws help. I think I have it fairly ready and hoping the plants grow fast so he has hiding places. Most of the plants are from my collection here so fingers crossed. I put a 3” leca clay balls on the...

    Fogger that can be put on a timer?

    I use Kasa WiFi smart plugs to set schedules/timers, they’re cheap on Amazon and work really well! My son’s frog vivarium has a fogger set up that way for nighttime humidity and it’s never had issues :)

    Beginner questions

    One thing I would HIGHLY suggest you use are these (or similar) outlet timers. These allow you to have everything plugged in (your lights, misting system, fogger if you use one, to be automatically set to turn on and off when you want. This way you're not manually doing everything every day...

    Help Needed for Recurring Health Issues in Panther Chameleon

    My pleasure... With the tower fan just pull it away from the enclosure a bit. I used the same type in my room to cycle air. They move it enough without changing gradients in the cage which is what I recommend. You are on the right track just will need to continue to tweak what you have set up...

    Temperature/Humidity

    I get what you are saying about him trying to get light from the window compared to under the uv lighting. Even him sitting thereat the window I think he is still getting the uv light as he is underneath it about 10 inches below. Do you still beleive i should move it away from window? It being...

    Beginner questions

    Thank you sir! So you use the t5 plus a basking lamp for the lights, and heat source? Have you had any feeder stations or has your chameleon stuck with just hunting on his own: Fortunately he did eat the big horn worm on Saturday, so it’s possible that filled him up for a bit. But I would...

    New hybrid enclosure

    Finally got this set up enough for him to move in this evening. 2’x2’x4’ hybrid cage. Going to try bioactive, hope it works out. Got about 8” of soil (sand, coco fiber, top soil, worm castings, peat moss, carbon) on top of 1 1/2- 2” of ceramic balls. I did three 4’ tall sphagnim moss poles (wire...

    Custom Chameleon Cage for my Jackson’s Chameleon

    If you're wanting to ditch the Bio setup, you can still use potted plants to keep the humidity. Most people make their build with the plants double potted so you can switch them out. I also have issues keeping the humidity at night, so I wrapped my screen cage in window plastic, like...

    Fogging

    Ah, the wonders of fogging…I love what fogging has solved. But, I also still use misters. I really like to view chameleon hydration as a combination of things like fog breathing, mist drinking, and food eating. Petr has gone on to insist that chameleons should only be fogged, while you will...

    Call for Research Participation: Fogging in Chameleonoculture

    I think is a good issue to examine. What do you think that is This is a good start. What is growing in there? Is it dangerous? What would be dangerous if it was growing in there? Any humid or submersed/wet surface is going to grow stuff. That includes our misters. I think this might represent...

    Does she look healthy including poop image

    Ok so I feed her 30 mins to an hour after lights come on, I put about 15 crickets in a square tub that I got my springtails delivered in, it's about 5inch x 5 inch shallow plastic tub, See if you can drop that down between branches... Only thing about it is that it is clear. She may be targeting...

    Hydration question

    Hi. Poop looks ok. Is your set up bioactive? If so, that should be helping immensely with humidity. How long do you mist for? The ideal is to mist for at least two minutes, twice a day - right before lights go on and off. If needed, you could add a 1 minute misting in the afternoon or use a...

    Help me! New chamleon owner!

    I can’t get my night time temps below mid 70’s without both freezing and bankrupting myself. So I don’t fog at night. I do have the mist king set for a couple of brief 15 second mistings during the night for a slight bump in humidity. Heat plus high humidity increases risks for respiratory...

    Light outlet timers

    I have mine are technically separate, except my lights. There are a couple ways to go about this. You can either just find a multi-outlet timer, or if you don't like the ones you come across, like me, you can do what I did. I bought single outlet timers and utilized them the best I could...

    Pics of my new Atasuki 48x19x48” tank!

    Looking really good. Ok bottom 1 inch tall strip is that a screen strip between the doors and the bottom glass panel? Place the PC fan on top back corner of cage opposite side from the heat fixture. Should be placed so that it is pulling air up and out of the cage through the top panel. With a...

    I've made the jump. My Panther Chameleon will be here in 2 weeks. Looking for any last minute advice.

    With night temps of 68-70, you can still do a boost of humidity at night, either with your fogger or mister. I wouldn’t go all the way up to 100% though. I can’t even come close to anything below around 73/74 at night so I don’t even have a fogger. I do have my mister set to give a couple of 15...
