It was public, just on the lighting group she administrates on facebook, which I didn't realize until she wrote me back. I asked about why Chameleon Academy said 6" of space and Arcadia said 12-15". She gave a detailed response with an accurate answer and why it makes sense for my set up...

That's awesome! I was surprised to see that she was writing me, asking me questions and interested in helping. And not because I didn't think someone like that would be, but because I just would not expect to find someone with that kind of knowledge on a facebook group and interested in my...

oh my gosh! I have a 6 month panther also (nosy be) and he is TINY compared to yours. May I ask how much your beauty weighs and how long he is, just for reference for me to have. I am trying really hard to get my little guy back on track after a 6 week bout of antibiotics immediately after...

I told her that I had read some of her work, recommended by people on this forum, and that I was SO excited she was the one who answered. I mean, it doesn't get better than that! It was interesting. She basically said the Chameleon Academy sheet was wrong and his light should be about 9...

Hey, since you guys are getting really into the science of this, I thought I would let you know that I joined a facebook group about reptile lighting and Frances Baines answered my question...herself! Crazy!!!!!!

So I have been posting a bit about my little panther in the medical thread due to some eye issues and a few of you have been SO helpful, I cannot thank you enough! Today I joined a facebook group for reptile lighting just to see if I could follow up a few leads on answers for my little one and...

Thank you! This is so great.

If I have a container with a heat pad to keep it warmer, could I do this in the winter. We are going broke shipping silkworms for our cham and winter shipping is hard!

I would love to learn how to do this! My little dude is most fond of silkworms and I can't afford to feed him the way he chows down on them! I am just south of Green Bay, so not stupidly far from you, but even so, I would rather learn to grow them than ship in the winter, no matter where from...

Mine does this ALL THE TIME. Never the veiled's, but my panther does it every day!

I use a pump sprayer also. A mistking would be nice, no doubt, but my sprayer bottle was CHEAP and I am home, so it works for us.

I have been thinking about a dubia "farm" also, but until he chooses to eat them regularly, it does not make sense. Here is my list: My favourite is https://www.tcinsects.com/ Also check out: http://www.mulberryfarms.com/live-silkworms-available-now-c22/ https://www.silkwormshop.com/...

I don't yet. I just have a bottle that I mist with a few times a day and a fogger that runs at night. We have put so much money into his care and the illnesses our last one came to us with (our last one was a rescue in really bad shape) that a mistking is out of our budget right now...

No problem. I am so glad to have this forum to learn! It is my understanding that silkworms are very high in calcium and are a good regular feeder. I order them in as none of our stores carry them either. If you are interested, there are quite a few locations to get them from.

I have had the vet wash his eye out twice and have been doing drops for over a month with him. I am happy to mist him, but I was feeling pretty confident the light change was going to help more at this point. He has had one shed since this eye issue began also. Am I barking up the wrong tree...

Hi. I am aware of how bug burger works and I use it accordingly. I dust my bugs with Repashi NO D and use LoD once every 2 weeks. I grow greens for them and feed them bug burger as well. They are healthy and well gutloaded, I assure you, but thank you for taking the time to make sure. I...

Thanks. He has had his eye flushed twice at the vets and has had one shed. Unfortunately, we don't have a super well trained vet in our area, but our breeder thinks the new cage set up will help a lot as he was a bit too close to the UVB in the smaller cage. Panthers are pickier than veileds...

Oh thank you so much! Just switched him into a larger cage with a new Arcadia bulb, 6% at the proper distance according to Chameleon Academy for his species. Sounds like he should be ok. So glad to have your help and these links also! Thanks again

Newbie here with the lighting, but trying to figure out some issues with my little guy (eye blinking... he is a 6 month nosy be and was just moved to a bigger cage. He's itty bitty for his age). Should I read this as the heat lamp and T5H0 are not enough because it doesn't provide him with...

I am not sure about some of your issues, but I am learning myself with a baby panther and I have had a baby veiled before also (20 years ago when info was sparse, but even so!) He is not going through chameleon puberty yet. Too small! I made the mistake with this panther I have now of leaving...
