Thank you Kathy, I am glad to have him but somewhat concerned. The previous owner had some husbandry that I was not sure of. First he just dumped a lot of crickets into the VV and let Mr. T free range, so he had no idea how much Mr. T was eating. When I say a lot I mean 100 or so. Secondly...

A buddy gave me one of these units as I adopted his Panther. I hooked up the unit and read the online instructions. I set the unit to go off every hour for 60 seconds. The unit comes on as it should but will squirt maybe two times for 30 or 40 seconds. Is this how the unit works? I figured...

Well for not having any chameleons in my life, I sure did jump in with both feet. A co-worker got a job out of state and needed to find a new home for his buddy. He heard I had a Jacksons and asked if I would adopt his friend. I was hesitant at first but after meeting Mr. T and seeing his...

In a set up like the one below, how do you support the branches? I don' think the screen is strong enough? thx Ted

given the two different environmental needs, to keep a Jacksons and a Panther in the same room in two different screened VV side by side in the same room. Yes they would have a partition so they could not see each other? thx diego

I used masonite, it has a finish that is pretty water proof. Diego

Not sue yet, some sort of cabinet, will hit the swapmeet this weekend to see if I can find something more sturdy. I am also going to call around to see if I can find a two foot Benjamin ficus to provide more foliage. Diego

Tank, I did! Or I should say the wife did. RG, I built it out of screen door track.

Thanks all, I have read the care sheets about a dozen times, Temp at basking area is around 85* and drops to about 70* on the lower perches while the lights are on. The temp drops to about 62-65* at night. The humidly fluctuates from about 60% to 80%. The middle light is a .10 UVB (compact)...

Pic is from a week ago, I removed the substrate, and there is no water bowl, the white bowl is for the superworms. I do have a catch for the dripper which I remove the water from twice weekly. thx Ted

Mr. Echo is about 9mo to a year old. I got him about two weeks ago from Petsmart. He is in a 3’ long by 2’ wide by 3’ high screened VV. He does not eat a lot, generally he eats 5 or 6 gut loaded, and calcium dusted med crickets or 3-4 Super worms every other day. He drinks a bit not a lot...

thanks guys that gives me peace of mind. I just started received an order of superworms, so I will add them to the mix. So I am going to give him 6 or seven crickets or 8-10 superworms every other day. I will give him mealworms every now and then. Once I pull out the subtrate this weekend...

I have had Mr. Echo for about a week, I believe him to be about 9 months old. I feed him every other day. I feed him crickets; however, I am not able to stay and watch him eat. I feed him in the morning after the lights have been on for about ½ hour. I have been taking the hind legs off the...

to host 500 superworms? I just got a shipment in and have no idea? I don't want them to die due to over crowding. thx TEd

I was going to use a clear cup but I read somewhere on this forum not to? I thought maybe because the chameleon would try and tounge the worm through the plastic and this might hurt them? I will find a shallow plastic cup to use. Thanks for all the help. thx Ted

What is the best way to feed a chameleon mealworms? I made a tray out of a silk leaf which has rolled edges, but the worms just crawl off before Mr. Echo sees them? I have seen the cup with holes but I figure they will just drop out? Any suggestions? Thx Diego

Thanks for the response! I have only had Mr. Echo for two days, the store said he is about a year old, they had him in the store for about two months and spoiled him rotten! At the present he is in mid shed mode. What do you think of adding another UBV .5 to the other side of the enclosure to...

I have a few questions. First the chameleon (Mr. Echo) is an adult male Jacksons. Enclosure is screened mesh, 40L X 16W X40 H. I am in San Diego 1. I am using a compact florescent .10 bulb for UVB, however, the reflective 7” fixture is not deep enough so ¾” protrudes out of the fixture...
