    Cold terrarium (for speacies like hoehnelii or bradypodion)

    And now that im really thinking about it, these mountain species that have adapted to deal with cooler night time temps, what are they really gaining from it? A cold blooded reptile will be looking for sun in the AM in most any circumstance and i know that holds true for my TJJ and hoeneli. Ive...

    Cold terrarium (for speacies like hoehnelii or bradypodion)

    Youre right that you wont be cooling below ambient but think about it this way. The room with a heat lamp (or multiple heat lamps in my case) is hotter than the rest of the house or ambient if youd like to call it that. An exhaust fan forces the hot air out essentially creating a vacuum effect...

    Cold terrarium (for speacies like hoehnelii or bradypodion)

    Pointing cold air at the cage would be the worst thing you can do imo. Also there is no presence of cold, its the absence of heat so in my book, an exhaust fan out the window should cool down most smaller rooms adequately to get a good 5 degree temp drop. Bump that up to 10 degree drop if the...

    lazy or bored or tired... i dont know

    Key is to not look them in the eye. Stay in the room. Stay still. Try not to make eye contact or just move until theres a stick or leaf or something in btwn your eyes and then quitely observe. Its always good to monitor what they're taking in

    I just hit them with a spray bottle on more of a jet type adjustment. Gets rid of all the chameleon poo and calcium/vitamin dusts.

    My 1st Panther Chameleon

    Misting schedule is gunna be different for every one imo. Depends on what wattage bulbs you use for heat. How fast water evaporates based on RH. Bioactive or not. Lots of variables. You want to find a balance where as cham has a few opportunities to drink during the day and the enclosure has...

    First time outside pics

    I keep a few types of herps and what i love about chameleons is that they have very unique personalities. They are truly individuals. Not like snakes, geckos, turtles, and frogs. Maybe their are other reptiles out there similar but i feel chameleons are definitely more than something that just...

    Show me your feeder section

    I think moisture is key. When i see the small larvae theyre always in clumps and it looks damp. Could be them swarming decomposing fruit though i cant really tell. Maybe just switch to a bin instead of screen enclosure.
