I think the higher temps and humidity are helping. He seems to be gaping less and less. Major fingers crossed that this continues in a positive direction. Tonight he is at 78 degrees and 82% humidity. I have a question. Whenever I mist the cage, temps drop for a significant amount of time...

I'm not sure of anything. All I know is I called and he has been raised in the low 90's. Irregardless, I think it's most important to be consistent. At least for most animals they can adjust to anything as long as it isn't bouncing all around. I've just messed this guys world all up because I...

Thanks for your response. That makes tons of sense.

Alright... so 80 % humidity. Temp ranges from 95 to 72. Reduced gaping. Although he still looks kinda bitchy. Don't think he really approves of me.

Why?

Mouth closed while asleep tonight. I'm hoping that's improvement. He is looking better.

Ok I will do that

i am using a chick brooder lamp right now, about 2-3 feet away, to keep the temps up to 93 and dropped the incandescent bulb. Running a humidifier inside the walk in closet to keep humidity high. Headed to the pet store to get a ceramic heat emitter to keep nighttime temps up. Breeder said to...

Hand misting, pothos & ficus, dripper, have turned on a cool most humidifier in his room now. Started a new thread in the health clinic wth how to ask for help information. Have also called the local herp vets office to get a game plan if I need emergency services.

Chameleon Info: * Your Chameleon - 5 month old, male Ambilobe Panther * Handling - Once to put him into his cage after shipping * Feeding - I have fed mostly crickets, 6-10 daily, spread out through the day. Started with mediums but then moved to large, because the breeds said that was what he...

Here he is today... no gaping. No snot. No rattling breathing. Should I move this thread over to the health clinic?

Yep I called him. He keeps his chams in the low 90's, so this guy has been freezing. Said to give him the spa treatment, raise temps to low 90s, 80s at night, ceramic heat emitter, humidity as high as I can keep it, and to keep in touch.

Just spoke with Marty and he got me all straightened out! Super nice guy, took care of me right away. His emails were sent to spam folder. Figures. Lol.

Totally. Thanks. You made me feel a lot better. :-)

Ambient room temps are at 70, and humidity ranges 45% - 65%, but usually closer to the 45 end. Wood stove. Dry house in winter.

Where do you guys measure temperature? I have three probe thermometers, two of which are very very accurate. Two of those stick on thermometers, and an infrared laser thermometer. (Overkill much?) oh yeah, plus another digital read out home thermometer that is part f the hygrometer. When my...

It's 63 at night, dipped down to 61 this morning.

Yeah, twice actually... lol. Thanks guys. It's just scary when thy say they are an online company on the phone, then say they respond to emails within minutes... It's my fist time dealing with this company and stuff like this worries me. I'm sure he will get in touch. :-)

I tried by phone and email yesterday, and they never got back to me. Trying again today, this morning, because due to a website malfunction I have triple charges on my credit card. I'm kinda freaking out. I hope they get back to me quickly!

No. silent breathing.
