You don't? Where would the cham go for concentrated heat to help with digestion? https://www.chameleonforums.com/care/lighting/ The basking bulb A basking bulb is any light bulb that generates heat to create a warm spot at the top of the cage. Reptiles are ectotherms (cold-blooded), meaning...

I use this with a 100w bulb and it gives me all the control and flexibilty I need (rated for 125w)

If your cham is not burned (I'm not saying he is), then why is the plant leaf toast?

Nice home you made for them. I remember years ago you could buy adults at pet stores and Petsmart, usually labeled "White's Dumpy Frog" :D

They really are! :love:

I've always been curious about the piebalds and if the "burn victim" look is by design or an breeding experiment gone bad? :confused:

Like the the Flintstones :) Seriously, good job there Big Daddy, all 13 tadpoles metamorphosized? 👏

You not only described my cham but my cat, too! ;)

I actually use this and it works great.
