Nah of course not, it’s a 2x2x4 tall hybrid dragon strand cage; he has a mist king going on 4 x day, lights are: 75w basking bulb that gets to high 80s at highest basking branch, a 15w grow light for plants and a 24” linear T8 10.0 uvb bulb, I have a solar meter and he gets a max UVI 3.0 at the...

Caught my lil guy eye rubbing, this is his new cage, has a ton of bungee cords, fake branches and 4 plants: pothos, bromeliad, croton, ficus lyrata; I’ve heard the ficus sap can cause eye irritation do you think that’s what this could be? No oozing from eyes or other medical issues present. His...
Not sure yet, will know when I take him in on 7/6, but I've read all the reviews on these and I'm armed with notes when I discuss with vet :)

Thanks for asking, he's still doing pretty good, he's not eating a ton, about 1-2 2" hornworms a day and poops every 3 days or so, which still look hydrated but smell terribly. The vet appointment is on 7/6 to get the meds, so anxious to get those going while he's still healthy and strong and...
thanks all, I buy silks from morifeeders, beastmode and hornworms from josh's and DBD pet, I will no longer feed crickets since that's where I believe my cham got his coccidia
Just wondering, since I know crickets do and dubia roaches do not. My guy was diagnosed with Coccidia and I'm wondering if I need to get rid of my silks and horns or if they're okay to feed him. I discarded my crickets and dubias just in case. Thanks!
Chameleons are not illegal in Maine, they're considered part of the unrestricted species list, which means "Unrestricted List (PDF) (no permit needed): Maine law allows the Department to maintain a list of species of fish and wildlife, including tropical fish and invertebrates, which do not...
Can dubia roaches carry the coccidia? Can they do so if it came from the crickets? (mine just got diagnosed so curious as I still have dubia but threw out all the crickets (released them into the wild)
Super helpful thanks! Sounds like I just need to supplement with D3 on a normal schedule if I can't get the UVI past 1.7 without raising the basking branch heat to go over 88-90 degrees.
Very interesting! So sounds like if I keep my T8 10.0 where it is so the UVI is around 2.8 I won't need calcium w/D3 supplementation after all? Do I then still need to use or calcium w/out D3 supplementation?
This was super helpful, thank you! The above is for his temporary home while he's with me in Maine for a month and had to improvise how to replicate his permanent setup but also fit in a car (see here if you want to see my McGuyver attempt at a temp cage)...
