If I weren't on the other side of the country, I would definitely take one!

Delays, delays, delays. Unfortunately the build came to a screeching halt when the pump I was going to use for the misting system burned up. Had to order a new one. So we are waiting for that to arrive. And the UV bulb has been delayed by a train derailment. 🤞Hoping the bulb wasn't actually...

Frame complete! Misting system next.

Thanks so much to everyone! Toby is overjoyed that MJ is ok. He and my husband are working on the new enclosure now! I think I have him talked into converting our bedroom closet into another habitat. The reptile show us in town next month. I might have to get a little boy for myself!

MJ is perfectly fine! The vet said she appears healthy, happy, active and SASSY! She weighs a wopping 27g!

Thanks so much to everyone for their help and suggestions. We are getting ready to head to the vets office but of course she looks perfectly fine this morning! Moving around, basking, not gaping, nice color. Oh well. She needed a check-up anyway. All of the suggestions I received will be...

Doing all this with the new build this weekend.

I use a dripper and keep it filled I do not have a misting system or fogger. I mist her in the morning with a spray bottle. Also several times throughout the day, when her humidity starts to drop to 30. I mist for at least 2 minutes before lights out and I cover the sides of the cage with...

Just checked the temps and the ambient temp is 75.4⁰ and basking is 80.2⁰. She's no longer gaping though. Am I being overly paranoid?

Yes, she's on a 12-12 schedule with lights and her temp at night is in the mid-60s. The vet appointment is a drop-off situation? I have to drop her at 10am and they said pick-up time will be 330pm. Is this a normal vet appointment for reptiles?

She shed about a week ago. How often do they shed? She's been hanging vertically today. I have noticed her throwing her head back a few times with open mouth. My youngest daughter noticed a bubble in one of her nostrils. That's when I started searching for a vet. No saliva, no noises. I try...

MJ is not herself and I'm fearing upper respiratory infection. Her coloring just seamed "off" all afternoon. I only saw her eat one cricket today. She did drink once, but her eyes are looking a little sunken and she's gaping. I finally found a vet 45 min away that sees reptiles, but they...

According to tracking info, everything I need will arrive by Friday so Saturday is build day! My question: Should the screen be attached inside or on the outside?

Thank you! I just ordered the lighting I need. Now I just need to wait for that and all the parts for the misting system to arrive and my husband can start building! The things we do for our grandkids! 🙄😂

Does it matter if the bulb is LED or flourescent?

A few better pics of MJ. This seams to be her "resting" color. She gets beautiful black markings when she's upset. U know, "You're beautiful when you're angry" I try to keep everything as calm as possible in her room and we try not to disturb her much. She's only been here 8 days.

I have one. The temp is 80⁰ I am still on the hunt for this. I realized yesterday I bought the wrong one. It was a direct wire and I need a plug-in. For now I'm using whatever came in the enclosure kit my daughter bought. When u say strength do u mean lumens? I'm looking for a 5000-5500 lumens.

Sorry, I forgot to mention that she is a veiled

So my 13yr old grandson brings home a chameleon from the pet store and since my daughter is not allowed pets in her apartment (yes, even caged ones) it came to my house. Of course, it's female. He never does anything the easier way. Lol. He brought along a cage bought at the same pet store that...
