Ah okay sorry I gave the wrong advice I read this online that you shouldn't feed them before your about to turn off the light because heat helps digestion but you are the expert. Sorry again.

How long has he not eaten food for and with the basking I'm pretty sure they bask to help with digestion so if he hasn't eaten I doubt he would bask.

Yeah I've been watching all her videos.

I dont know much about chemelons but he is cute. I'm new here.

Ah okay a lot of sites says it should remain 60 to 80 and other say differently. Well I checked right know in kenya and its 47 percent.

Do all chemelons require high humidity at night. I understand they Jacksons do and I presume that Panthers do as well cause it's the Madagascar and its gets foggy at night. What about veilied chemelons. The reason why I just want the humidity in the enclosure and not the whole room to increase...

I've seen that thread and all the info.

I think I will stick to screen then cause majority of the chemelons that do get RI are kept in glass or wooden vivarium. At night when humidity needs to be 100 percent I'll just cover the cage with a shower curtain.

How good are full screen enclosures for holding in humidity.

The wooden vivarium is designed to have the chimney affect air leaves through the top and gets sucked through the bottom. I could also add more vents to the back or a fan for extra ventilation. Although if I get a jackson I might get a hybrid cage because they need lower temps anyway. Still...

But what if the cham decides to chew the brach

Which enclosure do you use or did you make it yourself.

Ok thanks there is muji chemelon enclosures in the uk that is similar to that. How would I go about putting the lights on the outside. People here put them on the inside but put a sheild on them and put the basking perch a few inches lower.

I live in the UK so humidity but more so temperature is hard to maintain. I understand that keeping them without good ventilation lead to RI but was confused because everyone here apart from a few people keep thier chems in wooden enclosures.

If it is a male they get thier colours as they age not when they are young. http://www.muchadoaboutchameleons.com/2013/04/male-or-female-how-to-sex-baby-panther.html?m=1 This link might help.

Would this still not be effective airflow only cause it would a lot easier to keep the temp and humidity up an night. Sorry if I sound repetitive and annoying on this matter. Its just I see very few people in the uk using screen enclosures.

Ok thanks

I dont know much and haven't got a chemelon joined like 3 or 4 days ago. But it seems like a lot of the chemelons with eye problems are Panthers. Sorry I couldn't be of any help. Someone more experienced will hopefully give better advice.

Ok thank you this wont cause black mould to develop on the walls will it.

Oh cool good to know. I'll likely be buying a fogger then. Do you have to keep the fogger on all night or just for a short period of time.
