haha awesome

hi and welcome. if you are talking about one of these then they should be fine, at least i hope so because ive just ordered one. ive also got a clamp lamp to add more heat if needed. this site looks good for prices but its the first time ive used them so i cant really recommend them yet, their...

you spend 2 hours staring at a plant you cham is hiding in. you take great pleasure in watching another creature getting eaten.

looking at what temperatures you say you have there then you may not even need a basking bulb but when it comes to basking lights it doesnt really matter what wattage bulb you use, whats important is the temperature is correct. So if 2x 75w bulbs give you the right temps at the basking area and...

Id be very careful of the fake Christmas trees as the plastic pines/leaves come off really easily and could be swallowed by your cham, and veileds love to chomp plants. You really should move the uvb bulb near to the basking spot to make sure hes getting enough rays.

I nearly crapped myself the other day when my baby veiled hissed and went to bite me, first time it has happened and I was shocked. I know they do this but i just wasnt expecting it. He had managed to escape his cage and was sat enjoying himself on the top and really didnt want to be moved.

them temps should be fine. My veilded has had a few nights recently when his overnight temp has dropped to 10c (thanks to an arctic cold snap with temps of -18 outdoors) and he has been fine. I would be careful of leaving him out all night though and make sure nothing can get to him or stop him...

you dont need a special basking light, just an ordinary lamp bulb will be fine, just make sure you measure the temps.

you say you are giving him regular mistings, do you know what temperature the water is you spray him with, hot, warm or cold?

Are you sure they are UVB? I didnt realise they made them that powerful? 300w would be way too powerful, the one I use is only 15w. I also use only a 40w household bulb for basking temps and I live in the UK which is a lot colder than Greece. This is the type of UVB bulb you want and they...

haha i cant see crickets escaping any easier than locusts, they do smell worse though. you can get roaches from ebay.

ginger kids aaaarrrggghhhh

can you not get crickets?

no energy saving bulbs dont really give off much heat. Are halogen bulbs also being stopped?

Im guessing cleaning would be one of the main disadvantages. how often do frog guys have to clean their tanks? I cant imagine it being very easy to get behind all of those plants and give it a good scrub every month. I also imagine that a large chameleon could tear tanks like them to shreds in a...

I did the same and used a larger tub and now my cham eats like a pig. I have noticed though that he has got a bit less tolerant to me now he gets most of his food from his tub so im going to start hand feeding him more.

what lighting are you using?

i take it that is the basking bulb, do you have a UVB bulb as its essential?

I wouldnt feed your cham too many crix late in the afternoon as he may have trouble digesting them, i take my chams feeding cup out around 5pm so he cant eat before he sleeps. The petstore where you bought him may have been ill-informed but you cant blame them because you haven't done your...

Yoshi are you cup feeding? my cham wouldnt eat much from his cup until i changed it to a much larger tub so the feeders could move around more.
