    Need help lower humidity-daytime

    What are you measuring humidity with? You might want to get a different style of hygrometer to double check. How big is the area that the dehumidifier is in? How often are you misting? Are you dripping or anything? If so, when?

    ginger gutload and other stuff

    I give orange to my feeders every now and then. I try to go lighter with the fruits because of the sugars. Usually I give my insects the same things that I give to my beardie’s in their salads. This should help.

    ginger gutload and other stuff

    I would say no to ginger and put it in the same gutload category as onion, garlic and mushrooms…while a food for us, not a good choice for reptiles or their food.

    Tumor?

    Only a vet can determine if it’s an abscess or abnormal growth, I’d guess by lancing it. If an abscess, it needs to be tended to before any potential infection can spread and cause sepsis. If an abnormal growth, better to have it addressed or removed while small and before it can grow larger and...

    Gotcha time of year

    We humans are strange in the patterns we make. It’s always happened that new animals come into my life in the spring and usually around May. Perhaps that’s just for cats and dogs. My chameleons seem to come into my life in the autumn around this time of year. Six years ago yesterday, on a day...

    Juvenile female temperatures, feeding, supplimentation etc.

    The Repashy Calcium Plus is a great product which contains vitamin D3, so no other source of D3 is needed (other than thru UVB). You would use the calcium without D3 at every feeding except for one feeding twice per month, in which you would use the Repashy. As I said previously, if that was my...

    Juvenile female temperatures, feeding, supplimentation etc.

    Female panthers are a bit different than veileds in that they don’t grow so fast, so you do provide them more time to grow and mature before limiting food. Since babies and young chameleons temperatures shouldn’t exceed 78-80F anyhow, you don’t need to reduce basking temps. It’s been a few years...

    Supplements & How I Plan On Using Them

    While not familiar with the PangeaCal brand, I assume they are okay. However, the Repashy Calcium Plus is not. I can’t recall which vitamins it is too high in for chameleons, but it is. Also, it contains D3 so you would be double dosing in D3. A couple of better options would be : substitute...
