1kg!! Thats huge!!
My girl weighed in at 89g today. She is 4 and a half months.
I'm using a digital scale I have to weight small amounts of wool and foster kittens.
Is there a chart or something that gives a percentile for growth and weights for veiled Chameleons? Or an average weight.
What is an average weight gain for a growing Cham?
I weighed my female about a month ago (really not easy cause she wasn't exactly thrilled with the idea)
Then again...
I have multiple plants to add. But waiting on them to be more established since shes a bit of a plant fiend sometimes.
I wanted to put lattice along the back. But couldnt find any that wasn't pressure treated.
It was late in the season so garden centers were closed or sold out. I did go...
It's huge. Im the only person she does it with.
She either ignores or puffs up when anyone else puts a hand out for her. My oldest (16) thinks its remarkable that she recognizes hands and faces.
I try to wake her slowly in the mornings.
I mist at 6:30. Turn on the lights in the room but leave her cage dark until 7am.
The basking light goes on first mainly because I unplug it nightly. Then I'll turn on the t5.
It's still dark out until nearly 8 am these days.
Sun is gone by 5:30.
I...
She does. Sometimes it looks more yellow or brown. And they look pink right before she sheds.
The colour runs right down her back too.
Today's pic.. (she always comes out to see me after breakfast. Never hangs out. Just goes up one arm and down the other back to her cage. Its our daily ritual)
She is just over 4 months now. Her hatch date was July 24th of this year.
I turn my basking off an hour before lights out as well. She doesn't bask all day anyway. She basks in the morning before her poop.
Then has breakfast and goes back to basking. Her afternoons are back and forth exploring...
So far the temps haven't changed. But I have 3 separate digital thermometer/hygrometers with probe in there today.
One in her hot spot, cool side and at the bottom.
Temps are currently 28°C, 24°C and 22°C
I was using a 75watt argo pro indoor flood as a basking light. But dropped her down to a...
This fixture has 2 separate reflectors. Its the vivosun dual 24"
I want a solar meter mainly so I will know when I need to change my uvb without the guessing game of "how long will it last"
Heres a pic of the fixture I got
Solar meter is on my xmas wish list.
She has the same UVB she had before. I just got a new fixture.
The plant light makes it super bright.
If she doesnt relax tomorrow. I might just switch back to the reptisun t5 fixture
Got the new dual t5ho fixture in the mail.today.
Set it up with her UVB in one and the plant light in the other. .the brightness in her enclosure is definitely noticeable.
I'd say she is less than pleased with the change. She hasnt stoped pacing her enclosure since I set it up a couple hours...
