Yah what @Carlton said. she beat me too it.

Yah mine do it too just secure the hoses like Decadancin said it will stop it.

They are really nice! Thanks for sharing.

A lot of folks drill a hole in the bottom, and attach a balk head and hose then drain it into a bucket. you can also buy a drain pan for those I believe.

Poor fella.

Might bring your basking temp up he might be that dark trying to warm up. His basking temp could be as high as 90's, 32c. Is that better?

I'm just the opposite I have a humidifier on a controller, and it hardly ever comes on during the day wile the misters are working, but it runs nearly all night.

Nice shot Janet. He is a beauty.

I guess I'm going to have to start watching the forums a bit longer before I try to help. From that earlier pick it definitely looks like burns. It does look a lot better though. And I guess she already new about the MBD I thought I seen. I really need to start paying more attention before I...

I think this is the natural coloring of your chameleon nothing to worry about especially the tan areas. The black, or darker areas if not natural accruing look more like a bruise than a burn. However I think it is probably just his coloration. his leg looks a little funny though could we get a...

The main reason you need to worry about drafts at all in my opinion is do to your heat gradient. It has to vary so your chameleon can thermo regulate. As long as it doesn't mess with that too much your fine. I think sometimes we treat these animals as if they live in a bubble in the wild. I mean...

once she matures a little more there is something I would add to her care that differs from a male is, I would lower her basking temps down to the mid to lower 80's rather than the 90's used for the males, and bring her food intake down to about half that you would feed a male. This will...

I agree with Craigwyatt on this one.

Put the laying ben in and dig her a couple of starter holes. Like @Remkon said cover her, and give her some privacy. If there is any way we could get a good look at her side it would be easer to judge if she is gravid or not, but given her age I would guess she is. That could be why she is on...

She doesn't look like she is feeling to well she is definitely stressed, and her eyes are a little sunken in. How old is she by the way? Could we get some other pic's of her she could be gravid, and need a laying ben.

Personally I wouldn't worry about if too much unless they start turning a more rusty brown, and covers half of the urate. I think the urate looks ok as long as it don't get worse. Just MHO.

Don't know if they are toxic or not, but as @Andee said that coloration would concern me. They are definitely not trying to hide, so what are they advertising?

As long as they aren't the ones that damage your plants they are quite beneficial really help keep things clean. Those of us who have a substrate actually buy them to put in our soil. Things like springtails, and pill bugs.

I don't think she is ready to lay eggs, and doesn't look gravid to me unless she doesn't have very many. However after they reach her age I kept a laying ben in all the time, so if you could arrange it, it wouldn't hurt.

Yep! no night light needed, in fact I would highly recommend not using any light period it disturbs them, and can cause great stress. Now if your temps did go below the 50's could recommend using a infrared ceramic heat admitter that way there is no light.
