Try not, DO! time is of the escence right now. :eek:

Hello there! congrats on receiving your new items! The cage is great for a sub adult and adult chameleon. if your cham is a juvinile you may want to get a smaller cage to rear him or her. the flourecent fixture if good for the uvb 5.0 bulb. --- I'm not sure the lightbulb you pictured will be...

If you don't want to keep the wax worm in the fridge, just buy what your cham will consume in a week (right now that she needs to recover. At southbay tropical you can buy as little as 10 wax worms for about $1

Usually a 100W bulb is sufficient, but you have to monitor your set-up's temp to make sure.

Wow, maybe they were trying to take over. Well, keep the cage and "furnishings" clean and you don't have to worry about the ants any more.

Are you talking about the heat source light bulb? ...then 78F at the closest perching branch is not that bad. Though, you may want to raise that temp a bit more for a vield.

don't worry too much about those,... they are harmless,.... as long as is not a full colony trying to take over the cage.:p

Are they the little black ants? or another type of ant?

I haven't ventured to the north county stores yet. I can tell you that 2 stores in the southbay have them in glass cages. and one in downtown.

Drippers can be found at Petsmart on main, Petco on broadway, lll reptiles is cheaper though.

Next time you go there to buy crikets, ask the guy who sold you the cham for his name. Mike is the owner, Tim fits a bit of your description.

Fix the little issues we have pionted out already, and give her some time to adjust. You will find her being more active in the day if everything goes well.:)

That would be nice! I would like to meet more Cham keepers in SD.:D

Try and visit PETCO again. They sell veiled chams in San Diego. I have visited 3 different stores that had them. And offcourse, the staff knew nothing about how to keep them propperly, they just hand out a "care sheet" that doesn't really give you the information needed to kepp them healthy.

I know the place! ...and i know who they get their chams from. they have more than just reptiles, but maybe your focus was on the reptiles to begin with.;) ....there are only 2 people in there that actually know about chams,.... the rest of them will only try to make a sale.:mad: But don't...

Agreed.:cool:

Yeah, I was looking for the info Elizadolots just posted. (i did not have it readily available to share). ---Also,...i have the impression Rain bought the cham in a BIG BOX PET STORE. ...Not much help there obviously.;)

That's what we are all here for. to help eachother. :D

Yeah, take the first step changing what you can. If the problems persist with your cham, then we can escalate to the vet visit.;)

I'm Chula Vista also. I live right off of Olympic parkway. ...Keep us updated on the progress of your baby. feel free to message anytime, if i can be of any help.
