whats with the dish and half log at the bottom of your cage?

My ~5-6 month old panther has been acting kinda funny over the last day he has been kinda keeping to himself when just before that he would come up to me for a drink or eat no problem. I noticed his vent is much more noticable than before - although I haven't seen the spermplug. CCould this...

lol everyone that posted before me is more experienced, but doesn't that bump at the base of the tail insinuate its a male?

mmm cool. I heard you can buy the individual valves at home depot I'll see If i can verify as I'm making a trip now

meh nm whatever you say I don't think that chameleons are that hard to look after either and I rather enjoy taking care of Evo. That said, I'm off to Home Depot and I need to clean the crickets' cage, maybe i'll build a new one. Laterz

most of us on here to have the best results with reptisun 5.0 tube florescents (not the colied ones that plug into a reg socket, you DO NOT want to use those for chams- maybe your vet wanted you to get rid of that?) also, there has been some discussion of it but you may want to avoid mice and...

I think the females look better than the males. Almost gota female veiled instead of a panther, but decided I didn't want to deal with eggs my first time around ;p

hehe Yah who wouldnt want one of those parsons! And, i think sharks do the same thing when they bite? They roll back their eyes in case their prey is feisty!

most everything applies to panthers. The basking temps are a bit different. And mine says "Newtek" but It EXACTLY the same powerstrip so I'm gonna give it a try! Thanks soo much! I spent forever looking for instructions!

can anyone point out to me the noticable signs of MDB in the first pic? Always want to learn! Thanks ;p

2 parts: 1) Probably my favorite video ever on Chams: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y5ARiG5veQY&feature=related 2) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eU0nMR0kqH8&NR=1 a. Can anyone identify the types of chams in this Short clip? b. and what they are eating? Not too hard...

Also, your little cham is probably scared of you.... Yes, it is normal for it to hide. They change colors for a reason ;p If you make any changes to the enclosure your cham may stop eating or go hide or become unadjusted for a bit, maybe a day or so.

took my Cham about a day to adjust. Not a week or a month. But then I had been a member of these forums and listened to what people told me and did what they told me to do. and I agree with Brad. Join the forums to learn. Few people don't know what they are talking about. Others, you will...

^^ What she said. if you want to be handy make the stand. IMO. In the Enclosures and supplies are plenty of threads on how people made their setups though

I use a 2700k(color) Phillips 600 lumens T12 bulb from Home Depot. Reptisun 5.0 come in a t12 format. Therefore, I have to use a t12 bulb for my other light in my dual fixture ;p probably not AS GOOD but works pretty sweet for me :) Actually I think they come in different colors and I...

and hey your power strip / timer looks like the one I have! how do you program it? mine didn't come with any directions except what is on the back of the oackage... says see insert... I didn't get no stinkin insert

the heater warm water setup is optimal, really expensive, and nice - like wow that you set that up for a small cage probably for your first chameleon. My temps are about the same here at night so I have a ceramic bulb - otherwise the same setup. I just recieved my thermostats today so I'm...

Some things will vary slightly between species such as temperature and humidity. You will want to well plant your cage. Here is a guide from these forums with the most comon plants we use: (and are readily available at stores such as Home depot or walmart...

My panther male was so happy to get out of his tiny cup from overnight shipping that he crawled right onto my hand just to get up! I had everything setup for about a week before I got him so I could make sure everything was ready, especially temps and humidity. He didn't eat the first day but...

I'm in California... hehe
