    Timer for Ceramic Heat Emitter?

    It could be, the main thing is to get the appropriate temp in the basking area for the type of chameleon that you have. So you need a good and accurate way of measuring the temp where the chameleon will bask. Then make appropriate changes whether that's a stronger bulb or the light a little...

    Failed mounting attempt.

    My flavor hmm, I usually like the little guys, carpets, trioceros and kinyongia. Although I have had a few veileds over the years. Haven't had a pardalis yet, but almost got one of Texas Panther Man's Faly's a year ago or so. Are you breeding your panthers?

    Timer for Ceramic Heat Emitter?

    Yes, you will want a linear tube UVB for UVB lighting and a normal household bulb(40 -100 watts) for the day time basking. You will normally keep these lights on 12 hours a day or match it with your local sunrise/sunset time. If chameleons can cool down during the night time, it help them get a...

    Underweight male veiled

    Give him a few more days, I've have gotten some that eat right away and others that wouldn't eat for over a week. Make sure he has plenty of water, drip and mist and make sure your temps are good. Maybe try getting some hornworms or silkworms for him. Also if he isn't very secluded, you could...

    Egg-laying in veiled - how do you reduce clutch size/frequency?

    I would say that you are being a little paranoid :) but that isn't a bad thing because you are being cautious and will probably be eager to learn more because of it. As kinyonga stated, she is really young still and needs the right amount of food to stay healthy. At 3 to 4 months you shouldn't...

    Please help lighting problem!!!!

    Starburst, you need to get a way to measure the temperature at the spot(s) you chameleon will bask at. A veiled at that age needs to have a spot near 95 degrees. If it is not near that temperature you may need to "play" with different bulbs and light heights to get the temperature correct. No...

    Sorry for your loss, it always sucks to lose a friend. If nothing else hopefully in trying to decipher what may have gone wrong you will expand your knowledge. If you could maybe post some more info on your husbandry standards and "normal" feeding routines. I'd say getting the tissue examined...

    Please read!!!!!!!!

    My reply to your original post: You're basking spot really needs to be around 95 degrees, you're other temps are definitely on the lower end but shouldn't cause an issue. Does your chameleon seem like he is trying to get to the light? If you're light is on top of the cage sometimes when their...
