I keep mine on a very slow drip from lights on to lights off. I use a little dripper and I only need to fill it once or twice a week. I found that the valve didn't give me good control over the drip so I bought a fish tank air valve and I run the dripper to the air valve and then use that to...

Here's the form. Chameleon Info: Your Chameleon - The species, sex, and age of your chameleon. How long has it been in your care? Handling - How often do you handle your chameleon? Feeding - What are you feeding your cham? What amount? What is the schedule? How are you gut-loading your...

Looks like MBD from the lack of calcium. Get him on the calcium without D3 daily ASAP. You may want to try a few doses of liquid calcium as well. How old are the UVB lights? They should be changed every 6-8 months and they stop producing sufficient UVB levels. You should fill out the how...

The black crickets are more aggressive and will bite. I would only feed a few at a time and don't leave any uneaten ones in the cage.

That looks like an azalea which are poisonous.

Sound like your cham could have MBD. You need a better gut load for your feeders. Check user sandrachameleons blogs for good gut loading info. Your supplementation schedule should be: Calcium without D3 at every feeding Calcium with D3 twice a month Multi-vitamin twice a month Have...

Don't waste your breath. The OP obviously does not actually want any help and is just here to troll. It's unfortunate for the cham but there's not much we can do to help an ignorant owner.

The help form is stickied at the top of this forum. Here is the link. https://www.chameleonforums.com/how-ask-help-66/

If he's in a 29gal glass tank, how is he getting UVB? UVB will not pass through the glass on the tank. As mentioned, you should complete the how to ask for help form.

Everyone here is just looking out for the health and safety of the cham. Giving the experienced owners here an attitude is not going to get you very far. If you know so many people that have had cham's live full, happy, healthy lives then why not ask them about your problem? You're here...

Maybe for a jackson but not a veiled. Every experienced veiled keeper here recommends supplementing at every feeding. Do you have anything to back up your claims?

75 at night is fine. If it goes below 60 then get a ceramic heat emitter that only outputs heat. As I mentioned you need: Calcium without D3 at every feeding Calcium with D3 twice a month Multi-vitamin twice a month or Repashy Calcium Plus at every feeding. No other supplements needed. 100...

No lights at night. They need complete darkness to sleep. What types of supplements are you using and what schedule? You should be dusting with calcium without D3 at every feeding, calcium with D3 twice a months, and a multi vitamin twice a month. What type and strength UVB bulb are you...

The basking area would be the 'hot spot' in the cage. Usually a vine or branch directly under the heat lamp. I think it should be about 8 inches below the top of the cage. I would measure the temp there and then adjust your heat lamp to get the proper temp. You can try to raise the lamp higher...

I was just asking because UV does not pass through glass. You should try to raise the temp of the basking area to around 85. Chams need proper basking temps to help digest their food.

Is the top of the cage glass?

That could be the problem. They should get calcium without D3 at every feeding, calcium with D3 twice a month, and a multi vitamin twice a month. Proper gut loading, temps, and humidity are also very important.

Cool. I would suggest removing the waterfall from your Jacksons cage. Unless you are cleaning and disinfecting it daily, it is not recommended.

Why are you getting a new cham when you're trying to get rid of your current one?

No additional supplements are needed with it.
