I mentioned that we use hibiscus in all our enclosures, I feel I need to elaborate so you can make the best choice, we rotate our hibiscus plants from our outside to our inside enclosure regularly. This allows is to clean the plants as well as allow them to get direct sunlight. If your going to...
This question came up from another thread I saw. Not sure if this makes a huge difference or not and would love to know others thoughts on this. Would a UVB light fixture be better at the full width of the enclosure? For example, our cages at 18" either have a single 18" or a 36" extending...
Like the double door set up, looks great not sure if this makes a huge difference or not and would love to know others thoughts on this. Would a UVB light fixture be better at the full width of the enclosure? For example, our cages at 18" either have a single 18" or a 36" extending across both...
Junglefries has great advice, the only thing I would add is overheating at mid 90's from what we have experience would be one of two things, inadequate air flow, or the basking light being to close to the basking spot to produce that temp. Veiled chameleons can handle basking temps up to 100...
Generally, the two differing species have to be in the same genus for mating to occur, even within the same genus, the differing species will more than likely not mate and even if they did the eggs will more than likely not be fertile, and in the odd chance the eggs where inseminated just like...
No, light source 10" to 12" from basking spot, low to mid 90s, the distance helps prevent burns, and the Chameleon will thermo regulate his/her own temp.
You need to lose the waterfall for sure. Your daytime basking spot should be low to mid 90's, with an ambient temp of low to mid 80s, humidity 70% but Panthers can be quite comfortable in lower humidity levels, average house typical of 45-55% humidity. Light off at night, temps can go as low as...
It's actually a last case scenario flight response in Chameleons, if they get scared enough, in the wild the little buggers will drop out of a tree on purpose to escape predators. We experience this with young Panthers, they move so quickly and they will literally jump from your hand or from a...
