Thanks! I made your recommended adjustments. Of course, since its his first day in the enclosure, his first storm startled the heck out of him, but he will get used to it. So far he seems to calm down fairly quickly after changes.

I'm such a nervous Cham parent right now...He wandered around for a while, then slowly found the basking site. He immediately climbed on the screen right underneath it and his underside turns almost "burnt" black, thats the only way I can describe it. I panicked and basically startled him away...

Hi Everyone, I just posted my new buds pic in another thread, but I just wanted to make a new one with the introduction. Here he is!

He's here! Everyone, meet Percival! He slowly climbed out of his shipping cup and then sauntered off into the canopy! At this point I'm not sure where he went, hopefully exploring haha. I'm sure it will take him a bit to get acclimated, but I'm so excited!

Ok, so I went back and listened to the naturalistic hydration podcast and made the following adjustments: Fogger at night went from 1 hour spurts throughout the night to on from 12am-6:30am (First light turning on). Adjusted to have a 1 minute misting at 6am (30 minutes before first light)...

Oh and thank you so much for the feedback!

I’ll take a closer look at the mist schedule. It’s really easy to adjust. Also, with the tank heat, I typically keep my home cool during the winter, about 64F. I am able to maintain temps inside the enclosure using a Dyson hot+cool, but the reservoir tends to be on the cool side at that 60-64F...

Very good points. I will definitely need to take it slow while he and I get to know each other.

Thanks so much! I think I listened to about 30 of the podcasts a bit ago on a couple road trips haha! There is definitely a wealth of knowledge there and I’m sure I could revisit a few to dial things in. Thanks again for the encouragement. On the note of misting time, I have heard what you are...

Thank you!

Hi All, I am expecting my new buddy this Thursday and have been getting his enclosure ready with finishing touches. I would like to ask any of the pros that may have a few minutes to review my setup and techniques before he arrives! Here is the info: Chameleon Info: Your Chameleon - The...

Yeah, it appears the notes above on humidity accuracy are about right:

1 hour after placement (mister went off a few minutes earlier): a few hours after that:

I have them steadying out. This close they should be in the same ballpark....we will see.

Testing now, I’ll let you know!

Right now I’m using 4 in 1 cage. Keep in mind I don’t have my chameleon yet (he arrives this Thursday), so I am testing out temps. I have a thermostat nailing my basking site to 90 degrees, with one of these sensors temporarily attached in a weird position: you can see the thermostat probe and...

I dig that plant wall!

I still really like the SensorPush sensors. Basically they are data loggers that can export all of it if needed. they pop out data like this: they are Bluetooth, or with a hub (I went this route) they are viewable anywhere. The only downside that I have had is that I can’t use them with IFTTT...

:ROFLMAO:

Hi All! So, I know we give so much focus and attention to the interiors of our enclosures, but I’m having a moment of contemplation in regards to the rest of the room/area that houses our dear friends. I know there is a huge matter of personal taste and subjectivity, but I am looking for what...
