Have you considered buying a very long hanging light fixture that holds a basking and UVB. It will cover a few enclosures at one time instead of each reptile having their own. They longer bulbs should give off enough heat. If they are in an open area currently like a kitcken you can also maybe...
If you don't have "time" to do things the right way, you should re arrange your schedule. It's like saying you are to busy to feed a human child vegetables or a homemade meal so you give them mcdonalds everyday. It may not kill them but it's surely not a proper diet. It sounds like a lot of work...
Veryyyy lovely boys! I love the turquoise on Stanley, Krayola is amazing all around !
It's funny I could never get my veiled to eat strawberries but my panther will run when he sees them !
Can you post pictures of the enclosure for the baby and the baby itself. They could have been to hot and dehydrated. The cricket keeper does not have proper ventilation and without any branches and/ or leaves they have nothing to drink from.
Some chams are light sleepers so it really just depends on your Cham.
I can literally pick my veiled up and he will just cuddle on my hand and never even open an eye, however I can be 3 feet away from my panthers enclosure and he will wake up. I would just suggest putting a sheet over the side...
You can always spot a grimbold baby from a mile away! He is surely living up to the expectations !
You ought to start a "grimbolds kids" thread so everyone else can post there's in it
As for your chameleon puffing his throat up, that's a display of dominance and he's protecting his territory. If something were stuck in his throat he would have his head pointed up and you would see him trying to swallow.
I would be extremely surprised if it was supplementation... cal plus EVERY OTHER feeding is perfectly fine. The only thing that would contribute to a POSSIBLE negative side effect would be the gut loading and if anything it's probably under supplementing. As far as the "bump" being behind his...
It might be even worse that they don't mold, it's probably just supplements in gelatin. Do you know the nutritional content of the gutload you are using ?
As far a gutloading I would read Sandra's blog she has great advice for gutloading...
Do you know his weight? Also can you post pictures of his whole body?
Some times when a panther is overweight theory casque has what looks like bumps because it's very fatty. It's generally not a big issue as long as he is not over fed. As for the guy loading - I would strongly suggest throwing...
Would you please full this out, also is this your first panther?

Incase you didn't know chameleons have fat pads on their heads, it looks like you are just seeing some chub back there but regardless it will help us to see your husbandry...
