I've had my female Jackson's Chameleon for about two weeks now. I know that Jackson's give birth to live young. Are their any indicators of pregnancy, if I have no idea if she's been with a male in the past? I'm starting to notice that she's somewhat plump when relaxed, is she just fat or could...
I set up the 24"x24"x48" cage this week for my female Jackson's and she loves it. I filled it with plants and vines. She seems so tiny in there but that's how they feel in nature, I think she's thankful for her new home :). Good choice on the larger one btw.
Sorry guys there is definitely a UVB bulb, I just didn't have it with the picture because I just finished setting the cage up. For now I'm misting and I have a cup dripping until I get a commercial dripper. Do you guys keep a water dish in there in case the Chameleon decides to drink from it?
Thanks Juju. It's a bathroom toiletry holder. I've also attached branches from it, there will also be room to put a mealworm feeding dish at one of the lower levels.

Sorry I had a long day. I guess what I'm trying to ask is the following............If schedule the heat light to turn on at 6 am when the sun rises, and I turn it off at 6pm there will still be natural light coming in until 8 or 9 during the summer. Should the heat lamp be turned off at 6pm...
Thanks for the links and information. A question about the timer for the lights, what time do you have yours set for? My place starts getting natural light early in the morning, should I set the heat lamp to go off then or a little later?
