A regular light bulb I would use for the house is good for basking? Do I put both lights on at one time? Do I put the lights directly on the wire mesh?
THANKS for the link! But it doesn't say what kind of bulb to get and do I need a basking light too?? What kind of basking light and how many watts??
Thanks again
Okay I have babies hatching and I need specifics on how to set up their living area. What kind of lighting do they need, what kind of plants are good for them, etc, etc.....
Please all the info on raising these little guys is greatly appreciated!!!!!
Thanks for responding!
Yes, the two that are alive took deep breaths when they came out but the other ones that died just laid there and didn't move at all.

It came out :) now how long until the other one's start coming out? I left it in there so maybe it will wake the other little guys up :) I will take it out in an hour or so.
Hey everyone! One of my veild chameleons is hatching right now, how long does it take until it comes completly out of the shell? It's head is sticking out and it is just laying there not doing nothing, every once in a while it will try to pick its head up or you can see it breathing slightly...
I'm in Northern California so do you think one single hole is good enough? And yes there are veins and another one that I opened actually had a tiny body attatched to the black dots but all the yolk stuff was hard (the egg was hard) thats the reason I opened the egg up. Okay, I'm going to put...
