Does it come and go? It may his "mood" my guy strikes up a white smile when he gets scared.

Haha, I understand. I use arcadia 6.0 tubes (24"). I have heard they last longer than most UVB bulbs.
Free ranging in the sun is a really good practice, as I believe the suns uvb output is about 6X greater than any uvb bulb on the market.
Which may answer the original question. Wild...
Very true. As for its toxicity, im not too worried. As stated above the Gesneriad family isn't known for being toxic.
But majority of plants can be considered "toxic" to some degree...
I found this document, it states that some of our staple plants (Shefflera, Ficus) are considered "toxic"...
Hey guys, just bought a very nice hanging vine. Its a Black Pagoda. Is it toxic for my chameleon?

Hey guys, Had a concern about my new baby ambanja chameleon. He has been with me just over a week. He seems to be settling in to a routine. He will crawl down near the bottom of the cage at around 6pm (when the sun goes down) and puts on his "Pajamas" and sits on a baby tears leaf and sleeps...
Hey thanks Angela! Hope your Jackson pair are settling in nicely:) Thanks for the info. He seems to be eating a bit better everyday. Im really happy with him, I think it just needed a few days. He showed some blues for the first time today. Just beautiful:)
He seems to be getting more comfortable in the set up. He ate early this morning out of a cup, two crickets. HE generally wont eat till late afternoon. But he ate two right away, did some walking around and came back and ate another two. Hopefully he eats some more soon, Id like to see him eat...
The mother. CB Ambilobe. Love her blues around the eyes. I really can see the attraction to females. She is a doll. My guy takes after her with the "Y" bar.
Well I may have broken a rule, He was pacing up and down the side of the cage. So I draped a rope from his enclosure to my scheff. He took to the outside adventure and his colours were great. Very Colourful, His eyes were peach. Red tips and dots. Maroon bars on a white/beige base. Very bright...
There is a chance he is about to shed, but I cant say for sure. He had no shed on him when I got him, so he could shed any day, or in a few weeks I guess.
No wheezing or gaping, except for the occasional yawn. I figured I will let him get used to the enclosure for a bit, before I go through...

Great! thanks. I think I will only have this humidity issue in winter months, luckily Winnipeg has tropical summer months almost, which is quite the turn around from our dry -40 C winters.
I have a digital hygrometer and it reads about 30-40 % most of the time. I have a 4 gal humidifier running into the enclosure as well as a misting system and dripper. it doesn't ever read more than 50% or so at mistings (unless I spray directly on it- goes to 70-80%)
Im just wondering if im...
Snails sound like a good idea, but aren't very practical. Its been said that they could take up to a year to breed and grow to size. Check here

I have My every other week "multi-vitamin" which is a repashy Calcium plus LoD. (I also use Repashy SuperCal NoD everyday.)
On the multi it says it contains "Vitamin A min. 80,000 IU/lb" Is this enough vitamin A to combat eye issues?
