That's what I was thinking.. they probably just wanted to sell something.
The cage I bought is an all screen cage. It's 24 x 24 x48.
I'm not sure exactly what the floor is. It's just like a white sheet that's laid down. Not as strong as wood, but not as weak as cardboard.
The plan is to get a...
Hey guys,
I have a jacksons chameleon, and I just got the little guy a new cage.
I looked for soil at walmart, but when I asked them for non-fertilized soil, they acted like they didn't know what was going on.
So... I went to my local pet shop, and they advised me to use this Reptilite...
Hey guys,
I ordered a 24 x 24 x 48 all screened cage. I have a jackson's chameleon. He's a little under a year old. Right now (Saturday), I have him in a 36 x 18 x 12 glass aquarium. I know he can't be comfortable. The new cage will be here Wednesday.
So my question...
I've seen A LOT of...
Hey guys,
I've had my chameleon for about a week now. This whole week, he's been living in a 36 x 18 x 16 glass aquarium. He always looks like he's trying to get out through the top. I'm just assuming he is wanting to climb more?
Well, I just ordered a 24 x 24 x 48 all screened cage. I hope he...

Hey guys,
I posted a thread last night talking about my chameleon sleeping about an hour before the lights shut off.
I was told an early bedtime is nothing to worry about, and that I should only worry if he started sleeping during the day.
Well.. it's 5:11pm (Illinois), and he has been...
I posted a picture of him on a different thread. I was told he looks almost a year old.
His basking spot is usually between 80 and 85 degrees.
And everyone on here has been telling me to switch to a screen cage asap.
I'm very new to this whole thing so I wouldn't know.
As for the...
This is my third post about my recently purchased chameleon.
Right now, he's in a 36 x 18 x 16 glass cage with a screened lid.
I'm ordering a 24 x 24 x 48 cage that is all screened.
But for now.. I just checked the temperature (10:37pm in Illinois), and it is at 75 degrees F. The lights are...
Hello guys,
I have another concern about my little friend. Like I said before, my girlfriend and I purchased a Jackson's Chameleon from PetSmart. We have had him for four days now. I was told today to take to remove the waterfall I had in the cage and to remove the infrared light I kept on at...
I have seen him up during the night a couple times. Hopefully his sleeping pattern is just a little off.
I would say the UVB bulb is about 10 - 12 inches from the top of the cage.
Here's a couple pictures of the setup.
The UVB bulb is in the bigger lamp on the left.
Thank you very much!
One more thing. He does close his eyes/sleep during the day. Not very much, but it does happen.
I took out the waterfall and got rid of the infrared light the moment I read the replies.
Any ideas?
