The treath of salmonella in reptiles is a statement that anti-reptile organizations use all the time as their biggest "weapon". The threat of salmonella from reptiles is present, but maninly is aquatic species like turtles. The threat of salmonella from chameleons I would say is very slim...

Stunning female. I remember my first trip to Madagascar and the first wild chameleon I found was actually a lateralis in the back of our hotel. In and around the capital of Antananarivo they where abondant, with one male in almost every bush, just a few meters apart.

What kind of food do you use, and if you use chow, how do you prepare it? I use chow that I cook myself and serve 1-4 times a day, depending on the size of the worms. The temperature is also important on the development, I never go below 80 Fahrenheit. Ofcourse there is something called genes...

I am currently breeding my own silkworms, and have done so for a couple of generations. I have done my own growth statistics and find it very facinating. Does anyone else do their own breeding, and have some stats to compare? I generally get them to about 3inches and around 6grams before...

3,25inch Silkworm

If you have one or 5 tubes it will not affect the amount of uv given, it will increase the spread of the uv radiation, but the intensity will remain the same at any given distance from the bulb. Take a look at one of my other posts about the radtion from a 5.0 tube...

Solar Raptor wich is the superior choice when it comes to MVB (Mercury Vapor Bulb) has given out a 35W UVB spot bulb wich would be great for juveniles. The MVB give good uv-values up to 40-50 cm from the bulb, but not as good spread as the tubes.

What is the distance from the Uv-tube and to where the chameleons actually sit? Let me give you some info on uv-values from this tube. A brand new tube of ReptiGlo 5.0 (measured after 90hours wich is the socalled burn-in time): Distance from bulb: Values µW/cm² 0cm...

I do not agree to the statement about self regulation UVb needs. Has anyone ever measured the intensity given by our UV sources compared to their natural intensity? Well I have, and a brand new (measured after 90 hours use witch is the burnin time) ReptiGlo 5.0 gives an intensity of 80uW/cm2...

Interessting topic. To understand our animals in captivity, we need to take a look at our animals in their natural habitat and their natural behaviour. Several studies has shown that Furcifer pardalis is an oppertunistic predator, not a pure insectivore as some litterature and hobby...

I would like to reply that this is not a normal behaviour. I am not the type to give you a final conclusion on this matter, but the answer closest to the truth is a lack of minerals. Try increasing the amount of mineral/vitamins given to your chameleon, or change the brand. Personally I use the...

I would like to present myself as I am new to this forum. I have keept chameleons since 2004 and reptiles in general since 1992. The chameleons of Madagascar are my absolute favorites, and I got to obtain my long time dream of visiting Madagascar in March of 2010. This trip was like dream...
