im using reptisun 5.0 for 12 on 12 off.
for 4 hours a day i put an additional 100w power sun about 14in away.
I hand mist 4-6 times a day (depending on temps/humidity).
Basking temps are never higher then 87-89.
bottom of cage...
Thanks :)
that's what happened ... i left them alone and 2 of the 3 hatched ... I put the 2 neonates in their baby cage ... they don't seem to be eating though .?.?.
She has been ignoring the crickets which has made supllemnting almost impossible ... I've been dipping the superworms in calcyionate syrup ... What can I do to stimulate her appetite and get her back to normal ???
About 20 mins ago I softly held her behind the neck and gently pushed a superworm against the front of her mouth till she bit it ... she didn't try to swallow it until the third time she bit down on it ...
This was her first clutch ... I paired her with imhotep on 12.18.11 and 12.19.11 ... She layed 22 eggs and buried them herself on 02.14.12 ... She didn't drop any eggs premeturally ... Egg laying went as excpected and she shows no signs that she may still be eggbound ... Ill know in a few weeks...
My 14 month old female panther just laid her eggs about 2 weeks ago ... since then she doesnt eat crickets or worms ... I read in the forums that panthers will eat scrambled eggs .?.?.
What can I do to force feed a panther chameleon ???
Weekly :)
My two females get fed every other day and poop about twice a week ... I leave paper towels lining the cage and swap em weekly ... It makes for easy clean up and it reduces puddling from the auto-msiting
Do you have a specific gut load just for superworms ???
I just finished making your recipes for dry and wet cricket gut loads ... had so much fun that I figured I'd do some for the supers too ... Any suggestions ???
Thank you,
I feed them both 10-12 three-eighth inch crickets EVERY day 5 hours after the lights come on. They both will eat as many crickets as i can feed em in 15-30 mins. Crazy appetites and big wet dark feces with slightly-yellowish white urinate.

my 9 month old ambilobe female has recently started to close her eyes during the day time. Wasn't alarmed till i noticed that the past few days she has been sitting near the UVB with her eyes closed and her heart is pounding in her neck. Her color has been pretty dark lately.
How critical is...
