Most of the issues with your setup/feeding/gutloading are addressed in this caresheet, as well as some things about egg laying. Female chams lay eggs regardless if they were mated with a male or night. https://www.chameleonforums.com/care/caresheets/panther/

Do you have a saltwater fish store around you? Most (at least the good ones) use RO/DI water in their systems and sell the water at about a dollar a gallon. I had my own unit for my tanks long before I got into the cham thing but sold it when I moved to college. Now I buy store water. lol

No one has any experience with high output LEDs for chams?

Hmm..I don't know if this applies for chameleons, but I do saltwater tanks and lately we have been switching over to high output LEDs. The only reason I am thinking about suggesting looking into this for you is because I've noticed that some people use high output T5s for their chams, which...

You said the breeder offered a 7 day guarantee which increased to 30 if you bought a setup? We're not allowed to bash names on here, but I've been doing a lot of shopping around lately and have only noticed one site that offered that. Not mentioning names, was this poor fella bought from one...

Well, I know who's ideas I'm copying next! Stunning work, congrats!

I'm still pretty new to chams myself, but I thought I would ask the butter worm thing because I've noticed a few threads popping up where some chams had an allergic reaction to them that turned their neck/throat area black. The best way to get some of the senior members to help ya out is to...

Have you fed butterworms?

:rolleyes: lol Congrats on the success!

My bad! I didn't know there was a difference, I thought it was just a UVB bulb. Sorry for spreading bad advice, listen to the others! lol

Haha I can sort of mimic your light schedual! The fixture runs off of one plug, but has two built in timers and a LED "moon light". Only thing that sucks is that the LEDs don't have a timer, just the bulbs. Each has its own switch though, so I can just turn the LEDs off so its 100% dark at...

Nice shots! How do you pronounce your little one's name? Dee-on-eye-sus?

They're so cute!!!

I was planning on a strictly chow diet for these little fellas. =)

By the time I get him my cham will be 6 months old. Does arcadia also sell the different kelvin rating plant bulbs? I don't even know where to look...

Thanks, guys! When I actually get this stuff I'll resurrect this thread with some pictures if I can find it. =)

Actually, one more question! I was talking about separating the silkies by the weeks I hatch them. Is that even necessary? They aren't cannibals, right? And I could tell which ones to feed by how big they were, no?

Hm, I may still try it, but if my silkies die I'll know why. I don't have a bug/reptile room. This is just one pet chameleon who's cage is in my bedroom. I have a closet/attic that I was planning on storing the bins in with heat lamps. I wasn't originally going to give the silkies a lamp...

Well, I kinda get the feeling that if just you send in a letter these corporate big wigs are just gonna ball it up and put it in the circular file cabinet, if you know what I mean. If it has a bunch of names on it, it might up the shock value and make them pay attention, especially if all of...
