Flies are not nutritious, and ones from the "wild" can contain parasites, so they're not recommended for feeding.

You Said... Which is why I said not to tell people not to use them, they are perfectly fine now. They were putting out too much UVB, now it's comparable to the ReptiSun 5.0 linear tubes. If a new owner came on here and saw your post, he might have a false impression of CFL's.

They corrected the issue, why would it happen again? Just because you don't want to use CFL's doesn't give you the right to claim they're bad when they're not.

You can use CFL's with chameleons just fine, please don't spread misinformation. I have owned and purchased many light fixtures for my fish and reptiles, and none have ever had a plastic cover over the light, which is why I asked.

So are his urates white or not?

You shouldn't be using the soil it comes in, you need to replace it and wash all the old soil off the roots. Organic soil is crap IMO, it's full of bark and other substances that attract gnats and other bugs. I prefer sterilized soil.

No this paint is waterproof, I have had no issues with paint. Plus you shouldn't have any standing water in your enclosure in the first place.

have a DIY cage as well, and I used Valspar brand, used the forest green color came out amazing.

What plastic? Does your have plastic that covers the bulb or something?

Are you sure about those temps? I use a 60w bulb and only get 85 degrees tops.

Wouldn't dirt cause impaction? Or is that just for the additives they add into soil?

I posted in this thread yesterday, strange my post got deleted. I wasn't a huge fan of the movie, but the Fear and Loathing refrence was awesome!

You might need a certain number of posts to make an album, I am not sure.

Do you live on the island of Cyprus? Can you get pics of the chameleon? I would read up on the basics here if it's a veiled: http://raisingkittytheveiledchameleon.blogspot.com/

Sure the pain is real, but it's a soap opera for hillbillies, and it's no sport, it's pure entertainment. The wrestling is so fake it's unbearable to watch, they don't even hit eachother with full force. Not trying to start a fight here, just my opinion on the subject.

Just use water, spray down the plant with your mister all the soap will come right off. I took my schleffera and dunked both the roots and plant itself in a 5gal bucketf full of soapy water, cleaned off all the home depot dirt.

I keep my veiled around 30-40% between misting, they come from a dry climate and are used to humidity like this. When I mist it goes up to about 70% for an hour before it dries out.

If you're getting them from the small/medium bin, they should be 1/4" to 3/4" in size, I never get consistent sizes.

Well if he just got him in today, he probably just hasn't eaten yet. I would wait and see what he says first.
