Thanks k yo Thank you for the info I am used to desert reptiles like Uromaystxs and whatnot so I tend to really worry about heat because I have to be so careful. (Not saying don't be careful with the Chams just some of the more finicky desert species.) I'll also message the site supporter : )

Thanks for the info. I am stuck between a 48*24*24 and a 24*48*24. I am thinking of leaning towards the horizontal cage setup which would be the only real way for a 48 long fixture. And okay I was just worried about night temps and I planned to house him in my wife and I's room which would...

Oh man. That sounds like it was a rough time. He is lucky you stuck with him and had the patience to change his life for the better. Your rescue is even more impressive due to how long parrots live. He definitely looks a bit silly but still cute. I've only ever had parakeets myself and after my...

Oh or would say 1 for him and another for the plants be good? Then I can use a dual deep dome for a night light and heat lamp? Does that seem viable? I see some lighting posts around but I am still a bit uncertain.

If I was going to due a dual 24" bulb from the FYI sponsor website. What are some good bulbs? And what should I do for night time? This was one of the things I had a harder time digging through information wise. T8 5.0? So would this be a good bulb...

Haven't you heard it's all the rage now haha. I am sure somewhere on Etsy this may exist.

Well if you are ever in the area again we have a local reptile expo and we are trying to do it again this year. Going to see if we can somehow convince Brian to stop by haha.

I mean gutloading them with those foods not raw, sorry if I was being unclear.

I'll keep this simple and do discussion from there. Vitamin D3, Calcium, food dusting, and a Monthly/Bimonthly multivitamin. Staples: Superworms Silkworms Dunia Roaches Occasionally: Hornworms Waxworks And the like. Gutload: Kale Chard Mustard Greens Basil Cilantro Carrots (Squash and...

I avoid mealworms all together with all of my lizards. There are alternatives and mealworms are generally harder to digest due to their outsides versus say superworms. I feel it's best to avoid them in general even though nothing may ever arise I have heard of others using them and say their...

His gut load sounds more like breeding food for fully developed roaches. Just like with superworm once they become beetles their food is quite different than what you gut load feeders on. As others said dark greens are great. I don't have to worry as much because my beardies eat greens with...

Oh wow, yes that is the place. When I first went there I bumped into cages often by accident. I learned the people are good peoole but yes that shop is way way way too small. When I talked to her on the phone today about the cham she mentioned they were trying to find a bigger place but they...

So what's everyone think about wide vs tall? 48*24*24 vs 24*48*24

I understand what you are saying and recently I learned that this was not the shops fault. It was the commissioner and that they after this refuse to do business with him in the future because of this incident. They showed me that they have been working with him on his health. The situation came...

Yes, real plants all the way (save maybe a cloth vine or two). The misting will be temporary, I do plan to get a mister. Just for maybe a month will I do the misting by hand.

Good to know. I see 48*24*24 as the basic and must for a full adult so that is what I will go for. As for my availability I will be around every day all day as I am a stay at home dad and my wife works. A mister will be a need to get for regularity and on the small times we are away from home...

I moved the discussion to a new thread about setup. https://www.chameleonforums.com/threads/first-timer-adult-panther-male-setup.155149/

Hello guys, After my rocky start I am working down the path of acquiring my chameleon at the end of the month. Right now I am digging into all the appropriate information and looking at his to be setup right now i figured it would be good to pick all of you veteran's brains. Cage, lighting...

Good to know. So basically hand misting isn't viable like with bearded dragons? (who of course are quite drier). Would I be able to get away with hand misting for say a month? I'm not looking to bargain brand it of course I just need to get him set up fast. Does the 48x24x24 seem like the best...

Got some good news. My funds are a bit in flux at the moment due to fighting a garnishment (we got it reversed yay). But I talked to the owner just now and the offer of 400 was accepted. I need to put 200 down (I expected 100 or 25% but this is doable). I just need to get working on his cage...
