Chameleon Info: Your Chameleon - Veiled chameleon, male, guessing ~1-1.5 years old? Wild caught in Florida about two weeks ago, mailed to my home on the west coast ~1 week ago. Handling - Not at all. He went straight from the box he was mailed in to his enclosure. I handled him for a few...

I’ve used/am using some of the Fluker’s. They seem to do just fine. I haven’t kept track of how long they last and imo, all light/basking bulbs don’t last long enough.

Cage Info: Cage Type - Describe your cage (Glass, Screen, Combo?) Screen What are the dimensions? 16x16x30 zoomed reptibreeze chameleon kit Regardless of gender, your cham will need at least a 2x2x4’ enclosure the soonest you can get and by adulthood. If you have the space and funds...

He ate his meal on Monday of 5 Dubias and then on Friday I went to feed him again and I noticed he more or less ignored his food. Yesterday morning I noticed he was not really moving around and caught him sleeping mid day but no tail curl just eyes closed. Today he seems even worse off as...

Yep, thankfully the ban doesn't apply to animal-specific lighting. I have had no trouble in the past ordering halogen reptile bulbs. Getting incandescents shipped to my door from Home Depot is a different story. Kinda sucks. I hate reptile brand lighting. All of it seems too strong...

In that case, I suppose this is sort of an ”it is what it is” situation, and I’ll probably have to go with bulbs marketed toward reptiles. Glad to hear the Fluker’s brand has worked out okay, because so far it’s the cheapest option. I’m guessing so? Looks like I can order the bulbs you linked...

Hey there. This is what I see.... Way too hot ambient and basking. Basking should be 80-85 and ambient should be low 70's. Room air conditioner is often needed in summers to keep temps where they should be. Cricket crack is higher in protein at 16%. Which means this is going to cause more...

I found the mistking available from a few spots but was shocked what some people are asking for them This is the retailer I purchased from https://www.mistking.com/home.php LLL is a southern California reptile store...

Sorry that took so long I had to get my little one to bed. See my response below in bold: Hello guys I recently purchased a male rainbow Jackson chameleon from underground reptile in Florida. I'm located in Pennsylvania got the little guy overnighted 3 days ago. Unfortunately today he seems to...

Cage Info: Cage Type - 2x2x4 combo 3 sided glass, top bottom and front door is screen Perfect! Lighting - reptizoo t5 uvb What strength is your uvb bulb? ReptiSun 5.0 or Arcadia 6% is the ideal standard. Then the distance between basking area and lights can/should be about 8-9” which will...

I currently have the reptisun T5 5.0 linear bulb. The problem im having is that when i set it directly on the screen, the temp in his basking spot is about 90 (which can creep up to 95-100 during the day). His basking area is about 6" from the top, so I am concerned he is baking. Because of...

actually top of the cage is probably about 6 feet off the ground

Hello All, So with with the weather about to get chillier, I am a few weeks away from my annual "switching of the bulbs" where I swap out my 75 watt incandescent basing bulb to a higher wattage 150 watt basking bulb (both are always hooked up to a thermostat but my local summers get quite warm...

That's not a lot more (maybe the same) as I just paid for some incandescent floods. I don't live in Cali, but I read others' posts, and this question comes up quite often. https://www.chameleonforums.com/search/1254517/?q=basking+bulb+in+california&o=relevance

Putting my feedback in bold. My Chameleon -Veiled (Pascal), male, 6-9 months. Been in my care for around two weeks. Handling - Not often. Twice since getting him home. It’s good to start building trust with him for when you do need or want to handle him. This is a great blog...

Thank you! ive always been confused about the correct temp for jacksons. I live in california so it gets extremely hot in my area, my room itself gets up to 80 degrees. I switched his bulb to a 75w house bulb and the basking temp seemed to go down. i just got him a mistking so ill try running it...

Hey guys, Does anyone know good alternative heat/basking bulbs besides incandescents? I live in California so these types of bulbs are unavailable for purchase. I currently am using a basking bulb produced by reptisun but these can get pricey. Any thoughts? Thank you
