Hi guys my other half thinks I’m being over protective and worrying about nothing, but for the past few days Rhea has been showing her ‘stress’ colours and has been cage wall crawling pretty much all day. Nothing has changed in her enclosure in the past week. Temps are always around 80f at...

I am at a loss with what to do with my panther chameleon Julian. I have taken him to 3 different exotic vets, the most recent being highly recommended by many people. His fecals were negative for parasites, his bloodwork came back fantastic according to the vet, no obvious signs of kidney issues...

Your Chameleon - Veiled, male, and roughly a year. A few weeks this Saturday? Handling - Only a few times? Feeding - Crickets, hornworms and I want to start getting silk worms (crickets are gut loaded) 6-8 a day, maybe 1 every other day for horn worm. Feeding in the morning. Gutloading with...

I'm far enough along where feedback would be super helpful in getting this enclosure ready for Yoda. He's getting another fecal test in early August, so that's the tentative move-in timing. My questions for ya'll are in the sub-bullets. Chameleon Info: Your Chameleon - Veiled male Chameleon...

Hi there welcome to the forum.... A few questions on your boy.... I just want to double check this... What bulb strength are you using? what is the distance to the branch below it? When was the bulb replaced? I think he is getting far too much supplementation. This is where I would start if he...

So I looked for the light in a different place and there is one from Walmart that’s the exact same one. Since Black Friday is coming up do you think it’ll get cheaper?? It’s 35 on the website right now I hope it does if not I’m sure I have a coupon laying around or a discount with my Walmart...

Hi hun see my feedback in red bold. :) Chameleon Info: Your Chameleon - Veiled male Chameleon named Yoda. Got him from FL Chams back in March. He's around 6-7 months old. Handling - I've been handling him daily to give him silvadene ointment for an early stage thermal burn. He doesn't like to...

@Hpyrok See my feedback and questions in Bold. Your Chameleon - The species, sex, and age of your chameleon. How long has it been in your care? Veiled Chameleon, Male, unsure of age, we have had him since September 30, 2020. Looks to be sub adult or adult... Handling - How often do you...

He can use his tail. His back grip is decent but his front a little weak. He usualy puts his head up after eating and drinking (he has always done this) he had just eaten a little. He does not usually keep his mouth open. Ill check what my uvb is right away. He is my first Chameleon, I have also...

How can I test for parasites? He has never actually eaten his fake plants and the guy I got him from gave who has a bunch of reptiles and amphibians gaveme a list of veggies tooffer if he seems to be eyeballing his plants. And I only give him steam showers bc thats what others have told me.

Chameleon Info: Your Chameleon - veiled, male, 3 years old. In my care for 3 years. Handling - only for steam showers or as needed. Please never ever bring your chameleon in the shower. no reason is good enough to justify a shower, its superstressfull and can create thermal shock and can lead...

Ditch the halogens and the UV cards. They already explained why you should get rid of the halogen. You need to ditch the UV card because it measures if there is any UV output not UVB output all by itself. So it could give you a positive reading but the bulb isn't putting out the correct...

so I am also an avid reef aquarium hobbyist and I noticed the other day that my LEDs light up my UVB testing cards. Specifically the ultraviolet purple LED bulbs the one that are around 420nanometer. Led technoligy is a newer technoligy in the reef trade and was wondering when it will come into...

Not all UVB is created equal. Light is a spectrum, and only certain wave lengths within that UVB spectrum are of any benefit to the animal.

Can you post a pic of the cage. I would think that would be enough but I would like to see the cage. You can buy some cards that test the UVB at petsmart. They look like credit cards, im not sure how accurate they actually are but I use them and they seem to work well. To tell how wide a bulb is...

Im.jusy gonna say hi and watch this thread. I almost bought led reef lighting to for like 75% off on letgo.... but I wasn't sure about the uvb and the seller wasn't either. I have test cards too and when I told Todd that from lightyourreptiles.com.... he ask how much I paid for them... I said 99...

To get into the important things first, I did not see any mentioning of a UVB light? If you do have one, is it a 10.0 or 6.0 bulb? It's also very important that his basking temperature be about 90 degrees for proper digestion. Multivitamins are suppose to be given twice a month and not every...

whoops, sorry forgot to add the questions Your Chameleon - 1yr male veiled cham, had him for 2 months ish Handling - daily, only because i have to give him medicine and feed him (im having to feed him by opening his mouth with a credit card and forcing him to eat, his med makes him lose his...
