    Build progress...how are we doing?

    You might want to check out this link for your lighting. https://chameleonacademy.com/chameleon-cage-set-up-replicating-the-sun/ Is the quad one reflector for all 4 bulbs to share or does each one have its own reflector? Reason why I ask is a 12% is a really strong bulb to go with. Since you...

    Help needed

    Yea, they will climb the screen cage... but it's not a screen cage. The background is of an unknown material, and the other side looks like glass. The reason posted that, is because i don't know what the background is made of, and if it is a material he can't climb, then the lamp can stay. I...

    Build progress...how are we doing?

    Thanks! That’s exactly what I modeled the lighting on... the ATI quad has four single reactors, so according to Bills figures that would put a single fixture 12% at 7” above top of cage...I went 8.5” for a safety factor. Should still have plenty penetration to be sufficient. Good call on the...

    Help needed! Vitamin A deficiency

    Thank you so much!! I have the moss in there to keep humidity but what do you mean by bio active? Also do you have any suggestions for getting it warmer in there? And do you think the eye bubbling will go away with changes made to his husbandry or is it something to be more concerned about? I...

    I dont know what happened...

    For the UVB YOU have to have the T5HO fixture and the 5.0 Bulb for it. This should run the width of your cage and you then have basking branch 9 inches away. BUT babies will climb the roof as well So their cage has to be set up differently for them so they do not get overexposure to the UVB. So...

    UVB question, input needed

    So you want a branch going horizontally across at 7 inches down from the top on each side. He will choose the areas that he prefers. But with the fixture raised by the hump in the cabinet you have to account for the 2 inches above the screen on the sides with where your basking branch is. Keep...

    Baby Jackson's chameleon housing

    The plastic tub method can save you some money if you happen to have one around. I prefer glass for newborns/hatchlings for a few reasons. One they can't climb up to the top like they do screen and get too close to the lights and there is less variation in the temperatures and humidity. Wrapping...

    I have some problem with my chameleon. Please help!

    What you are experiencing is quite normal IME with Veileds. They go through phases as they mature. Making sure that you have a feeder run or cup for them to eat from if they are not hand feeding is very important. it is important to know if he is not eating due to maturity or if he is not...

    Senegal chameleon

    Whether you use screen or glass is entirely dependent on the natural environment of the keeper and the husbandry they provide. There is not necessarily any one "way to go". Especially when taking different types of chameleons in to consideration as well. Plenty of keepers are very successful...

    Veiled Cham hiding all morning?

    Most petstore dont know anything about chameleons. He’s just scared of you. He think of you as a predator, someone who is going to eat him or hurt him. Shedding can cause then not to eat, it’s normal. As they mature as well there attitude will change and they’ll become territorial if there cage...
