    Misting at night

    Temp. I even tried a room ac to supplement the central ac, but it didn’t work out.

    Misting at night

    2 minutes is a lot for night. I would do 1 minute or less. What are your night temps? I’m on the space coast and can’t get below 73-74 without an electric bill that would bankrupt me.

    This a UVB burn?

    Some vets do advise 10.0 (Arcadia 12%) uvb, but we want to stay with the 5.0 or 6%. Make sure there is a distance of 8-9” between basking lights and basking branch. That does look like a burn, but I can’t be 100% certain.

    Misting at night

    I’m not able to achieve low enough night temps for fogging, so I do run a couple of 15 second mistings during the night for a subtle boost of humidity. In addition to my 2 minute mistings before lights on and off, I have a 1 minute misting in the afternoon. All my chameleons’ urates are nice and...

    Is there any way to get rid of the cricket stink?

    First, what kind of crickets do you have? Domestic crickets are the ones usually sold by pet stores and not only do they stink far worse, but they also die off quicker. Banded crickets are most definitely much much better and are available by most on line bug vendors. It’s also important to...

    Panther vomited 😬

    Parasites are not able to be seen in poos without a microscope, which I believe identifies their eggs. There are several different types and no one medication treats all. This is why a fresh fecal is needed - identify which parasite to determine which med is the correct one. Parasites can cause...

    Panther vomited 😬

    If you’re able to get a fresh poo, it would be good to get him checked for parasites. That is my first suspect of what may be going on, aside from husbandry error (I assume all is good there). Nothing against your vet (don’t know him or her), but do be cautious if medication is prescribed or...

    Where do I even start?!

    Yes, it’s perfectly fine to have 2 separate UVBs - 1 on each side. Each side you still want to be the same type and strength though - Arcadia Pro T5 with their 6% (Forest dwellers) uvb bulb. Depending on what plants you get, you may not need more than the one jungle dawn. Plants that are...

    Where do I even start?!

    If I can’t place one really long tube across the length of the top due to the plastic in the middle could I just do two bulbs but obviously smaller? Would that be suitable? Yes, that would work fine. I’ll have to do some more looking into the heat source as I know no dep heat projector and no...

    Pretty colors

    Indy is a beauty! 🥰

    Where do I even start?!

    Having the option to change out the doors to screen, that is what I would opt to do. T5 is the type of light fixture. It’s linear and you want it to be able to span the entire width of your enclosure. The strength of the uvb is what levels of uvb it puts out. 6% is what is ideal for chameleons...

    Diapause for panther chameleons

    I would say to look at what the temps are in the appropriate locale of Madagascar. However, air temps and below ground temps will most definitely differ greatly.

    Zebra and tiger silkworm eggs available

    @ChamelaChameleon Just wanted you to know I’m thinking about you today. Some friends emerged last night and were having a wild party. 🥳 All five are totally crashed out right now. 😴 For all of their wild flapping around, they left only 6 eggs. I’m sure tonight will be more once they get their...

    Where do I even start?!

    Ok, well we can certainly help you out. :) First, what kind of chameleon are you thinking about getting? Each has their own needs in certain areas. Humidity is one of those areas. I would suggest buying a hygrometer to check what your humidity is in your home and space where you would be...

    white casque

    In this pic it just looks like a part of his natural coloration. Chameleons tend to always keep us on our toes. ;)

    Healthy Trade Institute

    https://healthytrade.org/ I just stumbled across this and wondered if anyone else has heard of them? Their mission sounds good and they do have a few different animals for adoption (mostly ball pythons atm). I’m just curious. It seems that they may be in their somewhat early stages, and if they...
