Over the past year or less my life has started to take off...with finishing up school and work full time it is hard to take the proper care of my veiled chameleon as I normally would. I am asking for an adoption no fees just a good home...if he cant find one here on the forums the place I...

10.0 UVB output is excessive. Better safe than sorry!

Soft twist ties work wonders :)

They fall much farther in the wild...just keep an eye on his limbs.

Let him come out and roam around.

If its real that cant be healthy.

Could be a thermal burn...how far is the perch from the basking bulb? Or could there be something sharp she got ahold of cause it looks like more of a wound than a burn but thats IMO....:o Dont feel timid to use a minute amount of neosporin on those...

If I were you I would not offer this advice especially when you advise its ok to leave chams home for 6 days sheesh call it a week! The Original poster probably doesnt have a timer for the lights so therefore they would be left on 24/7 a huge detriment and stress to the cham...what if he did...

Soaking him wouldnt hurt even very gentle rubbing perhaps... Sperm plug? thats my only guess :o

Someone has the case of the blues :rolleyes:

I feel that would be too hott unless its like lower 50's in your house apt... try using a 80w or even a 75w they will suffice. I have kept alot of beardies... and this post about beardies belongs in the other reptiles section of the forum. I would put that 150w over the beardie they need...

Roid rage jeeze :)

Just the problem I had. I was about to trash the fixture when i noticed that if i turned that starter they would flicker on and off. The starter has to be turned correctly in order to work I think lol...:p

We could speculate for hours on "why" but little to know the answer :o Is there any extra skin that he didnt shed and hes simply trying to rub it off?

Im not seeing the pictures trying re-uploading...I had the same problem with my fixture i thought it was broken!

Yes you could try the veggies...he will definatley eat the locust etc...but you could also try carrots or another vegetable.

He should be ready.

No it would not. Coil style UV bulbs are unsafe in the long run especially for a young cham like yours. They have been known to cause eye issues although some keepers have had no problems and others have in this case its better to be safe than sorry :) I would reccomend the reptisun 5.0...

Hi What kind of lighting do you have for her? I wouldnt suggest doing anything yet until we get some pictures and more info on your husbandry.
