I have the same thing @jamest0o0 has. The owner is awesome and if you have any questions he helps right away and seems just as excited as you are. its worth saving up !
Honestly im going to do the same for mine, maybe some chams are just a little more wild than others lol. every single one of them has their own little personality. Best of luck! hope the new enclosure will help!
I already changed out the soil with organic rinsing down the roots and the leaves to prep it for his cage. I did notice the bottom leaves that looked new were completely green. I just want to make sure its not a different kind of schefflera that's poisonous because my little one likes to munch...
Im newer to chameleons and I feel you never stop learning about them. I feel like an overprotected mom who is always monitoring and making sure he has what he needs lol. but this forum is awesome to look up things. If you go to the resources tab there's a ton of tips on how to care for them...
I don't think you would feed again. Feeding them in the morning allows them time to bask and digest their food properly. I personally wouldn't feed mine later in the day. But I am no expert D:
im currently building my adult cage for my veild and I want to get large plants. I have devils ivy for the living wall along with a hibiscus. I bought a Schefflera arboricola from home depot (its listed as a Schefflera arboricola on the tag) but the leaves have a natural yellow coloring mixed in...
So within only a couple months it seems my little boy has out grown his cage. Time sure flew and i didnt even notice he had grow so much. I got him a large clear side dragon strand cage with the drainage tray. Im making a living/great stuff wall full of live plants and branches. I plan on having...
I was on vacation and so happy to come back and see this! I didnt even think about how it can be different in his perspective, and i really want to have my cage 90% real plants. This helps out so much thank you for it! Im going to buy him a new large hybrid cage from dragon strand and really try...
i have to head to walmart tomorrow morning so im going to pick up a couple and test them out. I got that blue one with the set up and just went with it. it does give off heat its just not enough so I will definitely look into house ones. I have no clue that was even a possibility.
i try not to be a crazy mom but i love his fussy self too much. Ill definitely make it warmer for him and add more plants. I traveling to Florida and going to a reptile show down there this week so hopefully i can get him some new things. Im gonna try out the house bulbs and monitor what ones...
Ill pick on up tomorrow for sure. Im using 60w now. Any recommendations on the watage? (PIC of what bulbs im using, just switched out uv one to a new one)
80 most of the time but i did notice it drops sometimes to 75. Im in ohio so the weather is bipolar and kinda messes with it. I did move his basking spot up closer to the lamp along with turn my heat on a little to help keep the temp. I think he needs a bigger cage and more leaves to hide...
Calcifer seems to always be dark and angry looking, i got him in December and thought it was maybe due to the new environment. He has no issues eating, in face he eats quite a bit (im not sure if over feeding is possible, i looked into it countless times and cant find a conclusion) i do feel he...
Thats very true. I want him to get around and be as stress free as possible so i think i will set up my horizontal branches and let him get used to me. I already love him so much i just hate seeing him stressed and want to do everything in my power to make him have a good home. Thank you guys so...
