What is an ideal daytime temperature? I've read 85-95, so should I shoot for 90 degrees? If I move the 150w to the front of the enclosure (away from the basking spot) it lingers around 85-90, but that is with the blue bulb still in. I think that my UVB is a linear bulb this is the one I have...
I will look around for it. And keep an eye out for more feces to make sure she is doing good.
You seem extremely knowledgeable, from the foot pics I posted, do you think s/he is a male or female? I've been reading about egg laying and am a little freaked out now.... :eek::unsure:
It gets to 85 degrees. Is that were it should be? I thought it was 85-95, so I thought 85 was like the low end of ok. And the cage at the pet store was like 105... You also asked where I got her, Petsmart. Probably not the best place, but none of the reptile stores around had any juveniles...
I see what you mean with the cardboard. I will look into plastic or something else. I may move her enclosure all together, but I don't know where else in my house to put her.
She is doing good with eating, I've watched her eat a few crickets and my husband has as well so I know she is getting...
Thank you for your reply! I have some sample calcium that came with the cage that I will use with her next feeding. I ordered all of the Repcal supplements and will start those as soon as they get here. The fogger has basically become a dripper because it just pools on top of the cage. Yes I...
Couple other things you asked about... Yes I mean tubular feces, but there is no white part, is that an issue?
And the cardboard isn't touching her enclosure and I take it down to spray. I'm more just using it to shield her a little.
So this isn't the tarsal spur?
Thank you for your response!
So "his" name is Tweek..... but if he is a she I might need to rename her. Tweek isn't pretty for a girl. I will read up on the egg box, that is not something I knew about.
We had just the 5.0 bulb and the blue daytime bulb and we couldn't get the temps above...
First time chameleon owner, we've had lizards in the past. Mostly curious if he is really male, if my enclosure looks sufficient, and if he looks like he is doing good. Thanks!!!
