Hello everyone,
1. I hope this is an okay thread for this post.
2. is 1 of those bulbs listed in the title enough for an adult male Panther Chameleon in a 4x2x2 mesh cage?
3. How often do you people replace these? Petstore says 1 year, I've heard 6 months.
4. I heard Exo Terra is going to...
I am only a year into chameleon owning and the biggest things I learned here was the lighting (5.0 UVB T5HO, warning of burns from heat lamps), supplements to avoid MBD (calcium, d3 etc), and hydration (live plants, hand pump sprayers, automatic misters, drippers).
The hardest was controlling...
Fairly junk quality but it isn't something that is touched too often, just fill with water so it lasts fine. Like everyone else says, minerals build up quite easily and is hard to clean because you don't want to use chemicals etc to clean a mister for a reptile. Additionally, make sure to dry it...
Glad to see positive reactions to this. Many people on youtube are insulting the act saying its actually upsetting ecosystems. I shared this article with them: "Reintroduction of Tasmanian devils to mainland Australia can restore top-down control in ecosystems where dingoes have been extirpated"

Update:
I have a Yucca plant, mimosa, spider plant. I found lists saying those were safe. What about an olive tree? someone on reddit said it was poisonous to them is that true?

Unknown panther variety, most likely male (WILL POST PICS: I just want to leave him alone for a day or two and not try to bug him with pictures as he was just bought on October...
Hey Everyone I will try and post some pictures tonight! I just received him from the breeder last night and he seems very nervous (dark grey colour and not moving around) so I don't want to bother him too much but I will try and get one picture.
Hi,
I just got a young panther chameleon (4 months old - most likely male) and want to clarify 2 things that seem to differ based on the writer of the posts.
1. Water: I have a reptile fogger I spray into the cage and live plants inside the cage. Is that enough water for him and how...
