    Are these Burns bruises or fungus infection?!!

    I have a 17 month old male Nosy Faly Panther...he basks about 8” away & I used to have a 75 watt bulb but when I saw these black spots 2 weeks ago, I went down to a 60 watt bulb. Now a week later since the change, I haven’t noticed any difference so I’m now wondering if it’s a fungal infection...

    Fake vines hammocks & ladders are not good to use bc they host bacteria but why don’t real wood branches & sticks host as much bacteria?

    I have always used real sticks & branches from outside for my chameleon enclosures. I sanitize them, bake them for 30 minutes on 250 to get rid of bacteria & pests & have always read that fake vines, hammocks & climbing ladders are host for bacteria to grow so I never wanted to use them. But I’m...

    Does my Cham look healthy? And What is the white area on my chameleon?

    Hello, I’m starting to worry about my guy lately! Well, I’m always worrying about him! But this morning he didn’t want to eat anything! Not even a super worm! Then I come home from work and notice this white area on his arm?! Normally I would think he is about to shed (he usually doesn’t eat...

    Which one: T5 HO - 0.5 (6%) vs 10.0 (12%) for Veils

    So, I have been helping people on chameleon Facebook groups lately & I have been advising people to get a T5 HO linear UVB fixture & I mention the 0.5 (or 6%) strength bulb is ideal for panthers but also Veils too (I have a Panther but also like to learn about Veils just as much, since they are...

    Need feeder advice for my spoiled picking Cham that HATES crickets!

    I swear, my nosy Faly named Kahuna has picking & expensive taste! I love him to death but boy can he get my blood pressure going at feeding time...which is every morning since he is just about 6 months old. Basically he refuses to eat crickets!! He used to eat them the first month or so I got...

    So I’m very interested in adding bee pollen powder to my feeding routine! I checked out Amazon but thought it would be better to ask the experts where I should buy & what brand??

    Can anyone recommend some good online feeder insects companies? And anyone having trouble accessing Josh’s Frogs?

    So I got my male Nosy Faly Panther a month ago & I’m trying to get him on a well balanced diet with lots of variety. Obviously I’m mainly feeding him crickets but want to get him onto other staple feeders. He is not to into Dubia Roaches so I recently ordered Black Soldier fly larvae from Josh’s...

    Do need to install a new light bulb if I just tapped the fixture & the bulb went out?

    Hello, this is probably a stupid question but I was fiddling at the top of my enclosure & accidentally tapped (ever so lightly?) my Brand new T5 light fixture & the bulb went out! I have a spare but thought I would ask if anyone knows if it just needs time to cool down & will possibly work...

    Why is the picture on the package different then the fixture in the box?

    So, quick quesh...I’m new to the world of chams & just got my baby nosy Faly Panther 2 weeks ago! He’s doing great but I originally bought him an 18” Zilla Tropical Slimeline T8 light fixture but read that the T5 is better...plus my terrarium is 30” long so decided to upgrade & buy the 30”...

    Can horn worms get to big to give to a baby Panther?

    I’m new to the world of chameleons & just got my Nosy Faly Panther Chameleon a week ago today! He is doing great (I hope?) but I’ll tell ya, he is a lot of work! I already broke down & bought a Mist King today?! But my question is about feeding him Horn Worms...I bought a cup of them (about 4)...

    Need suggestions on a decent digital timer that can be programmed 1 hour on & 1 hour off several times through the night?

    So I’m just about to get my first Chameleon next week & I want his new home to run perfectly before he gets here! I bought 2 manual dial timers with additional pegs but apparently my snobby Shar-Pei Maui is getting all bent out of shape & nervous with the barely noticeable clicking that these...
