So a reptile shop near me has leaf insects and I haven't found these ever and I really want them. I have a few questions, what temp do I have to keep them? What's the best enclosure screen or mesh? I have bramble that I bought from a shop in 2018 that I bought from wilko and its grown huge...

So a reptile shop near me has a Jackson chemelon for £79.99 and a bohems 2 horned chemelon for £99.99. I'm gonna guess from these prices this place would not be good to get a chemelon. I know before I said I will get a veilied but I really like the Jackson chemelon. How many people on this site...

The main risks associated with UV-producing light bulbs are cellular damage to skin (sunburn and related effects) and eyes (photo-kerato conjunctivitis). Found this online about uv lighting is this true.

Apart from salmonella theres not a lot of other diseases a chemelon can give to a human or other pets right. Also with birds they cant pass any diseases to a chemelon right.

So after extensive reserch for like a month or so I have decided I will get a veilied chemelon. Just want you guys to see how much I know and what I need to know. Enclosure 2 feet by 2 feet by 4 feet, mesh. Lighting heating- a basking blub that bask at temperate of 32 for an adult I think like...

Do all chemelons require high humidity at night. I understand they Jacksons do and I presume that Panthers do as well cause it's the Madagascar and its gets foggy at night. What about veilied chemelons. The reason why I just want the humidity in the enclosure and not the whole room to increase...

Would this still not be effective airflow only cause it would a lot easier to keep the temp and humidity up an night. Sorry if I sound repetitive and annoying on this matter. Its just I see very few people in the uk using screen enclosures.

So you all know I was deciding between which chemelon I should get and I have decided to go for a veiled chemelon as they are a lot more available and easily found than Panthers or Jacksons. I am also aware they are a lot hardier than the 2 spieves so a better choice for me as I'm a beginner...

Can someone help me decide which spieces I should get I absolutely love the gorgeous colours of the panther but love the horns that Jacksons have. I'm leaning more towards a panther but really love both. Any advice would he much appreciated.

Could I keep a chemelon in the same room with 4 budgies and a ringneck parrot. The only reason I'm considering this is because that room stays the warmest in the entire house. The only issues I find with this is my ringneck screams throughout the day which may cause stress in the chemelon and I...

So as you all know I plan on getting a chemelon in 2 years or so and an doing reserch early. I have read that and received advice that chemelons require good airflow so need a screen enclosure or ensure with lots of ventilation. This makes total sense since they live high up in trees and get...

How common is it that chemelons make thier owners sick. I'm more concerned as one of my family members is on medications that suppresses thier immune system. However I'm gonna be the one to clean out the tank and have any interaction with the chemelon. And I do follow good handwashing procedures...

So recently I learned about the Jackson chemelon so cool. It looks like a triceratops omg. I've researched slightly into the care requirements and understand it needs a drop at night and this is something I can do in the UK because of how cold it can get at night and the humidity is something...

If I was going to keep my chemelon in the living room would I have to just turn his lights on and off for 12 hours or the whole room so it stays pitch black and no noise like tv or anything.

Are chemelons similar to birds in the fact that they should not be exposed to teflon fumes and perfumes and candles, I mean I dont use perfume or candles what about teflon.

If anyone had a list of all the things you need before buying a chemelon that would be great thanks.

So I understand that chemelons need supplements everyday with that being calcium without d3 calcium with d3 and multivitamins. How often would I give these as online there are different answers everywhere.

Is this forum free? Ok so about enclosures I like in the uk so keeping heat and humidity up would be impossible in a mesh enclosure and I understand glass isnt good for ventilation. So there are these wooden vivarium that have ventilation on the back and would be good to keep heat and humidity...
