I think she is doing great again! Thanks for all the help, @Sonny13 and @Beman, suggestions and information!!

Does the screen mesh interfere with the UV output? If I would place it in the cage would it need to be even more? I don't plan on doing so whatsoever, but I'm just curious. I think the card is great for showing that the lamp at least is emitting UV light! however I do agree that it is not the...

I would love to free range I really like the idea of providing more space! However, I think my cat would be most happy about it.... As for the phoenix worms, I don't know where I would be able to get them, and they don't have them at my local reptile store. Thanks you! I really enjoy her :)

she seems to be doing good! I checked the UVI level with the card. It seems to be between 5-6 on her basking/perching spot, which is the place where she can get the closest to the UV lamp. She still really likes to explore the room her enclosure is in, maybe she is just curious? Since its in...

So I have an interesting development: she just NEEDED to get out of her cage climbing straight onto my hand, I put her on one of my houseplants and immediately she changed to her ‘natural’ colours.... maybe she just doesn’t like her enclosure....

last night I moved both the UVB and basking light 4 inches up, and set up the fogger to be on for 5 minutes every 1,5 hours. A little update for today: she is keeping her eyes open and has been walking around happily all morning eating leaves and 5 non dusted crickets. She also seems to be a...

Ahhh check! Thank you for the clarification! I’ll get hands on pure calcium, untill then I won’t dust the feeders at all to prevent mineral overdose. Improve the gutloading with leafy greens and vary more in feeders, check the uvb output of my lamp, lower the basking temperature and raise the...

Is that the same as the repashy one you named earlier?

I will definitely trust you here on your judgement! I will get the repashy supercal noD and use that for the next 28 days! What vitamin supplement would you recommend to use after this ‘cleansing period’? As for the gutloading, I’ll add in the leafy greens. I think the size of feeders is good...

I’ll see if I can get hands on another thermometer. This one does however seem to match with the one I have in a different vivarium... I won’t feed it to her then, and stick to calcium only for now! thank you for the advice! for the size see the photo, taken when I put her in her new house 7...

hahaha yes they do!! I think (at least from what I’ve read) that she is a very friendly chameleon, from day 1 she would accept hand fed crickets andragogie from the pipette like a little baby lamand she never hissed at me! I was surprised to see how quickly you can bond with them :) For the...

Sorry! I missed that question! I think I read somewhere that giving water this way was a good way for her to get used to it, in case you would ever need it... Maybe I didn't formulate it right: I meant to say I sometimes give her water this way, just to make sure she does indeed drink...

I just ordered the tester! So I'll have more answers in that regard tomorrow! No that wasn't the spot she closes her eyes, she hasn't been up there the last 2 days at all. Would you recommend to move the UVB lamp so when she will she isn't as close? She just lays on her basking stick, 20cm below...

Thank you! It's good to know I got most of my care right! As for the UVB, I didn't test it, I just assumed it would work since it's from a reputable brand. I'll order the uv tester now and see if it's working! His branches are between 15-30cm away from the uvb. The schleffera (on the left side...

Hi everyone, Exactly one week ago I got my first chameleon! For the first 3 days everything was well, but then on day 4 she got very 'restless' when she started shedding, climbing the sides of her cages, and surprisingly me when feeding her! Since two days she has been this dark colour (as shown...
