Thank you for the advice; I've been told she's six months and pretty big already. At what age should I start doing this? Right away? Also, I have arcadia EarthPro-A (the one without D3), RevitaliseD3 (with D3), and bee pollen for sups along with the proper uvb.
Hi everyone, I'm adopting a six-month-old sambava female panther, and I wondered if the good people of the Chameleon forum could give me some advice. She has everything she needs setup wise. I'm more concerned with notable differences in care from, say, Jackson's chameleon care. This is my first...
I've had him for a week. Still very shy, but he's settling in nicely.
PS: Is it normal for him to have urates stuck to his butt. I want to wipe it off, but I don't want to freak him out.
I was sent photos of the parents; the pair are unrelated. The male is 4/5 years, and the female is 3 years old import from a breeder; she was originally captive farm-bred.
Thank you for the advice; the extra time switch is a great idea. It would give me more control. I also couldn't agree more on, observe, anticipate and adapt. It's a good motto I like it :)
I've been in contact with a jackson's breeder near me. If all goes well, I will be the proud owner of a...
I appreciate the input. I'm sure there will be days where I don't need the basking bulb but better safe than sorry. It's why I bought a dimming switch.
Hello
Upgrading down the road isn't an issue. I enjoy building bio-active terrariums. Who knows, I might try replicating Sonny13's build.
I invested in a dimming switch for my basking bulb (set
80-85°F /26-29°C ) and a MistKing. This there anything I'm missing?
I did some research, and I've pieced it together. The Yellow-Crested Jackson's Chameleon (Trioceros jacksonii xantholophus) are more common and get much larger than the other two subspecies (Machakos Hills and Dwarf Jackson's Chameleon).
Yellow-crested exceeds 16" while the other too only...
See that would make a lot more sense. So Yellow-crested Jackson's Chameleons get to 12-18 inches, and Dwarf Jackson's Chameleon are the ones that stay under 12inches?
Hello,
Very impressive; you have given me inspiration for my next project.
This is what confuses me. Jackson's half the size of veiled chameleons, and yet they have the same minimum size enclosure requirements? But female panther chameleons are slightly larger than Jackson's, but can go an 18...
Yeah, it's going to have to be a Jackson's chameleon with the size enclosure I have or a CB carpet chameleon, if I can find one (not likely, lol). With my setup being a bioactive glass terrarium and UK climate, I'll be able to achieve the needed high humidity and nighttime temp drop.
I'm...
