So i've been trying to get my three month old panther chameleon to eat from the feeding cup but he takes no interest in it which is super frustrating because then i will try to give him some free roam food and then i never know if he actually eats, i haven't SEEN him eat in the past few days so...
Yeah I think my feeders are too big so I’ll give him a whole cup of little ones when I’m back home just so he can pick some out if he feels the need. Tomorrow I’m replacing his bulb and he’s been pretty active after basking
Ah ok so I’ll try to angle the uvb closer, they are right up against each other though so I think he should be getting uvb, but I’ll see what I can do. And I also already ordered a 60w basking bulb from flukers that’s fine though right?
Ok i'm gonna switch to a 60w basking bulb. Gonna head to the store today for that. I think he also gets uvb at that spot but i'm not sure. I redid his enclosure twice, once 3 days ago and once two days before that. He's been left alone since three days, i think the crickets i feed him might be a...
So you think it's most likely the bulb wattage then? He is basking for most of the day until around bed time he goes to find a sleeping spot. Does he look healthy? I just really need to ease my mind as almost every day i find something to panic about as i'm a first time cham owner so i want to...
I was just thinking that maybe i should reduce my bulb wattage. I used to have 100w and the breeder said its way too must and that i should go lower so i swapped with a 75w. Should i do 60w? Also do you think he would be closing his eyes while basking likely because he feels too hot?
Heres another picture of him, i misted him because i was worried maybe he was impacted but i saw him poop after a 50 sec misting, and i also saw him drink water before the poop, i tried to find the poop but couldnt as i have a lot of foliage at the bottom of his enclosure. So he is hydrated and...
Eyes are open the rest of the day, but i don't know how long he would keep them closed if he didn't notice me.. bulb colour is like a warm colour i don't use any red bulbs or anything. I believe the brand is flukers but i can't remember as i mixed up their packaging but its a 75w bulb for sure...
For the past two days, (i've had baby for 7 or 8 days) I would wake up and see him basking with his eyes closed, but when he sees im there he seems to open them for the rest of the day (i'm not sure exactly as recently i've been leaving the house for long periods). I'm extremely worried because...
