Hi all, It’s been a while since I’ve posted, but things have been going mostly well with Booger, but I’m concerned about his coloration and I’m not sure why he appears so dull/dark a majority of the time. As a babe, he was pretty bright with almost candy-striped eyes. Over the last several...

So I got the dimmer you recommended and it was pretty finicky to set the temp range I want. I’m also not sure how well it’s working, so here’s another 75 degree day where we have the heat on in the house to keep the temps where they need to be.. What basking bulb do you use?

I have a handful of sensors in the enclosure, so it would be no problem to move the placement of either of them to be near the probe.

Thanks, I'll check this light out and appreciate the link! I didn't realize the enclosure could cool that much at night. The 61-66 range I'm assuming would be 61 at the bottom at lowest and 66 at the top?

Hi all, I’m wondering if anyone has feedback and suggestions on heating. I have a panther cham (Booger) who is just over a year old, in a screened enclosure. During the winter when we’ve had him, the room we’ve kept him in was pretty easily modulated and there wasn’t too much ambient temp...

Thanks for this resource, I’ll check them out the next time I get some bugs!

Where would I get bsfl? I bought some crickets and hornworms from Great Lakes Hornworms because I saw that people liked that company on this forum and they should be here today. They only had a few feeder options to choose from though and I didn't see bsfl on their website. I should be getting...

I think I took the photo of the enclosure before all three sensors were installed, I'll post another photo to show you, but I have one sensor that just sits on top of the mesh enclosure. The one visible in the photo hangs down a few inches, so that's my mid-temp. Then I have one in the back on...

Yes, I saw somewhere in another forum, that someone got smooth river rocks to cover the soil in their plants, then they used mesh to prevent their chameleon from accidentally swallowing a rock as a safety feature. I want to have some real plants in his enclosure, but I also want him to be...

A couple questions: What is bsfl? I have three sensors in my enclosure right now, what is considered the basking area? I got the new feeding powder, but I’m still waiting on repashy you recommended. The container says to feed him 12 crickets a week that are dusted in the powder, but also how it...

Here’s a photo of the enclosure. I sent back the other temp/humidity sensors, the ones you recommended seem to be doing the trick.!

He was eating some of the dirt in the plants I had in there, so I took those out until the mesh I ordered gets delivered. I should have that on wednesday this week, then I plan on putting them back in. Thanks for the heads up on the fake plants. He hasn’t really paid much attention to the fake...

Thank you so much for this list— I’ll make some calls and see what I can find!

Here’s a few photos of the little guy!

Thank you so much! I just purchased the supplements, so that’ll be adjusted in the next couple days and I’ll start working on the watering schedule this weekend and get back to this thread with updates. How do I get him tested for parasites? Does anyone know of any reptile vets in the Boston...

Hi All, I just got a panther chameleon for the first time from a reptile expo, he’s about 9 months old. I’ve had him for a couple of weeks and so far I’ve run into a couple of issues that I’m learning about and resolving as I go.. I live in New England and I feel like I’m having a lot of...
