I have around a year old vieled, his name is Rango. Can't hurt to ask for tips.
- Your Chameleon - Vieled chameleon, hes around a year old, I've had him for 8 months.
- Handling - whenever he comes out or has a stuck shed
- Feeding - super worms, hornworms, crickets, wax worms and calci worms. I feed him every 2-3 days. I dont gut load often, but when I do, its usually with kale and oranges.
- Supplements - I use a repti-cal multivitamin once or twice a month, it has no vitamin A. I use zoo-med for my calcium, I have calcium with d3 and without d3. I dust feeders with the d3 calcium twice a month, use the regular stuff for the rest of the feedings.
- Watering - I hand mist him once or twice a day for maybe like 10 minutes, and he has a dripper going on one of his favorite plants. I do see him drinking often.
- Fecal Description - urine is usually pale, rarely yellowish. His fecal isnt bad, just looks normal. Hes never been tested for parasites
- History - I got him from a pet store
- Cage Type - Enclosure is 2x2x5', idk the depth but my arm doesn't reach to the back fully extended. It's full wooden frame w screen on all sides.
- Lighting - I use Zoo-med reptisun 24" hood, the bulb is a 22", T5 HO 10.0. Idk the model. I dont know what kind of light fixture I have for heat, but it's from some reptile brand. I have a 75watt daylight bulb. His lights are on 12hrs a day, and off 12hrs at night.
- Temperature - At the top I think it's like 85°f, 90° at highest basking point. and the bottom is 65°-75°. At night, the lowest the temp drops is 55.
- Humidity - 30-50% during the day, and 80+ at night. I use a fogger at night, sometimes it the morning. I use the misting and such during the day to help w humidity. I have a humidity gauge
- Plants - golden pothos and corn plants.
- Placement - his cage is next to my bedroom door. Theres no fans or vents near him. His enclosure is just on the floor but we're building him a desk thing.
- Location - Tennessee, so like, central southeastern.
