Hi all!
I’m not new to chameleon ownership, I recently lost my 7 year old panther George who was my pride and joy which was horribly upsetting.
To take the sting away I am picking up a new baby Jackson’s on the 13th April - I’ve not kept a Jackson’s before so I wanted to reach out and see whether anyone could share any husbandry tips and advice with me, I’ve read that temps and humidity differ from the panther chams, what basking lamps and misting do you Jackson’s owners use?
I’ve attached photographs of my little guys juevenile setup, so far I had planned to install an exo terra mister, water dripper and 5.0 uvb strip bulb, I’m unsure what watt basking lamp to use?
I’ve also read that supplementing may be different for Jackson’s - I was dusting my panthers insects with calcium daily, with multi vits and calcium with d3 rotating every 2 weeks, would this be sufficient for a juvie Jackson’s or do I need to revise my plan?
Thanks in advance guys, can’t wait to get this one home!
