cham bullying...help needed

[mallia]

i have seperated them now and made an old snake viv into a new home

 

[camimom]

Im assuming that the first picture is when yuo first got them.
Housing them together at that age is not a problem, as they are still small.

I still have my veiled hatchlings together in 2-3 seperate cages.


But now that they are so much bigger, its time to seperate.

 

[mallia]

yes that was when they were about a month old...i will take some recent pics and post them so you can let me no what you think healthwise

 

[camimom]

Id be happy to help.

Just fil in the form, and we can make sure your husbandry is good as well.

Shes adorable, and looks good.

 

[mallia]

just starting to shed again....she looks very warm in the viv.iv just turned it down to 22 degrees...is that ok?

 

[camimom]

What is that in Farenheit?

 

[ChameleonMom]

22*C is only 71.6*F - and that is about 10 degree's too low for female babies. I would keep the temps at a constant 82*F or 28*C.

^^^ this.

Females should be around 82-84 deg F.

try about 81-83 and see how she does.

also use a digitial thermometer not a analog one, they dont work as well.

 

[mallia]

i have a digital one in there...and 80 was too high she didnt like it

 

[italian chameleon]

the vivarium should be at around 22° with a basking spot at about 30°
(all temps in celsius degrees)

 

[mallia]

thanks for your input mate...really appreciate it.
iv tried the basking spot at 25 but she still goes pale green and sits with her mouth open....maybe i need some more ventilation in the viv....i am thinking about changing the front for a mesh grill
