I have been researching, and planning for a chameleon for about 4 years now. I recently moved to the Mediterranean island of Cyprus where they live in the wild- so I have decided there would be no better time to get one then now! I am extremely excited to care for my little guy. I just want to ask some questions.
My apartment is very well lit with natural light, well ventilated with a natural breeze, and the temperature on the island remains in their needed temperature range all year- with that being said-should I still get the secondary USV light that simulates sun, or can he live happily in a more natural environment? I still plan on providing a basking light unless suggested other wise.
I am not currently connected to a local vet as I am new to town, how often do you need to take a chameleon in for a check up? I hope to take it in after purchasing it because the only option here on the island is to purchase from a pet store rather than a local breeder.
I am looking forward to being to participate more in chameleon forums now that I will be an owner.
if you have any tips post away!
