Okay I hope I answer everything.
Flick is a male vieled. Not sure of the age but I've had him for 1 month now. I was told that he may be about 4-6 months based on his patterns.
I do not pick him up or anything. He really doesn't like it but has definitely been warming up to me. When my husband bought him he was told it was the most aggressive cham they'd ever see. He has never been aggressive towards me and will just chill in one spot even if my hand is close
I am feeding him crickets 2 times a day. I feed him however many he'll eat then take any extras I take out. For water I spray or mist the cage 2 times a day for 1 or 2 minutes and I run a dripper between sprays. I have seen him drink from the water and there is no sign of dehydration in his urate. When I see a fresh feces I will check again and let you know.
I lightly dust the crickets with calcium without d3 every other day and calcium with d3 every 2 weeks. He also gets the reptivite vitamins weekly
His cage is in my bedroom which is the warmest room and he sits in front of a window. His cage is also a screen but I am not sure the exact dimensions but I plant to find a bigger one anyway cause he's growing still
I have the lighting that comes with the kit and am looking for a uvb to replace it. His temps are measured 3 times a day with a I think probe thermometer I move around to different levels and spots in the cage. The very top right under the light gets to 80 and the ground to 70. Lights on at 10 am and off at 10 pm but he seems to go to bed sooner so I may change that. At night the temp is usually 75.
Not sure if I mentioned but the cage sits on my dresser and we live in northeast florida
