Chameleon Info: Name:Ezio
• Your Chameleon Newton Veilied..Male. Hatch Date June 9th 2011 got him on Aug 4th 2011
• Handling – I have not yet started handling him, I have attempted to give him time to adjust to his surroundings.
• Feeding – I feed him 2-3 crickets around 3-4 times a day. The crickets are gut loaded with Fluker’s orange cubes, calcium food, and water gel.
• Supplements – I have calcium with D3 that I plan on using twice a month, and herptivite twice a month.
• Watering – I use a mister every hour for about two minutes.
• Fecal Description – His poop has been Brown with varying between white and yellowish ends.
• History – His appetite tends to be a little unstable, some days he will eat 9-12 crickets a day and others I will be lucky if he eats 4. I normally feed him in a dish, but I noticed the days he normally doesn’t eat a lot if I let crickets lose he will chase and eat them.
Cage Info:
• Cage Type – Exo-Terra Glass 18x18x24
• Lighting –Repti glo 5.0 (26W) and a sun glow (25W) I keep my lights on from 8:30am-8:30pm
• Temperature – The top of the cages in the basking spot is normally around 85 and at the bottom its around 70. The temperatures do not drop but maybe 5 degrees at night. I have thermometers at the top (above basking spot) and bottom.
• Humidity – The humidity stays around 65-80 I have a hydrometer in the middle of the tank.
• Plants – I have attempted to feed him mustard greens but he hasn’t ate them yet.
• Placement – It is in the living room under a vent (high ceilings though) and it has been closed and there is a fan in the general area.
• Location – Tallahassee, Florida
Current Problem – Today he yellowed, He was fine this morning, but then around 2 he started changing colors. I don’t know if this matters but there was an electrical storm that hit around the same time. During this time he has remained very active, but has not ate but 3 crickets. What can cause him to turn yellow like this? What can I do to help him? Any help would be much appreciated. Thankyou
I have attached two pictures the first one is from about two weeks ago and the second one is from today.
