how long generally can a chameleon go without uvb before its harmful???im

[JacksJill]

I don’t think they are keeping them in the dark. They just aren’t supplying UVB. UVB is just one range of wavelength of light. It’s actually in the range that humans can’t see. Some Insects can see it and I don’t know about chameleons.

I feel like it would be cruel to keep an animal w/o lights I’m sure that would affect them behaviorally / mentally.

I don't think anyone would keep a chameleon without lights inside a house....however there are people who don't keep them with proper UVB light or even keep them without a UVB light in the house because they don't know the proper care for chameleons.

I would really hope not.

I keep my chameleons in complete darkness 24/7, mainly because they're such ugly animals, I don't want to have to see that.

The only light they see is the cattle prod when it’s time to take photos to win the monthly photo contest

Cattle prods make light?? We used to ride horses to round the cows up to take them to the barn and the trained dog "prodded" them along.
