Lighting/UVB schedule question.

[SomeRandomPerson]

Hi guys do I have to have EXACT 12 hours for my lighting schedule or can I just turn them off when the sun goes down?

12 hours is a guide, not a rule. yet you do want at least 12 hours or more in the summer months, while 11 or 10 durring the dead of winter.

The best way is look at the place where your chameleon comes from, and try to match the seasons you provide to that place.

If you have a veiled, you'd try to mimic the climate for each season in Yemen and Saudi Arabia. For a Panther you'd do the same but for Madagascar, and so on.
