decided to go ahead and try free ranging full time and see what happens.this will be day 3 for him and so far its been good. almost every free range cham ive heard of seems nicer and healthier so why the heck not try it.
i have a bunch of pictures, none of them are showing his colors really, and they arent that great but youll get the idea.
in his cage he would just wake up and then bask all day and pretty much just... move to the side on occasion..then go to bed. ive seen him all over this, he will chill in a spot for an hour and move, go bask.. climb here or there and chill.. go back.. its a lot more entertaining and he seems happier.
so on to the pics!
so this is more or less it, 6 ft silk ficus with vines weaved through the branches and secured to the walls. one of them is vertical to let him climb higher (which he is using quite a bit actually) and he can bask a little warmer. for the time being i have a 24 inch repisun 5.0 hanging over it, the basking lamp and out of the picture is a 5000k lamp hanging from the ceiling as well. ill probably move it closer but its a work in progress.
he is in this picture - on a vine lower right
this is how i found him when i woke up his first morning on it
most of them are obviously just him in different spots.. just thought it was cool seeing him explore something. he didnt really do much exploring in the cage.
thanks!
any friendly suggestions are welcome.
