Congratulations! Mt. Kenyan jackson's are one of my favorites . You might want to put more foliage toward the middle/bottom of the enclosure, as they do like to go down a bit to sleep at night, but like to be hidden. Also, there is a chance your girl is gravid, so just be aware of that...

Congrats on your new cham and welcome to your new addiction ! As Melrito suggested a possible lower cooler perch.. Just in case your cham wants to take cover in a cooler area.

what do you mean by gravid? like shes prego? =\ and i tried to soft train the tree a bit to better its needs, should i provide even more foliage?

shes currently shedding right now, maybe thats why she looks 'gravid'?

 

[MrHarris]

Yeah kinda prego.. A female will lay eggs whether a male was involved or not. In that case you might want to read up on what she will need to do so. I suggest a small ficus (Home Depot has them for $15). My cham seems to love his.

As far as i know, yes.

aren't jacksons live bearers?

HA oh yeah. Scratch that.

Jacksons are live bearers. Not sure if your girl is or not (hard to tell from the pic), but from experience most WC Jacksons are gravid (pregnant). Just keep an eye on whether she starts to gain weight, it will become pretty obvious if she is.
