I recently purchased 2 baby chameleons 1male,1female. They are about 3" long. I have them in an exoterra hanging cage. I have a 125watt exoterra Solar Glow. There are fake hanging plants along with a flexible vine. I water them 3 to 4 times a day. The temp is stays around 80 to 90 during the day and maybe around 65 to 70 at night. The female seems bigger than the male and changes colors more. The male seems somewhat timid and stays the same bright green. He will sometimes open his mouth for minutes at a time. Also the spines on his back seem yellow. They are fed about 20 crickets a day . The crickets are gut loaded with spinache, oranges, lemons, and potatoes. Is this a healthy regimen? Is the male just a runt or is he ill? If pictures are needs I can post them. Also I have a 30"x36"x72" cage I built for them. I'm just keeping them in the small cage so they don't get lost in the big one.
