As said before (https://www.chameleonforums.com/what-kind-chameleon-do-you-think-i-have-78372/), you have a Graceful Chameleon (Chamaeleo gracilis). Anyone who has told you it may be a senegal knows absolutely nothing about identifying either of these species as you can not confuse the two with the photographs you provided. You'll probably get further on the right track with your chameleon the sooner this no longer becomes a question.


I'll also take this opportunity to once again comment that this is a good example of why there should be a forum for species identification with strictly enforced rules about replying with chameleon species IDs.

my chameleon info :)
speies: i think shes ether a graceful or Senegal I agree with Chris if he says its a graceful its a Graceful.
sex: female
age: not sure
how long i had it under my care : almost a week
handling: hardly at all im trying to let her get used to her home I only handle my chameleons when it cant be avoided. chameleons are a pet in the sense that you can hold them and pet them. So I could stick with not handling much even after shes use to you. IMHO
feed:ive been feeding her chrickets so far she at four scents i had her
but the otehr food ive been trying is milie worms,roman lettis.apples,straw berrysI have not seen or herd of chameleons eating strawberries or apples I would stop until you can confirm or deny this. IMHO Also as long as shes not very tiny I would try offering different feeders as well there are some worms like silk worms and horn worms that can be offered as a treat. as well as super worms and wax worms. depending on where you live there may also be dubia's as well that can be offered as a staple.
supplements:repti calcium does this have D3? aand top head chrickets feed what is the name on the bottles of the supplements you are using. you chameleon should be getting 3 different types of supplements
watering:ive usly put water in the dripper and mist the plants when the light frist
comes on and usly one or two more times that day? 2-3 times a day is fine for the dripper as long as it drips for a few mins each time.
fecal:my boyfriend think it was brown and white with clear stuff on the out side of it
looked kinda like bird poop and it happen twice so far scent we had hercould you take a picture of the fecal and post it?
history:she tends to get green or black or yellow spot when i try to feet or mist the cage Dark colors are usually a sign of stress. you also stated that shes only been in your care for a week. I would give her time to get use to you and her daily routine and she should stop doing that. just give her some time and don't give her a reason not to trust you and she will come around :D
i just moved her from the basment to the windowI hope shes not IN the window? she doesn't get a cool draft from the window does she?? of my bed room hoping that may help the nap
time in the day time and it is pretty quite there and dark at the night time and im hardly in my
room and any other animal expt i have two geckcos on a nother wall that i coverd the one side in
card bord so there no chance of her seeing them ,
cage: my change is a crate i would like to make a sreen one but right now i have a crate that came
with her the dimesions is 25 inchs high and 2oin long and foot wide or soI would suggest getting a screen enclosure ASAP she should not be housed in something that small. That could also explain her dark colors. You can buy a screen cage pretty cheap at most pet stores. I know there are sponsors that sell cages. or if your feeling crafty you could always build an enclosure. I just built a 5 cage enclosure for my chameleons that cost me around 500 for all the cages and they are more than bigg enough for them. I am sure you could build one for around 100.
light:eek:ne is a day light that uva and uvb not sure what what the brand is
but the one we have they both go on at the same time and when we turn them off one gose off 30mins later
on at 6am and go off at 8pm
temperature: is 80s during the day and 70s a night at the basking spot
humidity: im not really sure :/ I would recommend buying one asap a lot of problems can rise from not keeping track of the humidity
plants:eek:n the walls they are fake on the floor they are real and they are a money tree,banboo,
rubber plant and i thinka draucal plant.Not sure about the otheres but I know the money tree is toxic I would remove it IMHO Here is a link to a good plant safe list http://www.flchams.com/safe_plant_list.asp
placement: is was in my baskement at the bar but no it is place in my bed room with no air vents yes a fan but its not on
and no one is ever in my room expt me and im usly not even in it and now its four feet
