Nautrual Sunlight

Quick question... if i expose my chameleon to natural sunlight more regularly does he need more or less of certain vitamins or the same schedule?

Same sched. They are supplements not primaries, in a perfect world they dont need them, but we never what they are lacking. The only change would be chams kept outdoors most of the time would not need the D3, however keeping the D3 in is also not going to harm the chameleon.

Yeah definitely keep the vitamins and calcium coming. Adding natural sunlight will only make your chameleon healthier and happier, so add plenty of it when possible!

This spring I had a cham who wasn't gripping with her back legs while resting. Possibly the start of MBD? Anyway, after a few days outdoors and she's acting normal. Amazing how much better indirect sunlight is than direct UVB bulbs.

Unfortunately I put Harry out for an hour or so on Saturday and Sunday, rest is just uvb light...don’t know what I’ll try this winter, he’d be frozen solid here in NC...I guess every bit helps though
