So I recently got my first chameleon ,a female that I am not sure exactly her age.This isn't my first reptile ,although it is my first chameleon.Here's a picture of her and her setup http://imgur.com/a/gJ9MP Shes in a medium reptibrezee for the time being,although soon she'll get a large or xl.I have a 5.0 compact (I know people don't like these but it's all I could find for the time being) and a 100 watt daylight blue bulb.I tried a 60 watt bulb but the temperature at the highest vine was only 77,so i changed to a 100 watt and still only get 85.Is this okay ?Also how do I tell how old she is ,and when she would be laying eggs ?I made a lay box and covered up her cage but she hasn't touched it.Whenever i enter the room she guns it for the lower part of the cage so for now I have been leaving her alone as much as I can.She's eating gut loaded crickets with all the correct supplements (again,not my first rodeo in that regard).She also has a dripper and gets occasional misting.Any specific info about the egg laying,and general criticism of my setup would be appreciated,thanks!
