I have just gotten my baby veild cham two days ago. (Sneaky Peat) Was wondering how long to let him settle in befor cleaning his place? I had it all set up for 4 days befor getting him to make sure humidity was ok and heat, at night it was going down to 63, i have been using a night light that the store gave us is this ok?
 
welcome to the forums!!! loks like Laurie has oyu set up with some good info, but i just wanted to say hello :)
 
Hello, welcome to the forum :) If there is something specific to clean (like poop) then clean it out, we call this 'spot cleaning'
You should be able to do a little cleaning and watching of him while offering food and water without disturbing him too much, but usually it's best to let them settle in for a week before taking them out.
Night lights are not a good idea, they can disturb Chameleons sleep (even if it's the red ones) if you need additional night time heating it's much better to use a ceramic heat emitter. 60F is not too low for a Veiled though, I wouldn't bother heating above 60 myself...........
 
Thanks very very much for the info :) ! Will not use the night light, and thanks for the link to that site very helpfull. Glad i found Chameleon Forums! Have looked at alot of info before getting him. Alot says to do something and lots say not to! So thanks again for the info :)
