Chameleon Info:
Your Chameleon - Male Veiled, about 5-6 months old about 10-11inches, nose to tip of tail (he wont stay still for a good measuring, so this is a total estimate).
Handling - once or twice a week
Feeding - Crickets, 6-8 every day. Mealworms, 1-2 every other day. Kale, freshly hung every other day. gutloaded with kale and hibiscus leaves/flowers that have been sprinkled with spirulina.
Supplements - dusted with calcium w/o D3 every meal. Calcium w d3 twice a month, multivit once a month.
Watering - Mister that mists about 15 seconds every hour, dripper that drips once every few seconds all day long. Hand misting as needed.
Fecal Description - normal poo, white urate.
History - captive bred from Lance, got him back in August and he's been perfectly fine since then.
Cage Info:
Cage Type - 18x24x48
Lighting - 1 regular housebulb for basking, 1 repliglo 5.0 for uvb (brand new, about 2 weeks old)
Temperature - 85 at the base of the basking bulb area, 72-74 at the very bottom, furthest from the basking bulb area. Using a regular non electronic thermometer.
Humidity - Been up and down, from a high of 70% to a low of 30%. Trying to regulate it. I just started using the heat in my house, so it's been interesting playing around with the humidity. I have a mister that sprays for about 15 seconds every hour, a dripper that drips about once every few seconds, all day long and I've resorted to leaving a damp sponge near the heat bulb to help bring some extra humidity. I have a non electronic hydrometer.
Placement - My cage was near my window, but with the cold days starting, he has been moved to the other side of my bedroom, in between two vents, which are about 8 feet away from him on each side.
Plants - all fake plants, although I am about to bring in my hibiscus bush for the winter and trandsfer it into his cage.
Location - Upstate NY, about 20 min south of Saratoga.
Current Problem - I've noticed two bumps on Kukui's side. I touch them and they don't seem to be sensitive. The one of his right side is almost smack dab in the middle. The one on his left side is a bit more forward. The other day, while outside, he did take a nasty little tumble from his hibiscus branch to the ground while trying to reach to the deck, about 4 feet. He did land on the grass and walked away like nothing happened, but that's when I noticed the bumps. I could only get a picture of one of the bumps. He squiggled too much to get a decent pic of both.
