So im planing to cage my chams in the garden. My concern is that they will be espose to natural sun. Does this mean i have to change my suplementations? I know i dont have to use calcium whith d3 anymore IMO. But can i still use plain calcium every day and continue to use the vitamines twice a month. Also i was planing on changing to repashy calcium plus. Can i used outdoor?

sorry for the bad english :eek:

This is the veiled cage it has to be raised 4 feet of the ground.

my chams are kept outdoor most of the time if weather permits and I do not supplement with d3 at all. I don't know if the Repashy contains d3, but if it does, then I am not sure that it would be a good supplement to use for chameleons who live outdoors especially if it is used daily or every other day.
 
Another question if its raining Should i let then outside or should i take them inside? IMO outside so that they can drink water naturaly and put a towel so they have a dry spot
 
If it is storming, I like to bring mine inside. If it is a light rain, I don't think they mind it. I mean, after all, they live in the rain forest! But then again, they have a vast area to hide from the rain when in nature. I think as long as you have a place for them to not get wet if they choose not to, then it will be fine.
 
thanks. About multivitamins i use hepertivite should i Used twice a month or should i changed? and the plain calcium can i used every day? or i have to cut the calcium a bit
 
I feed my guys every other day so I dust every other day. I would still use the multi and dust with the plain calcium like you have been doing. The only thing that wont be necessary is the d3 cause they will be getting that from the sun. Chameleons cannot overdose on natural d3 but they can on the artificial d3 we give them in supplements.
