I've made some changes based on other cham owner's input. Please be honest, I'm tough. I just really want to make it perfect for my cham. My kids and husband think I'm obsessed!
heres some info.
Cage: 24x24x48 reptibreeze
UVB: Reptisun 5.0 linear, 18 inches, on a timer from 8 am to 8pm
Heat: 100 watt basking bulb. It is red because I was using it at night until I read that it can disrupt their sleep cycle. It is off at night but I figured it can still be used for heat in the day time, correct? Heat goes off at 8 pm and comes on at 8 am. The temp in my house never goes below 60 degrees. I'm having trouble with the heating setup. Her basking branch is 6 inches down from heat but it never goes past 78-80 degrees. should I get a 150 watt bulb or move her branch higher?
Cham: Camille, she is a 4-5 month old female veiled. She stays mostly lime green all day. She'll have some darker green patterns when basking.
Feeding: She eats 4-5 medium crickets in the morning. I dust with Calcium with D3 every other day. ordered Dubia roaches to replace crickets. Mealworms only on Sundays.
Misting: I will be setting up the monsoon later today. We mist when we notice humidity is starting to go below 50%. Need advice on how often to set time from automatic mister and how long to mist for each cycle.
Plants: Live Schefflera plant and a few fake ficus branches.
Substrate: None, just paper towels.
Please let me know if I forgot anything!
