Treat and temps

[RachelLane95]

Can anyone recommend a good treat for a chameleon had to take my little man to the vets yesterday so he now hates me! Hes still eating and drinking fine so he cant be that stressed just in a mood with me so want to get him some yummy treats to show im not all that bad! Also I have his temps at 85f due to the hot weather in england do people think this needs to be raised a little, his colours are fairly dull and always have been since before i got him could this be due to temps? Thanks in advance!

Superworms are a good cheap treat. I like getting hornworms or mantids as well

Wax worms and butter worms.
They are like cheesecake for chams

Brilliant thanks! Need to grab him some more locusts tonight anyway so will find him some yummy worms!

any reptiles go nuts over hornworms usualy

 

[RachelLane95]

Okay thanks! Have never seen them before so will have to have a look around, the shop had no good worms even there wax worm pots had gone all mouldy so he will have to wait for now.

You said 85, is that under the heat bulb? Dull light colors is a sign of over heating

Yeah thats under the heat bulb the cool end is 76-78f
