Chameleon Info:
• Your Chameleon – Veiled, we thought that is was male but closer inspection possibly female? Now approx. 8 months old and been in my care for 5 months.
• Handling – daily, he/she loves to come out. Normally finding a happy spot on top of my head.
• Feeding – between 6-8 locust every day which are gut loaded with carrots/lettuce or other veg from the fridge.
• Supplements – Beaphar Reptile Minerals.
• Watering – We spray the tank twice a day. He will drink regularly from the side and sometimes directly from the spray. We also have a fogger which is used daily.
• Fecal Description – Black and white which has a tint of yellow.
Cage Info:
• Cage Type – Glass 2ft x 2ft. This is due to be replaced today with a 4ft x 4ft wooden viv with meshing.
• Lighting – 100w heat bulb. 38 cm florescent tube. These are on between 8am and 9pm
• Temperature – are temps are controlled by thermostat. The hot spot is 83 degrees. Overnight temp is set to 72.
• Humidity – humidity is between 50-60% controlled by spray and fogger.
• Plants – No but we do have plans to introduce them to the new Viv.
• Placement – the cage is (at present) waist height in the front room.
• Location – Lancashire, UK.
Current Problem – He/she is unable to walk correctly and laying on branches and/or floor. This seems to point towards either laying of eggs or most likely MBD. We were told that he/she was a male but after examination we have found no nobles near the feet and so suspect that he is infact a she. So maybe she is about to lay eggs as she was on the floor and a few days ago she seemed to be digging. However, she is having problems walking which I can’t seem to find if this is linked with egg laying. In the pictures she is on a sand filled container which is not normally there. We placed her in that to see if she started to dig with the view of rushing out to purchase adequate equipment.
