Crickets, super worms, silk worms What amount? 15 crickets a day, Super Worms 1-2 a day (but he leaves them and will not eat them), Silk Worms 1-2 a day (this is the only other feeder I have been able to get him to eat so far. What is the schedule? Feed every morning at 9:30 am How are you gut-loading your feeders? I am using cricket crack, fluckers orange pieces, and an ice cube that I made from celery, carrots, romaine lettuce, oranges, and tomato’s)

• Watering – I mist him 3 times daily and have a habba mist machine that sprays every hour for 30 seconds. Do you see your chameleon drinking? Yes he is drinking every day
• Fecal Description – Brown/ Black with white Has this chameleon ever been tested for parasites? No
• History – He shed just yesterday and I changed his cage around yesterday as well. Did not know he was going to shed.
Cage Info:
• Cage Type – 65 gallon basic Screen Reptarium 28” x 16.5” x 30”
• Lighting – Repti Glo UVB 5.0 18” & 2 Phillips 60 W plant lights. Light schedule 7am -7pm

• Placement - Where is your cage located? On the top of a filing cabinet in my office. Top is about 7 ft high .Is it near any fans, air vents, or high traffic areas? No high traffic and an air vent about 4 ft away but it does not affect the temp of reptarium
• Location – Northern California.
Current Problem – Today he went to sleep three hours before lights off at 7pm. WTF??? Is this from stress of shed and cage change? He is eating and drinking like a piggy.
