Any advice will help,
also i am like i said scheduling a herp vet and researching as much about chameleons as possible.
Chameleon Info:
Your Chameleon - Veiled Chameleon, Male, Not sure how old but i think it's shortly after he hatched because he is so small. (have had him for 3 weeks.)
Handling - Very little, only enough to get him used to me if i need to observe his body or clean his cage.
(don't wanna get bit but it'll happen eventually probably but so far no problems at all )
Feeding - Crickets, Hornworms, or Pheonix worms. 8-12 crickets a day, 5-7 hornworms a day, or 6-10 pheonix worms a day (depends on the week)
I am gut loading using the Flukers hi calcium cricket diet (the oatmeal substrate looking stuff, i was told its cheaper and healthier to use fruit and veggies is this true?)
Supplements - As for supplement its Calcium (without D3) 3 times a week Calcium (with D3) 2 times a week, a Multivitamin once a week, and one day a week with no supplements.
Watering - Misting 3 times a day, I see him drink almost instantly afterwards either from leaves or from his lip if he has a drop on himself. (I also have a waterfall but I use reptisafe both in it
and the mister and the water is changed every other day, somtimes everyday.)
Fecal Description - Fecal matter is moist and brown, Urate is moist and white. (Have'nt gone to a vet yet.)
History - N/A
Cage Info:
Cage Type - Screen. 16x16x29
Lighting - Reptisun UVB and a 60w day bulb Zoo Med. (12 hours of light and adjustable temperature spots. 12 hours of night.) 8AM-8PM etc.
Temperature - 90 F' basking spot, 75-85 at other parts of the cage, using home depot thermo's
Humidity - Humidity levels are anywhere from 50%-60%, maintaining through misting and waterfall.
Plants - Using live plants with fake, at the moment he is eating sunflowers.
Placement - Top of cage is about 6' from floor.
Location - Savannah, Georgia, USA
Current Problem - Very small larger nostril
