Only the front is glass. The top is mesh, the sides are dark colored PVC. Soil - I'm planning to cover all the soil with weed cloth, then large river rocks. So that the bioactive portion keeps doing it's job, so that all the moisture produced from her misting system and dripper are being...

I will have to reply to this once I get home tonight, I'm about to run out the door with the kids. Sylara is at the clinic now, she's in good hands with my team for the day. Once I'm home I'll be able to reply properly. Again, thank you all so much for helping me help Sylara. I've only had...

Thank you, I'm ordering the correct one now. Looks like she's still losing weight. Weighed her last night and she's down to 4.77 grams. She's still just not eating enough to gain. :/ Going to pop into work here in a minute to talk to my vet and see what she says, she's probably going to...

Absolutely can do! She just seems hungry for the uv, though. She's always as close to it as she can possibly can get, turning one side of her body dark and facing the dark side to it. But adjusting the height is something I can do in just a few minutes. Will I still need a different bulb if the...

This is the one I've got: https://a.co/d/iVJGmVW My substrate isn't not bio active either lol. It's got springtails and isopods, some buried wood material and mulched oak leaves mixed in.

Well, I changed a lot about her branch landscape, added a lot more slopes to and from basking spots, added an automatic misting system, and suspended a feeding cup right next to (but not directly in) her main basking spot. I - think- she ate a few bugs yesterday, but I only saw her eat one...

Thank you for your thoughtful reply! She came with the name Peter, but that didn't much suit her. I've named her Sylara.

Fecal results came back today, no parasites. I try not to weigh her more than twice a week, she's so small and had been bounced ask over between the store and our clinic that I just want her to relax and feel secure. I'll weigh her next tomorrow after I get home from work to see where she's at...

Thank you so much for the reply! I'll try to get all this answered. I am not a vet, I'm a veterinary assistant. I've only been working in the field for a bit over a year, and am currently in college to be a CVT. So I am a bit at the mercy of what my vet thinks is best - like with soaking...

Thank you for your advice! I'll get my hands on those supplements if the consensus is that they're better. This little girl had a rough start, but life is only going to be looking up from here if I can help it. I didn't know that about collected sticks - I thought they had to be baked before...

I can't copy/ paste from my phone, so I'll add all the info I can think of. I am very open to critique, as I haven't had a chameleon in a few years. Due to my work in the veterinary field, I had a pet store surrender a chameleon to me as the store policies on husbandry were causing rapid health...
