I've heard a lot of talk about compact fluorescent light bulbs causing health issues. What kind of health issues have been confirmed due to the use of CFLs? Also, glass, plastic, and even mesh screen blocks out the beneficial UVB/A rays. It says on the box of Zoo Med tube fluorescent bulbs that...

I just got this female Southern Peacock Cham from LLL Reptile yesterday. The three they had left were all in pretty bad shape. I thought this female might be gravid so I picked her up. She also was in the best condition out of the bunch. I was wondering if someone knowledgeable on this species...

I will keep you posted with lots and lots of pics! And I'll keep you in mind if this come to fruition :)

Thanks suzi! I'm assuming she is fertile because she was a WC. In that case, I may have little peacocks in the coming months :)

Also, this species is known to produce very small clutches. So I'm guessing it would be difficult to tell. Here is a link to the article by Chris Anderson, there is a picture of a gravid female: http://www.chameleonnews.com/05OctAndersonWiedersheimi.html

I have been researching this species heavily, although not much is out there. I know Chris Anderson...

This thread is amazing! Major kudos to your efforts and progress!

Thank you! I did mean foliage when I said substrate, I will make the proper adjustments. I'll also look into the proper supplements. I appreciate the advice :)

Thanks for the input everyone! I'll make those adjustments and update you all with some pictures soon. As far as lighting goes, She does have a UVB light and heat light. I also dust her crickets with Flunker's calcium with D3. I know the enclosure looks pretty bare, but she is smaller than my...

Although this is my first post, I've been reading through this forum since I got my baby veiled, about 2 weeks ago. It has been so nice to see how helpful and friendly everyone is on this site! I am a first time chameleon owner, but I think I have a pretty good handle on things thanks to this...
