you'll need lots of vines, plants, UV bulb, basking bulb, multivitamins, calcium powder, calcium with D3, crickets, cricket container, two thermometers, a hygrometer, misting bottle, cricket food, dome for basking bulb, hood for UV bulbs, paper towel, light timer, zipties, and suction cups...
Chameleons in general are not "friendly". Each has its own personality. One in ten may tolerate some handling but you have to think of them more like fish. Something to look at but not play with. If you're looking for something you can put on your shoulder and walk around with you may want a...
If this is your first Cham then I'd stay away from a Jackson. They are very difficult to keep. They have very low tolerances for inadequate husbandry. A veiled or a panther is your best first cham
That is likely a 10.0 uv since it states desert.

You need a 5.0 uv bulb. Never tried the all living things brand. Zoo med are good. Uv lamps are something you don't want to skimp on.

I'm sure my boy will like it when it's done. A big difference from the 18"x18"x24" that he's currently in. I just wish that he was moved in already. I hate waiting for mail, but on the little island that I live on I'm pretty limited to what I can get locally. Love to have more room, I'd have 6...
something like this would be perfect wouldn't it?

would one Arcadian T5 HO that be better than having two Exo Terra 5.0 CFL bulbs?
I'm guessing that this (http://www.lightyourreptiles.com/trblhot524qu.html) would be too much for a 24"X28"X48"...
So far the only plants I was able to come by (since there is about 3 feet of snow and the temps are -15 degree Celsius and all the nurseries are closed) is a half dozen air plants. In the spring I'm hoping to pick up a golden pothos and either an Umbrella plant or a Money tree.. The pots will...
Ok thanks a lot! I don't have any linear tube lights right yet, It will be something that I will be looking into getting by the time I have to replace the CFL UVB lights.. Hoping A CFL or halogen light will do the job until then.
I've been looking for a definitive answer for this for a while now. For live plants what kind of light do I need to promote growth?
In the Info on this board it states that the light needs to be 6500k, but is that it? will a cfl or LED light at that color be sufficient?
I currently have two...
It would help to know where you're located :P And I don't think I've ever seen house flies for sale around where I live or on any sites that I've bought crickets..
Thanks! I'm updating the "New Enclosure" thread with progress updates on the build. A lot of time has gone into it for sure. Can't wait till its done. Probably wont be finished until the second week of January though. Still waiting for supplies to arrive from all over the country.
