I realize the cards aren't an exact measurement but if i hold it up in a normal lit room it doesn't turn purple but under the greenhouse glass it does. And even now at 7:30pm holding it up in the greenhouse it doesn't turn purple but when the suns out it does. I think some uvb passes through...
well i got one of those credit card uvb checkers that turn purple under uvb. As a test i checked the sun directly, yes it turned prurple. Then brought in the greenhouse and held near the roof glass [with a 40% shade cloth]. Purple again! Guess i won't need a uvb light.
For the summer i plan on taking him outside for uvb breaks. Not sure where i can put a light in GH as i can't even find him in the daytime. So far he stayes in one area when he sleeps. This could be a problem. Would love to hear from someone that keeps chams in a greenhouse.
Thanks guys i was thinking i should have put him in a cage for a few weeks but i was so excited when he arrived i just sprayed him with water and turned him loose. I almost didn't get him the first one they sent me was doa and i was afraid it would happen again.
Hello, i've had chameleons in the past but just got a new one. It's a Senegal from Backwater Reptiles had for 2 days. Reason i got a Senegal is i wanted a smaller sized chameleon. He's free ranging in a greenhouse but i also have anoles and a flying gecko and was afraid a Veiled or Panther would...
I was thinking of this while waiting for her to get forms, i was standing in front of the betta bowls and most of them looked terrible. Not moving some sitting on the bottom, some on top not paying attention to the ones right next to them. They seemed near death. Guess what, he's running around...
He seems to have make his home in a hanging basket pathos. I'll try to set up a feeding cup near that although he seems pretty adapt at picking them off the leaves.
Not really cham related so move if necessary. While buying some Crested Geco food i saw a little Anole for sale, cheap $6.99. So waiting 20 minutes for assistance the girl says do you have a cage for him? I said i have a Greenhouse for him to free-range in. She says i can't sell you the lizard...
Poor decision making on my part. I had a feeling i should have got both at the time but i was worried they might not get along or the female would be stressed. What's worse i don't know who the vendor was. There were no signs and i was going to ask the seller but it was very busy and i forgot...
Thanks for the info. UVB might be an issue. It's hard to get a light where he stays and not sure if he would seek it out. He's small and eating fruit fly's right now i'll have to read up on how to use supplements on them.
