@GrannyK @MissSkittles I can take this one if y’all aren’t already working on it? Yes

Awesome! Just wanted to make sure

Congrats on getting your cham! Three other things, as everyone has covered everything else: -The heat bulb (replace with a plain white incandescent light bulb) needs to be a minimum of 9”+ away from the basking branch, nothing closer (the plastic plant- needs to be replaced with a real veiled...

@Gloriawood awesome job! @noahrg4 make sure your calcium without D3 is also phosphorus free! That’s very important as feeders are high in phosphorus, so we use calcium to help balance that ratio. A couple more things are the two trusted uvb brands are Arcadia and Zoo Med. If possible, get the...

Welcome on here! You’ve got almost everything covered by these great keepers! The only thing I’ll add is that his uvb needs to be replaced with a different brand fixture and bulb, as ReptiZoo doesn’t have good bulbs or fixtures. If possible, get the Arcadia ProT5 uvb kit with the 6% Arcadia uvb...

Looks great, and I’m glad Leon loves his new uvb! Just remember to switch out his basking branch, too. Also, when putting the new vines in, don’t attach them to the ceiling of cage, just on the sides and onto/through other structures in the cage. Leon sounds like a handful 🤣, at least he’s cute!

@Charms

@jannb knows lots of rescues and where to get responsibility bred veileds, so hopefully she can help out! You can also check the chameleons for sale and the chameleon rehoming sections in the chameleons classified forum on here if you’re set on adopting. If you’re not comfortable with shipping...

You are correct, blue lights are not safe. I’d see if you can return it to buy another one that is safe when put on a timer

How far away is each bulb from his basking branch? I’d double check what you have in there with the veiled tested plants on the Chameleon Academy's plant list. Veiled are notorious for eating anything, so you want to make sure you’re only using plants that have been proven safe for veileds...

Welcome on here! I love your username, by the way! What species of chameleon do you have? Edit: never mind, saw it! I’ll go through what you have posted, just give me a sec

Will do! Didn’t see you had posted until I was almost done

Sadly reptile stores rarely know proper cham care and/or are looking for more sales. You can keep the bamboo structure in! Just fill it in with safe branches and vines instead of the bamboo you’re currently using as branches inside of it, and you’ll be good to go! If you do sand the bamboo for...

Sorry for beating you @Beman , I’ve been working on this for the last hour haha

Cage Info: • Cage Type - Describe your cage (Glass, Screen, Combo?) What are the dimensions? Screen cage dimensions: 18x18x36 This is fine for now, but as she grows, she’ll need a bigger cage. The minimum size for female panthers is either 2’x2’x4’ tall or 36”x18”x36” tall, but the recommended...

Hi there, and welcome! Like @GrannyK said, you are not an idiot! We all start somewhere and learn from there; as long as you want to give your cham their best life possible and are always willing to learn and improve, that’s what matters! There’s a decent amount of info coming below, and I know...

No problem at all, thank you being receptive to it! Definitely make an appointment. It’s good to know either way

You’re all good, no worries! That’s awesome of y’all, just be careful! And if there are no rescues there, and you decide to go with a breeder there, make sure they’re reputable first. Infections, parasites, and genetics that can cause fatal issues earlier in life are all options with rescues...

Unwrapping one or two sides should help. If it’s still in the mid/high 60s to the 70s in humidity, you can add a whole room dehumidifier to the room, just not near his He’s so handsome, by the way!! 😍 I’m no expert in poop, so I’ll tag some keepers who are, but I’d get a fresh fecal tested, it...
