UVB is a tricky area. When we give the 6% advice it is because we know through testing by bill strand the "safe zone of 6 and basking of 3. He himself states this is a guide line and not a final word. It works but that is not to say they can't handle higher. I think this is the key point. He...

Yes as @Green Dino said. 6 to 9 months. With control temp probably 6

Yes, These are from when the male found his way to the female lol. I hope tiny ones are duds kind of. I am trying to stay as close to twenty as possible.

These are both misunderstood. Pesticides kill fast. There is no use in a pesticide that allows a insect to continue eating for days. So don't feed dead bugs, also consider where we live. Don't count on micro data. It is accurate but you are missing that it is trace amounts like all the other...

I have been keeping my female on a schedule of about 3 small dubia nymph ( 3lg cricket) sized meals three times a week, with max basking at 80f ambient max of 74f for over a year now. She is about 2 1/2 to 3 years old. Her first clutches were in the 50s+ and were becoming regular at about 3...

As @Beman said their seems to be a connection. Also if you look at the dark spots it is all where her eggs would be. It does sound like you have things set up well, but things can still go wrong even in the best care. I would have to assume like any female that gives birth, there are risks. It...

In the first pics she looks gravid. Did she have a lay bin? My guess would be that this could be a case of egg bound. The blood would be from essentially a rupture from not being able to pass the eggs. I would suggest filling out the how to ask for help form for your other cham as there seem...

The risk of salmonella from a claw is real. I don't know enough about it. I always wondered, we know turtles and aquatics. A cham would seem less likely but if it stepped in poop on a branch that would give it a pathway, even if it wasn't open very long as it would die drying out. But The...

Unless you happen to be allergic, I don’t think so. I have been bit or scratched by more animals than I can think of and never had a problem. But cat scratch fever is a real thing so maybe

So this is my experience. I feed dubia nymphs but the equivalent of about 4 crickets. More importantly I keep my temps cooler 74 ambient and 80 max basking. I went to this over a year ago. and no clutches till It got a bit warmer and I added about 3 feeders per week. She is about to lay an I...

So first relax. I hate to admit it but I have had more than my share of escapes. They will eventually head up and toward light. Try to think like a chameleon. If she gets off the cage where is the next thing to climb. This is often first before they head for their main destination. She...

Here you go https://www.chameleonforums.com/threads/how-to-ask-for-help.66/ This will make it easier for us to get a full picture.

Feed smaller amounts more often. This way he will catch more before they escape.

All of mine hate the camera with a passion. I don’t know what it is.

I think they are also the ones that take chunks out of sheep when they sleep.

Not exactly. At night you want the temp to go below 65 is best. what you want is the ambient temp low 70s you will run a heat lamp for one hour in the morning and one hour in the afternoon/evening. That basking you want 80f. If it is available too long they can over due it so we limit time...

As far as the UV lights. They are ok if set up right, but at best can only pernitrate 6 inches. So basically they become obsolete very quickly. On temp. Don't cook your cham. My babies did not see 78 till they were 5 months old with ambient in low 70. BUT why was your question. If we look at...

So I was listening to crickets outside, then I realized it was only my house 🤭🤣

I think @kinyonga is curious on age. he is tiny, but 2 1/2 months looks about right.

I am no plant specialist, so I can't say what is. Just a couple I know
