So ive recently changed the lightbulb form 75 watt halogen to 50 watt halogen bulb. The basking branch gives a temperature of around 78 but my cham will still gape. His body temperature is around 87 on the spine. Am i doing something wrong? He also sits in his basking spot for a long time..
Can you also rate my enclosure?
Basking temp: 80-84. Ambient temp 68-84
Humidity: average of 50%. I know it is a little high but i live in the Netherlands, aka shit loads of rain.
Food: crickets, dubias, silk worms ( as candy), small dragonfly's, locusts. All insects are gutloaded with either...
I changed the entire cage, he was in a smaller glass one first..( huge mistake on my part) room temperature is good around 20 degrees celsius. The white thing is my closet. Yes went to the vet 2 weeks ago en his poo is perfectly clean!
I've got a 2.5 month old veiled chameleon that is not himself lately. His colors seem to be really dull instead of the vibrant green he had as a little baby. I also noticed that he hasn't been moving that much. I'm a little concerned..
Cham Info:
Lights: 100 Watt basking bulb exo terra and T5...
I got my cham a new enclosure ( reptibreeze XL screen enclosure) but ever since i put him in there his colors seem to be less vibrant. At night he looks green and vibrant but never during the day. Humidity is around 50-60 all day. Basking temp between 80 - 85. Im just a little concerned.
