Well Chameleons have great reach and can climb the screen, theres only one part of the branch that sticks up higher. I'm trying different angles etc, I have a uvb meter reading in the 3's....
My next issue is the uvb reflector, he stares and claws right up to it, cant be good that close... i'm trying to position it so its not above anything branches so there's no access, might have to raise it above the screen
Hey Guys,
I really like these Govee Temp/Humidity monitors, but my cham keeps attacking them. I'm assuming he's seeing his reflection?
Anyone have any experience with this? I really want to use this device.
Thanks,
Ash
This can really be overwhelming for someone not prepared to see these responses, especially when someone saved a chameleon and is new to it, i'm wondering in some cases people may give up from the stress and pass them to an even worse place, or discard them completely? I know I found a veiled...
Ok good to know, others do that, must be instinctual... I don't believe he is a "wild" Chameleon, i'm in southern california, I believe he was a neighbors pet, or let loose. All other signs point to healthy
Hey Guys,
I noticed that when hand feeding my Veiled, i'll have a worm in the palm of my hand, but he keeps striking my fingertips, then i'll get closer and he'll connect to the center of my palm. When feeding from feeder dish, or hunting he is 100% accurate. This is a chameleon I found in my...
Update: He is eating like a champ, he mostly wears dark colors unless sleeping, hopefully he's just still acclimating to going from the yard to an enclosure...
Can anyone tell me are these white markings normal?
Also, are the feces normal looking?
Thanks again
I currently have my enclosure under a skylight in my house with 5.0 uvb and 75watt basking light, currently using a reptirain and hand misting occasionally, hoping the skylight is a good thing, its very warm under it. I'm getting rid of the fake plants as soon as I have all the real plants, i'm...
Hi All,
I'm looking for solutions to hang plants in a hybrid glass/mesh enclosure, mesh is on top and front panel, what is a good solution to hang plants on the sides which are glass? I like the magnetic magnaturals pot holders i've seen, however these seem to be in demand and sold out. Do...
I'm pretty separated from my neighbors, it's really incredible he ended up in my yard...I have about 12 hibiscus and a bunch of ficus out there, i've been interested in having a chameleon so this is real fun, just need to fatten him up. I wouldn't put it past many people out here to just...
Thanks for your reply, two of those pics were from a temporary enclosure, it was better than a cardboard box lol..... I'm using "Reptisoil" from zoomed in the current enclosure. I plan on removing the fake plants as soon as I can figure out what should go in. I have a 5.0 long uvb and a 75...
Hi All,
This is my first post here. On Friday my gardeners found an adult veiled chameleon in one of my hibiscus in my yard. I'm located in the san fernando valley, in north Los Angeles. The mornings can get quite cold here, upper 30's to mid 50's with the daytime temps around 70 degrees...
