I believe it is a 5.0. and How would I lower the temps? and when i first got him i did a whole lot of research and i was under the impression that the 50's were a good range for a veiled chameleon. if the humidity is low what should it be?

Feeding –...
Thanks for your Prayers! No MBD here. (Yaaayyy) The Vet said that what happened when he originally hurt that foot was that some how he fractured it. But instead of calcium building up calcium in that spot Bart's body broke it down. I saw the X-Ray and the bones were not as dense as they should...
For all of you who have been helping me with Bart! Which I still need to check the thread(sorry if you commented and I haven't gotten to you) I just left the Vet's office without Bart :/ he's going to x-ray him to look at bone density or something like that and he feels that his "sprained" leg...
I don't understand how he keeps getting these strange illnesses! I try so hard to provide the best care I can to him and I fear that I'm just not a good enough chameleon owner:( I don't know what I could possibly be doing wrong. I give him calcium everyday, his temps are correct, humidity is...
He's had issues with this leg before he "sprained" his ankle joint.(months ago) today I noticed he was putting weight on it but it doesn't support his body. So everytime he takes a step with that foot his bottom drops. He doesn't have mbd he was just checked for it maybe a week or two ago. Also...
I have had my veiled chameleon since October 16, 2012. Then his body was about 1.5 inches minus tail if that. now I want to say he is 6 inches long minus the tail. Is this a good size? I do not know how old he was when i got him but I keep seeing pictures of other peoples chams and they all seem...
I got lucky haha if you ask me what I used I couldn't even tell you. Twenty year old women like me weren't created to build enclosures likethis one hahaha
The inside of the enclosure is 21inx21inx38.5in the green part is actually a trim I put over the hardware cloth so it's on the outside. It has a blue frame and the hardware cloth is on the outside of that
I'm not a good builder. Haha I get stressed out in hardware stores so I do anything but do something where I'd need to be in there. Anyway I built this cage by myself. It doesn't look very good but I wanted to see what y'all think! I in the process of adding more vines and things and I only...
Bart has a bad habit of pooping in his feeding cup thing after he is through eating. it's like he is saying "alright i'm through get it out of my way" he does this almost everyday if I am running out of time to take him out and feed him.
his eye is doing much much better! He's still not closing it all the way though:( i might take him back to the vet to be sure there is no damage to his outer lid. He did shed Saturday-Sunday; I am not sure that means anything.
Thank you guys for your help. We have a vet in town who specializes in primates and reptiles! After using the solution I realized that his inner eyelid was swelling and I didn't want him to loose the eye or worse fall ill. I took him to the vet they couldn't find any more debris but his eye is...
