Yes I'm very happy about it, and so is he haha.
This wont stop me from making a vet call just to be sure that he is doing well.
Does anyone know if there is a time frame you should always check in with a vet?
Kirk ate today! Quite quickly after putting crickets in his tank. So I'm fairly certain it must have been the lights that were bothering him ><
Thanks so much for everyones input :)
So I've now updated his heating to a 100w ceramic and a new tropical UVB.
The ceramic has been turned off for the night and I've moved him to a room that should not drop below 60. He still seems very sleepy and I noticed that his skin colour is a bit off (maybe thats me?), I have attached a...
Ah alright, thank you for letting me know.
Both options are definitely doable. And my house sometimes gets quite cold, so I worry though the heat may be on, it may not be satisfactory.
Thanks again.
Thanks for the reply Kath44 & Carol5208,
I will most certainly purchase a new uvb straight away. As far as his basking light, is purchasing a blue one out of the question? If I take away his heat over night it will be far too cold for him.

And the wounds were treated by a vet and excused several months ago when I still worked at a pet shop, its been a while since then. He looks incredibly healthy, not malnourished or any skin discoloration, just very tired.
Ah I see. Well my answer remains the same. I've had him for as long as I've been taking care of him, so the majority of his lifespan excluding about two or so months. His UVB has always been the same.
:)
Thanks for the quick reply.
I have bought some calcium powder today, and hopefully with the use of it, that issue will be solved.
I've had him for as long as I have been taking care of him 7 or so months now, the UVB light has not changed since, it's working well as far as I can tell, unless...
Hello all, first inquiry here. Ive been using the forum for research purposes and it's been very helpful, so I have decided to make an account to join in the fun.
Unfortunately my scenario is not fun, I have a very sleepy veiled chameleon named Kirk.
