I dont know to much about chameleon hearing but I can tell you that once asleep my cham has never woke up due to music or movie being to lound. He has slept with a whole party going on next to him. You want to keep noise levels down for sure but thought I'd add what little I know about hearing.
I wondered same thing
I have heard of people letting house geckos loose to hunt down escaped bugs, but I always wanted to put one in my chams cage. Today as I cleaned the animal cages I let my male veiled and my whites tree frog check each other out. The cham didnt pay too much attention but...
My name is Jacob Schenden and I have an adult male veiled chameleon that I am looking to give to a new home. I am a college student and find it hard to devote the amount of time needed for him. That being said I have raised him successfully since a few months to his current age of 2 years. I...
halogen
I use a halogen, they are very powerful lights and have to be used carefully. They give off lots of heat and also last ALOT longer then standard heat bulbs.
what is it?
To me it looks like the carpet chameleon, which I think might be called Rudis?? Anyways if it is one congrats because I think they are the most beautiful and complex looking cham out there.
I have the same issue. I live in the north and its alot hotter now. What used to read 75 in the shade is more like 85-89. I noticed him towards the bottom and dark colored so I turned off the heat light. To me the uvb doesnt seem like enough though. I guess I'm going to try the lowest...
dusting
The dusting thing makes sense. My little guy used to get the salt deposits all the time (I was dusting too much). Now I have an appropriate dusting schedule and I haven't see this anymore.
very cool
That is awsome. You have everything he needs in the trees, maybe I should do this instead of building a new cage when my guy gets bigger. Very cool, just wondering what trees those are. I have been looking to find indoor types of trees but the big greenhouse up here didn't have...
Buddah is growing and I plan on buying/building a new cage for his adulthood. I've been looking for large plants like ficus but the greenhouse by me doesnt have anything like that. What I'm wondering is where can I buy these plants. I know ebay has them but I checked the other day and there...
His heat light is on half the cage with his UVB covering the other half. There is plenty of temp gradient for him and plenty of places he can go to get more heat or less heat. His mouth isnt open all the time, but he just never did this before and I want to make sure that its ok. He seems...
Buddah is now a little over 5 months old, I recently changed out his heat light for a daylight heat bulb and now only have heat on for 12hours so I have lower temps at night. Anyways recently I see him with an open mouth and I'm not sure if I should be worried. I have heard people talking...
