- Brookesia Stumpffi, 1 male & 1 female, ~<1 yr, 3 months
- In three months I think I've handled them on 2 occasions including today
- Hydei fruit fluies, and banded crickets, ~ 10 crickets or 20+ fruit flies. Every other day, Mainly carrots and broccoli
- ZooMed Repti Calcium Without D3, Exo terra Calcium + d3, Exo Terra multi vitamin, Repashy vitamin A plus. Calcium without d3 every feeding except for every 2 weeks I give vitamin A + Calcium w/d3+ multi vitamin
- I use an automatic humidifier that is triggered by the enclosures humidity. I change the water and change the wick of the humidifier everyday. As well as manually misting until there are water droplets everywhere in the enclosure once a day. I use dechlorinated water. I have only seen them drink once.
- Urates were white and clumped together but become powdery when crushed. The rest of the droppings looked dark brown, dense and slightly damp and looked like it was made of bugs in the way it came apart when crushed
- 12x12x18 exo terra (glass enclosure with screen top).
- exo terra 26 watt uvb bulb (Still in the first 6 months of use)
- 20-24 C during the day, 18- 20 at night measured using a hygrometer that gives reports to an app on my phone.
- 60-70% during the day, 70-80% at night using a humidifier.
- pothos, ficus elastica, fatsia japonica
- In indirect light, about 5 feat from a window but there is no direct line of sight from inside the cage to the window, there is nothing else of note. The enclosure is about 3 feet from the floor
- Canada
Recently they are not very active and their eyes are closed during the day for a couple of days. I'm going to call the vet tomorrow and get an appointment. But if you guys could possibly give any insight, it would be greatly appreciated. Going to call the vet first thing in the morning tomorrow.
attached are some photos of the enclosure and the male and female
Should probably mention the whiteness on them are because I have extremely hard water, not sure if this would be an issue
