I guess not if you are familiar with taking care of babies.

 

[davieb769]

ive had him for a of couple weeks now and he seems to be pretty healthy, eats like crazy and everything else looks normal

 

[jannb]

Is this your first chameleon?

 

[davieb769]

yes but ive made sure to do as much research as possible before i got him. when i said and everything else looks fine i meant his eyes arent sunken in at all, he seems decently plump enough givin that he eats about 30 pinheads a day hah. his fecal also looks healthy with a white looking spermplug. i keep his humidity at 80% whenever i can, but it does drop down to around 60. hes got a 50w basking light that is about 10-12 in away to prevent any burns and of course a 15w uvb strip that runs across the top of the tank
