So I found out about CF while doing research for my Jacksons. There is a lot of info and friendly people on here helping each other out.
I've had Veiled chameleons in the past when I younger and sadly sold them when I joined the army. Fast forward 6 years and I found myself looking for a Jacksons this time around. With the space and time available to take care of them. I found a professional breeder that lived an hour away. So i got pair of Jacksons 1 male 1 female.
The male is just turning 4 months old while the female is a little over 5 months.
the female looks about double is size and will run around the cage for food , while he is a little more lazy.
I feed them 1/4-1/2" crickets
Small meal worms ( she never eats them but he loves them)
Yes I gut load them and dust about once every 3 weeks
There housed in a 18x18x24" reptile tank ( glass sadly I know I shouldn't have)
I ended up taking out the front door and building a screen door for it.
Mostly because I ended up getting the coolmist humidifier
Uvb bulb and basking light which they maneuver around depending if they want to get warmer.
I have the humidifier on a timer as well as a small waterfall I made with a little water pump I bought to rain down the top of 1 side usually once a day for 15 mins while I'm at work.
The timers kick In waking them up at 7am I bottle mist the tank usually 3-4 times a day.
The tank is on a stand next to a window with the screen door facing it. So in the mornings I pull the curtain away and open the window and let them get natural
sun light.
They have their own so no one bothers them except when I feed or mist them. Also he's a month and a half younger then her but significantly smaller , is that normal?
Btw her name is Zoey and his name is Reptar ( I didn't pick reptar...)
