I was kind of scanning around Chameleon Academy and saw a couple write ups on starting a juvenile chameleon outside. I was considering trying it but had some concerns.
The first is sunlight? Because of where I live the only location I have that gets direct sunlight is the west side of the house. Basically 4pm to sunset. Will that be adequate? All the chameleons I own always like to bask first thing in the morning. Temperatures will be warm enough without direct basking in my area.
Two is supplements? I don't think D3 is necessary but would calcium still be advisable?
I should have started by saying I do have experience with chameleons so I feel comfortable providing a dense cage. I would put a soil bottom. I know that's not advisable for veiled but this would be a couple months thing and I realize I maybe taking a risk with that decision.
