Good just do not cover the top screen or bottom screen. Cut a slit in it so you can peek in.
Wonderful!

Make sure the vet is a reptile vet and familiar with Chams. If they are not they can cause her harm by not knowing. Typically they will do an X-ray to check for eggs. They should not need to run bloodwork or give any type of injections. Do have them check for the possibility of an RI though. Good to be sure on that one.
Everything looks normal to me but it has been some time since I had a Panther. I am going to tag in others. But yes she is pissed. I could tell in the earlier pic as well because she is flashing you red on her gulular area (throat).
Thanks. I don’t think she likes that I gave her a less food today. She keeps walking to her feeding cup and looking in like bugs are going to magically appear. I swear she thinking "the only thing you were good for was giving me bugs and now you've went and screwed that up too. Wtf" lol
In the end it is what is best for her though. I do not have the hands on experience but I am really wondering if she is not either receptive or gravid. The personality can change with a female. But also with a male when they know they should be breeding rather then eating lol
The mouth looks good to me.
Thank you. i’ve never had a Chamaeleon but I’ve seen on these posts How quickly things can go bad. And how long they hide being sick. I’m going take her to the vet this week such to do check up and make sure she doesn't have a RI or eggs. her strange behavior just had me really worried since it’s a holiday I can’t get into the vet unless it was an emergency. I think I’ll feel better once I have an established vet for her. Even if she does have eggs already at least I will know and can keep a closer eye out from a distance of course. Hopefully she’s just receptive and the reduction in feeding will help prevent a large number of eggs.
From what I’ve heard, 45-70% is good for daytime panthers? Correct me if I’m wrong, but I’m pretty sure chameleon academy recommends 50-70%. I keep mine at 50-60%, so I’d like to know.
Bill recommends 50-60% range for daytime... 45% would still be within range. But sitting at 65% and higher in a hybrid enclosure with no air circulation IMO is a RI waiting to happen.
So it’s not that it has to be at 100%. It’s up to 100%. Mine with a fogger hits 75% and my boy is perfectly hydrated. See what your levels are later. And remember the temp drop is important because it will help boost the humidity level. Remember the point of higher cool humidity at night is actually the naturalistic hydration method. The key to fogging of course is air flow and temps below 67. I drop mine to 60 every night.
