Chameleon Info:
Your Chameleon - Male ambilobe panther, roughly 15 months old.
Handling - a couple of times a week.
Feeding - large locust, 3 tubs per week.
Supplements - I dust locust before they go in, zoo med reptivite with d3 2 x month, Exo terra calcium with d3 1 x per week, zoo med repti calcium without d3 most feeds and I give an occasional feed with nothing on.
Watering - I spray the entire enclosure for a few minutes, he more often than not starts to drink.
Fecal Description - last I saw was today, white solid urate and brown poo, it looked a little softer than normal and had a bit of a wing in it.
History - no issues.
Cage Info:
Cage Type - exo terra flexarium 100 gallon large 76 x 42 x 122cm with bark substrate
Lighting - 2 x 100watt clear spot bulbs in exo terra domes a few inches above the enclosure, arcadia euro 5.0 T8 uvb tube with reflector inside the enclosure 1 week old. Both lights on for 12 hrs and off for 12 hrs, I also use a heat mat under the enclosure to help the substrate dry out between spraying.
Temperature - basking spot measures 90f, opposite end measures 72f, I havent checked the night time temps for a while it's around 60f, all temps measured with round dial thermometers permanently in the enclosure.
Humidity - between misting humidity is around 60% after misting it sits at 80% measured with a round dial hygrometer.
Plants -a few fake plants and one large rubber plant as the locust ate my ficcus so I'm growing it back!
Placement - enclosure is in the corner of the living room directly on the floor, there is an air vent in the floor next to it which I've taped over recently and also it's wooden floorboards so may be a breeze coming through them.
Location - Stockport, UK.
Current Problem - Hi guys, ever since I moved my panther out of his exo terra glass tank into a larger flexarium he's been fairly dark in colour, he brightens up when I get him out sometimes. I've thought it was something to do with winter as it seems to be during the winter months he's been darker (not black) could anyone shed any light on this? I changed my uvb tube last week as it was due and I thought maybe it was that but he's still looking sad, he eats and drinks as normal and hasn't displayed any worrying behaviour.
