Chameleon Info:
Handling -not as often in winter a couple times a week, don't want to make her too cold outside her cage
Feeding - crickets, she wont really eat anything else but spiders, and i have cricket pellets i feed the crickets. feed her every morning, she hasnt been eating as much recently so i give her maybe 12 crickets a day but she doesn't always eat them all
Supplements - every feeding i give her zoo med repti calcium without d3 and twice a month i give her the zoo med repti calcium and exoterra multivitamin
Watering -i have a little dripper i turn that on for a couple hours a day, on an off through out the day and i mist the cage maybe twice a day as well, she loves to sit under the dripper but i don't often see her drink.
Fecal Description -never been tested for parasites, poops alot of hard brown poops, not as big poops now that she eats less but still quite a bit and she also poops white runny poops but not as often.
Cage Info:
Cage Type - 1.5x1.5x3 ft
Lighting - bulb is exoterra solar glo 160w uva uvb heat bulb, right now her schedule is about 8a-8p im thinking about shortening it since its winter and the days are shorter.
Temperature - from about 27C at the very lowest to 32C at the very highest. usually from 28C-31C
Humidity - always between 50-60 about 54 most of the time
Plants - i have a ficus plant in the center of her cage and fake vines and ivy wrapping around the sides of the cage in a spiral
Placement - cage is in the corner of my living room, not a lot of traffic, not near any vents, about 2 ft away from floor and ceiling (apprx)
Location - Victoria, B.C. Canada
I'm a little concerned about my female Veiled cham, i believe she is full grown now she hasn't gotten any bigger in length and width and she has just recently not been eating as much as she was maybe a week to a week a half ago. Got her in august and she was maybe a month old, the pet store didn't really know how old she was but she was about 3 inches or so. Anyways first concern is she is eating irregularly and seems much more active, shes always moving, and doesn't seem to drink much (though she never has been know to drink a lot). Secondly, its kind of hard to explain but she is acting strange in the way of shes almost trying to find something in her cage that isn't there. I'm wondering if she is looking for a spot to lay eggs? I don't know much about females laying eggs, what kind of surface to incorporate in the cage or what to expect so any tips would be helpful.
