veiled on the ground

There is no set distance a light should be from the cage. Each viv is unique. The distance the light should be from the viv is based on the temperature.

Oh, nice I didn't know that before. I'm not using Google again for chameleon care

Thanks. This forum is so helpful!

I had the lights on their side beside the cage bc she was on the ground. Now that she's climbing, I moved the lights back on top of the cage. The lights were to far away when she was stuck on the ground.

I also gathered some branches and rocks outside. The rocks for the plants. I've washed them very thoroughly. Now they're drying.

So I've been reading a lot of forums on here today and now I'm wondering if Petco was wrong that she's female. Yall have looked at her pics. Does she look female to yall?
Seems like they give horrible advice to everyone!

if the chams directly under it and too close, move it to the back...... reading some of the comments above, 2000 being spent already WOW lol can i see pics??? curious now as Ive spent around 7-800 dollars on my veiled enclosure and i think i have it all but apparently not lol

Large extra tall Exo Terra, bioactive substrate, universal rock background, 36” quad t5 HO lighting, ceramic heat emitter, Exo Terra sunray, custom oak cabinet, backup battery/surge protector, herpkeeper with 4 digital temp/humidity probes, monsoon rs400(not the best, but it works), solarmeter 6.5, nearly every book on chameleon/bioactivity I could find, digital laser temp gun, TONS of different supplements/feeders, oh, and the chameleon. It adds up really fast. Not to mention veterinarian visits or many orders to feeder companies and cage decor.
