Veiled or Panther Chameleon?

Use a 5.0 uvb light, a 50 - 70W basking light, and 6500k, 1500 lumen plant light.

nice! i will probably use this...

If your boy has trouble getting shed off showers work wonders. For a proper shower you should place a plant for him to sit on. Then you want to direct your shower head (spraying room temperature water) at the wall so only the mist reaches your cham and not giant drops. You can leave him there from anywhere from 15-40 mins (depending on levels of dehydration or stuck shed)

i didn't know half these bugs existed...
so no mealworms?

There is a lot more to chameleon keeping than most people realize. And it can get expensive. But if you are willing to learn and do what needs to be done, it's great.

You need a good staple feeder and then some variety in treats. Staples would be crickets or dubia. Treats would be the super worms, wax worms, hornworms. Meal worms are harder to digest. Wax worm are high in fat. Hornworms are high moisture so really good to keep them hydrated. Then you have silk worms and Phoenix (calci worms or Black Soldier Fly Larva). Phoenix worms are tiny, I buy them and let them turn to flies. My guy loves the flies. Then you get into all the things these worms turn into.

I do even when Mondo isn't shedding or noticeably dehydrated. I think it's good for him to have an extended period where he can drink without me having to flood my bedroom by spraying him for 10 mins xD

 

[Dumzy]

Yea, i use the reptisun brand, use the 5.0 uvb

 

[Chameleon Crazy Chick]

Also, other types of flies work for babies. Or so I've heard. I don't know who sells them though.

I don't think so, but I've been wrong before.
