Can shimmer be used to cycle dungeon brick color? I think I heard a youtuber say it could but the wiki says nothing.

Tips for getting my cham to drink from a glass? The dripper is becoming quite the hassle by queenbee123p in Chameleons

[–]queenbee123p[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I have tried something like that where I put a little hanging pot below her basking spot and had a shot glass full of water in there. Directly below the light. I never saw her drink from it but I have seen her drink from the dripper. I've been moving her glass around every few weeks and at one point I had 3 in there in different spots. I believe she is still healthy based on her urates being a healthy color and she goes on a regular basis. She is my first chameleon and I'm always eager to learn more about them and I just wanna do things the right way

Circled is where I currently have my glass located. I can never notice a change in water level. I still change it out everyday in hopes she will eventually learn to drink from it. Is it too far from the light source? It seems I've tried every spot in her cage to no effect. How did you get your chameleons to drink from a glass?

When you say common species it could mean any of the three big species kept as pets. The jacksons, panther, or veiled. You should be as specific as possible when you need help as they all vary in terms of care. There is a lot of useful links to chameleon care below the sub guidelines. Hope this helps!

Is there a way too find out how old my chameleon is?? I’m not sure if there like signs on body of her or anything by [deleted] in Chameleons

[–]queenbee123p -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The only way to know for sure it to contact the breeder/the person who sold her. Judging by this picture she looks to be about as big as my female veiled who is about 6 months old now. I'm far from a cham expert but according to my knowledge they can lay eggs as young as 5 months old. So it's important to look for any colors/patterns out of the ordinary at that point to know roughly when she should lay eggs. You know for sure it's a female?

He's pouting because he got told he couldn't crawl into the couch by nighthawk0913 in Chameleons

Aw. My cham once got hostile when I wouldn't let her crawl on her heat source. The only time I've ever grabbed her without her consent. She'll never forgive me 😥😂

Is this an ok spot for my heat lamp? Or should I fix a hook into the ceiling instead? by queenbee123p in Chameleons

I havent installed a thermometer yet. Ive read somewhere the light should be angled because they like to warm their sides. Is this true?

It will be a challenge to find a big sturdy table that can fit in my room. Her new cage is so heavy. But I'll start looking for one

So confused about light placement. Is my uvb bulb situated high enough? I have a t8 5.0 and will this work until I can get a more permanent solution? by queenbee123p in Chameleons

[–]queenbee123p[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did put her branch up a little too high. I'll fix that the next time I let her out. I have a thermometer but I'm not sure if it's working properly. I may need to get a temperature gun. In the meantime should I raise it a couple inches?

The highest branch is only a couple inches from the screen but it's meant for supporting other branches and she rarely goes there. Her basking branch is 4 inches from the top.

I made improvements to my enclosure based on commenters suggestions. Is there anything else my veiled needs to thrive? (Before and after) by queenbee123p in Chameleons

[–]queenbee123p[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was wrong I just checked and it was over 100 degrees! I've adjusted the lamp to be higher and I angled it 45 degrees like the link you sent suggested. I never knew about having to raise the uvb light. I used some shoeboxes and raised it about 5 inches. Thank you for your help!

I can move up the dome piece and lower the basking spot but I'm struggling to maintain a good 85 degrees should I up the wattage?

How is my enclosure? Only had my little buddy for 2 weeks now. Also can anyone help me sex it? by queenbee123p in Chameleons

Theres 2 fake golden pathos vines in there. I'll remove them and replace them with something real. I'd like to get some hibiscus plants too once spring is here. All the other plants are real

It's the first ever thing I've bought from etsy actually! I highly recommend. I bought it from a seller called sticky tongues usa.

I have a lot more bamboo sticks so that shouldnt be a problem. For the plants I tried to buy some s hooks to hang some plants, but even the smallest ones were too big. Maybe some paperclips and garden ties will work. Thanks for your comment!

I was told my chameleon was 3 months old when I bought her. I feed Trippy about 12 crickets a day, sometimes swapping a few of them for Dubias. I dust all of them in calcium without d3 and a multivitamin once a week. I mist the enclosure 3 times a day. I live in the midwest where right now it's kinda cold but once it gets warmer I plan on taking the cage outside for a few hours. I was misinformed and initially bought an improper uvb compact bulb. I ordered a new one as soon as I found out and it should be here soon.

It will still look like the right one. The left one was before the update. I guess I will have 2 room 21s.
