I work at a reptile specialty store and we had a Sambava Panther cham come in. I fell in love with the little guy so I was doing extensive research on the species. This video and the website helped me so much on how to take care of panther chameleons. I took the little dude home and named him Charles. He's got some spunk to him but he'll happily accept the occasional hornworm from my hand. He's now 7 months old! The information you provided makes the researching process so much easier to understand. Easily the best source of information for new chameleon owners!

I must echo the many others who have commented, that your care guide is second to none for Chameleons. I am absolutely flawed by the methodical detail you put into this, while still being concise, clear and welcoming. The addition of the graphics, including animation is fantastic and i so appreciate all the time and effort. Cheers!

Hey Bill, I have a question about something I read in a fb group. Anyway the post I saw said that d3 is unnecessary if you provide proper UVB. Is this true? I do have a solar meter 6.5r, I use t5 ho fixtures with reptisun as you suggest in your care guide for panther chameleons. I cannot keep outdoors all year. From what I've always read is that you should give multivitamin twice a month and that is what I have been doing. I use repashy lod twice a month and plain calcium. I have a double xl reptibreeze enclosure that I am in the process of converting to a hybrid bioactive per your recommendations. Thanks for your help as always ❤
@ChameleonAcademy
@ChameleonAcademy Жыл бұрын
It is true that you do not need dietary D3 if you have sufficient UVB. We in the community have proven that UVI 3 at the basking branch will provide all the D3 a panther needs. We give a multivitamin twice a month to cover the preformed vitamin A. The D3 that goes along with that is of no danger to the chameleon.

Lol, my enclosures have so many hiding spots more then once ive had a freakout thinking they had somehow escaped because i couldnt find one no matter how many plants and bushy bits i moved around. And thats for the adults (mind all my panthers are in literal walk-enclosures so plenty of places to get lost in) never mind when theyre babies and a single leaf can hide them from my searches. Ive kept all my panthers in glass and, never had a problem with most of them (all but the one but im pretty sure hes trying to scare me down to his lifespan, and his problems arent related to husbandry) It doesnt help that my oldest panther figured out how to open the store bought mesh enclosures himself pretty young (which is why i started building my own). Nothing like opening the reptile room only to see a fully open door to one of your enclosures. I once spent 4 hrs looking for him and started wondering if he hadnt found away up to the window and outside since i keep the window cracked to prevent the room getting too hot. Only for me to knock over a feeder bin and see the little shithead's tongue come flying out from where he had at some point climbed onto my boot while i was desperately searching for him. Found the chameleon, lost 5,000 crickets i had just bought too. It doesnt help that i have reptiles that would have him for a quick bite if he someone got near them (in seperate rooms mind but still. My frilly would have snapped him up in one bite never mind my monitors and they both have full room sized enclosures). I swear he's jealous of my human lifespan and decided the solution is to scare enough years off me to go out together. Took him to the emergency vet once because he was dark and half buried in the dirt and it thought he was impacted and dying... vet comes out... good news hes not impacted and in otherwise perfect health, bad news hes a hermaphrodite and was trying to lay himself some eggs. He may have further complications down the road since he has two complete reproductive systems instead of one complete and one partial. I wonder if that means he can get himself knocked up? Id best not give him ideas. That was an expensive sexing. And that shortly before that he had tried to hump the heat lamp (i had switched the heatlamp to where the humidity reader was because he was growing and i wanted to avoid burning his back...i though such a tiny hole i couldnt even get a finger through couldnt possibly cause problems...i was wrong) and he gave his hemipenes a sunburn...yes he managed to burn a normally internal organ and since he burnt his dick and i had to rub cream on it until it retracted i knew he was male. If the colours hadnt given it away already.

With the hybrid setups, should you setup a small fan to help circulate the enclosure to prevent stagnant air?
@ChameleonAcademy
@ChameleonAcademy 2 жыл бұрын
The need for a fan depends on your ambient conditions. In a room with low ambient humidity no fan will be necessary. High ambient humidity means a fan is more appropriate. The actual air flow from chimney effect works, but how quickly that air exchange is able to evaporate the moisture depends on the ambient humidity.

Can you do a video on Gular edema in veiled. My Cham is at full age and I can see that his throat at the back he hardly has a hole like before. He can’t swallow well and I have syringes blended crickets with a bit of baby food and vitamins with electrolytes. However he struggles taking that. My criticare carnivore diet comes in two days but he can just about take water. I have emailed my vet and waiting. However I know they will try out to sleep as he’s old. However I wondered if any way of bringing the edema down. My vet was wary putting on metacam as he thinks his kidneys are playing up as he had a certain smell from his mouth which goes with kidney disease. I’m keeping fluids down him. He’s lost his casque fat literally in a week . He’s still his happy colours but he falls a lot now so I have put areas with blankets as he prefers sitting like a cat

You could use a ceramic heat emitter at night, but make sure it is truly necessary. As long as they can warm up during the day it can easily go into the low 60s F. If it is going into the 50sF they can still handle it, though if this were a regular thing I would then start to think about a heat source that would nudge the temperatures into the low 60s.

I don’t want to go more or I am starting to flood the system. So, I haven’t found the right mechanical timer to allow that yet.

The only way to do it is an air conditioner.

Using a swamp cooler or such just doesn’t do the job. Luckily, panther chameleons don’t need it as low as Jacksons!

Hello! I hope I can respond in English! Fogging is a controversial technique with people passionate on both sides of whether it is the ultimate hydration method or whether it is a quick step to killing your chameleon. I look at foggers as tools. You accept a certain care guide and then you use whatever tools you need to get the conditions necessary. If I live in an area that has very high humidity nights then I wouldn’t use a fogger. If I live in an area with low humidity nights then I will definitely use a fogger. It is much better than a mister as it uses less water and does a better job. So, in my mind, whether you should use one or not depends on whether you need higher humidity or not. As for whether foggers themselves are dangerous, I have used them for years without a problem that I can trace back to a fogger. But that doesn’t mean other people have not had a different experience. So, for you, I would evaluate the different ideas out there, figure out which ones fit your situation the best, and then try it out without taking any sides in this very chaotic social media world!

Jetzt möchte ich wieder Panther pflegen und deshalb möchte ich mein Wissen ein bisschen erweitern. Ich brauche deshalb nachts auch eine sehr hohe Luftfeuchtigkeit, und das schafft man mit einem Nebler eben am besten. Ich habe damals schon einen Nebler bei meinen Tieren gehabt. Aber habe dann von anderen Leuten immer wieder nur schlechtes gehört,und habe ihn deshalb dann auch nicht mehr benutzt. Was für einen Nebler und von welcher Firma benutzt Du denn?Ich freue mich jedesmal auf ein neues Video von Dir. Mach weiter so.

Why does it say on the back of the repashy calcium plus and lod bottle to add on every feeding?
@ChameleonAcademy
@ChameleonAcademy 3 жыл бұрын
Because that is the recommendation Repashy has for the general use of his supplementation. Considering the immense diversity of reptiles and amphibians I think we are well within our right to tweak the instructions to match what our specific genus and species need. It is reasonable to assume that the dietary requirements of a diurnal, arboreal chameleon could be different from a crepuscular, terrestrial leopard gecko or a nocturnal leaf-tailed gecko. That said, using Repashy Calcium Plus for every feeding has been firmly established as a successful supplementation schedule for panther chameleons. The reason why this care summary uses Calcium Plus /LoD twice a month instead of every feeding is that I am wanting to use the natural process of getting vitamin D3 from UVB. Thus I use the Repashy Calcium Plus /LoD for the occasional shot of preformed vitamin A. Supplements are a tool like everything else and they must be used in conjunction with the other husbandry aspects you employ.

I'll assume this is not a gravid female we are talking about. Chameleons often walk around the bottom of the cage when they are pacing and trying to get out. At times they will eat the soil because of (presumably) missing minerals in their diet. But deliberate digging for any reason except to lay eggs is an uncommon behavior. This situation would take some detailed study to figure out what is going on.

@@ChameleonAcademy, many thanks fot the video. Here is Algis from another side of the pond - Lihuania, EU. I watch your videos and read your advices with great interest and pleasure, thank you very much! I am worried that my cameleon is not yet a grown up, he is just 10 months old and weights 150 gr. I though that he would need to be fed everyday. Would starving and eating every second day be beneficial for my 10 months youngster?

@@algisable at ten months he is right at the point where you can consider going to the adult diet. But that depends on whether he has reached full adult size. But, regardless of size or age, holding back food from him for a couple days will not be dangerous. If he is being picky then he either is full or else has a reason why he does not like a certain food item. (For example, some chameleons will refuse to eat superworms if they were bitten by one.) A very good reason to do this at this point is that it is not healthy to have a diet only of superworms. 150grams is a respectable size. If he is that size because of fat then there is definitely a health issue. Check out this page and see if your chameleon’s fat pads show he is growing in the wrong direction. chameleonacademy.com/chameleon-medical-obesity/

The main claim I see people make against glass cages is that the chameleon will see its own reflection and treat it as a potential threat. Is this not accurate?
@ChameleonAcademy
@ChameleonAcademy Жыл бұрын
Although possible and sometimes happens there are ways to mitigate the problem. It usually is not a big deal for the chameleon to settle in knowing that the ghost chameleon will never invade his bush. But these are things that are necessary to deal with if you have glass. And the only reason to use glass is if you need to have solid sides. And in that case you can’t just substitute screen in its place.

If the reflection is good enough then they can react to it as if it were another chameleon.
