Take care

Panther Chameleons are one of the most fascinating reptiles using their different colors ranging from yellow, red, green, orange and blue. Males have a white stripe on the sides that start at the mind and travels to the tail. Females possess a stripe and bars which are more conspicuous if they have been stressed. They create a great pet to the newcomer but there are not any chameleons which really are a "piece of cake" to take care of.

The Way to Pick a Panther Chameleon

Should they are drab and dark in color, skip buying these. They have been stressed or have now been living within an improper temperature. Selection: The coloration of a chameleon is a fantastic indication of its condition. Drab and dark colors are indicative of stress or fever that is improper. If you see the one who is 'bowlegged", or includes a jagged spine or jaw, skip buying that one. They might have metabolic bone disorder. If their eyes have been closed for long periods of time throughout the daytime that is an indication the pet is not. The chameleon that has his eyes is a fine pet strong and healthy. Assess for any fungus on the skin. Panthers retained at the best terms and looked after could live up to 10 years.

Food:

Panther chameleons are insectivores.

Feeder insects ought to be gut filled with vitamin supplements and calcium. Crickets are their primary staple, however, mealworms are good. Do not overfeed since it can shorten their endurance.

Hydration:

Provide clean water daily with a drip bottle that you're able to drip slowly on the foliage over the enclosure. The water needs to move in order for them to recognize it. A fantastic misting will likewise be enjoyed.

Enclosure:

Air flow, that may be achieved by two sides of display, which is crucial. Only have one chameleon lizard each enclosure. They are solitary animals and company inside their homes will highlight them out. Maintain the temperature at the same end of the enclosure for basking at 90-105 degrees, and maintain this at the highest point of the crate and so the temperature changes that occur will mimic their nature. Remember that reptiles do not produce their own heat, and therefore, you must pay close attention to provide them the temperatures they need to thrive. They will go to the warmer and hot areas, because they feel needed. More heat will be absorbed by darker color chameleons, and the pale colors will repel the heat so having them separate from each other is imperative. The other spots of the cage must be in the 80's during the afternoon and mid 60's through the night. Heat stones and warming pads.

Utilize Retisun 5.0 or UVB output bulbs. Keep out of the reach of our pet or they are going to get burnt.

Mist using tepid to warm water several times a day. 50-60 per cent humidity is desirable and the airflow is crucial to avoid bacteria.

Size of cage needs to be about 24x24x48. Plants like a rosa, pathos, or devil's ivy are good for the crate. Forget the rubber bands and fiscus.
