For humidity, for any chameleons, when using a mister with a schedule - It is very important that the enclosure dries out between each misting. Might be a useful tip for the next opportunity you have to discuss it!
@@zrykismet1032 if an enclosure is perpetually wet, it is a good environment to foster mold growth and house bacteria, it’ll also soak whatever is below the enclosure.
Very good video, almost exactly what I tell everyone looking to purchase a panther. I do not recommend anything over a 60 watt heat bulb though, specifically in a deep dome heat lamp fixture as well with an ambient that gets over at the very least 74 degrees ideally 76-78 degrees. If the ambient drops below that it will cause some panther chameleons to get very close to that heat lamp and get a burn. ESPECIALLY with wild caught that have no idea how to thermal regulate yet. I also agree with the 80-85 degrees at the basking branch, 90+ is too hot.( i imagine though it would be okay to get a higher watt heat lamp if you raise it above the enclosure using a temp gun for basking branch, this would also allow a longer gradient for larger enclosure) your humidity and ventilation segment is also very important in this video. Overall great video I will be recommending this video to new enthusiasts. Thank you!
I haven’t kept one, but I think veiled chameleons are way more hardy than jacksons chameleons. Jackson’s can be more challenging in their care requirements. I’ll make a video on it
That’s tough. I don’t think any chameleon will be on Banba’s level, but generally speaking I’d go with Panther chameleons because they are less feisty and are more easy going.
@@outdoorsman_cris it really depends what you’re into, also veileds live longer usually. If you’re okay and interested in taming the beast, or rather having a chameleon tell you how it feels more- get a veiled. If you want a puppy like chameleon, get a panther. Veileds are much more common and thus cheaper. As tricia suggests get one from a breeder. Wild caught chameleons don’t make it very long even with lots of love regardless of the species or locale. But one thing to consider is your current environment, temp and humidity of your place of residence: i think this is the more problematic thing to control for a new keeper, but if you already lived in a place where it is 40-60% humidity indoors by itself, a veiled could be kept easier (potentially). But get one you’re stoked on, you’ll want to take better care of it.
I’m not sure about caimans or Anbronias. I’d look out for breeders who specialize in the species you are looking for rather than breeders that just sell wide varieties of farmed animals.
I feel like I would just end up killing one... they are so fragile and their care requirements are so rigid that the idea of being responsible for one kind of freaks me out. So, so pretty though! I guess I kind of wish I had a friend who had one so I could enjoy them without having to worry about them.
I think she gives the community more facts about good husbandry than some people, who own one over years. There are so many mistakes people make and she told about a lot of dos and don'ts. If you can give us also good advices, go on😉
Well that was rude. You have no idea how much she knows and how much research she has done. How many chameleons have you owned? She doesn't question that, so why should you? You dont have to watch this video, if it bothers you then dont waste your time and leave.

Wait, why is it important? I’m doing research for a Cham and I didn’t know this.

They are my dream reptile! Thank you for making this! ❤
Of course!!! 💕💕💕
Wish I knew all this when my mom had a panther chameleon. Now will know for the future

Awesome. Going to check out franschams. Been wanting to get a female Cham . Btw great job on the enclosure.
Thank you! And you will not regret it! They are my favorite chameleon breeders
Thanks for the helpful advice! Ive done a lot of research and Ive had my panther for a few months but Im still learning!
You’re so welcome! Good luck with yours! 💕💕💕
Classic Tricia video - well done
Im probably gonna pick up a baby panther chameleon this weekend
Good luck!!!
Love this animals & your videos 😍👏🏼
great vid
Wow Tricia this is another awesome video I love it. :)
Great job on this video! I like chameleons to look at but I don't think I'm ready for a chameleon as a pet, yet.
Thank you always for all of the useful information and you taught to something today about Vitamin D3 and giving every two weeks. 😎👍🏼
I’m glad I could help! 💗
Hey idk if you’ll see this but how did you get your tiger salamander?
Which multivitamin do you recommend?
Hi Tricia, are three-horned chameleons still available in the pet trade? I haven’t seen one in many years.
They are! You don’t see them too often anymore though.
How much do you spend on bugs for all of your animals? I have 3 that eat bugs and it’s been ridiculous! 😆 bugs add up!!
I’m about to start a dubia colony
Jackson chameleon vs veiled chameleon which is best for beginners and easy to care
I haven’t kept one, but I think veiled chameleons are way more hardy than jacksons chameleons. Jackson’s can be more challenging in their care requirements. I’ll make a video on it
What chameleon do you prefer...a veiled or a panther?
That’s tough. I don’t think any chameleon will be on Banba’s level, but generally speaking I’d go with Panther chameleons because they are less feisty and are more easy going.
Yeah, im planning on getting one just wanted your opinion on which type of chameleon is better. Thank you!

@@zachariahtaylor-black3918 awesome reply... 👌

Which other reputable reptile breeder website's do you recommend? Reptiles such as Caimans, abronias, etc
I’m not sure about caimans or Anbronias. I’d look out for breeders who specialize in the species you are looking for rather than breeders that just sell wide varieties of farmed animals.
Ah I see, thank you!

So you're makig a care video about a species one individual of which you have managed to not kill for all of three weeks?
It’s actually been 4 weeks. Lol I have background experience and make sure I know what I’m doing before I get any animal though. But thanks.
