They do really well outside here in Florida, I work down in Homestead by the Everglades and we see them now and then running around wild. <br /><br />The tentative answer is that he is *probably* getting all the UVB he needs even in the shade, however, since there are two layers of screen in between that cuts down on how much UVB actually makes it into the cage. If there is a corner that gets even a little bit of direct sunshine throughout the day (maybe early morning or afternoon) that would make me feel a little more comfortable. I’ve kept chams outside on porches and lanais but they always got at least a bit of direct sunshine throughout the day, even if it was only an hour early in the morning. <br /><br />He’ll definitely relax with time, let him get used to everything for about a week or two and then you can start gently seeing if he’ll come out, eat from your hand, etc. Olimpia Martinottihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08363399562932574219noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8667332768834059568.post-11873125080565116772016-08-28T11:19:49.518-04:002016-08-28T11:19:49.518-04:00Hello.

He's in great health and we have the reptibreeze open air screen cage setup for him out on our screen enclosed deck. The area of the deck we put him in is covered so doesn't get direct open sunlight. Will this provide him UVA/B that he needs or should we move his cage for the 20 minutes a day to direct sunlight. We're getting a place for him to get shade in today as I'm afraid with the temp around 90 degrees right now that it may get too hot for him. He got a bit skiddish after we got him home, but I hope he'll become less stressed over the next couple of days so he will come out of his cage.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12984480429440578587noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8667332768834059568.post-84131240530943301172015-01-12T09:20:29.949-05:002015-01-12T09:20:29.949-05:00Hey Shelly, sorry that the pet store gave you such...Hey Shelly, sorry that the pet store gave you such bad info. They do need a heat bulb (for a little female a 45-60w household incandescent should do, they don't need it much warmer than 80-85F) and a UVB bulb. Something like a Reptiglo 10.0 or a Reptisun 10.0 would be the two easiest to find at a local pet store. <br /><br />You would want to set the lights up over the cage and have them on 12 hours on (or I follow the sun, so right now in winter it's more like 10 hours on) and 12 hours off. She will need complete darkness to sleep, so don't worry about getting her a red bulb or anything like that that pet stores like to trick you into needing. <br /><br />She may have MBD from the lack of UVB lighting but it's also possible that she's not eating because she's too cold. Without any heat they can't run their bodies like we do, so she will just sit in one spot and not move because she literally can't. Providing her with the basking spot and UVB light should help her become more active and get her appetite back. <br /><br />If she does have MBD look into purchasing a calcium powder without any vitamins at all (usually Amazon is a cheap source, should be no more than $5), so just plain calcium with NO vitamin D3 or anything. This, dusted on her food, will help rebuild her bones.

The pet store said they didn't need a heat lamp or a UVB. She is a few months old. This week I haven't seen her eat. We tried tonight to hold a cricket for her to eat but she wouldn't. What can I do?

I mist very frequently during the day when it's very hot and the cages are in the shade nearly the entire day. But then in the afternoon it usually rains and the day cools off, so my chameleons do really well outside.

So they get Repashy plain calcium every meal (depending on their age they eat every 2 days to daily) and then Repashy calcium plus (which has calcium, multivitamins, and D3) about once a month. I essentially just use it for the multivitamin. Indoors I would have used the calcium plus 2-3 times weekly, very lightly.

But I think that as long as they can get a few hours of sunshine (especially in the morning, to warm up) they can do fine in shade the rest of the day. One study on reptiles and UV said that just 20 minutes in direct sunlight created blood vitamin D3 levels that could still be detected 2 weeks later. So this suggests that they don't need to bask for UV all day, a short while is enough to make the vitamin, even though there are still usually good levels of UV even in shade (typically higher even than what artificial lights output!) <br /><br />Mine are outside right now and they get direct sunshine in the morning (about 8-11) and shade the rest of the day. That basking time is enough to get them warm and active all day long. <br /><br />A really great website where you can see the UV readings outside, even in shade: http://www.uvguide.co.uk/uvinnature.htm<br /><br />Hope that helps!Olimpia Martinottihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08363399562932574219noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8667332768834059568.post-5090009213759330582013-04-12T01:46:51.827-04:002013-04-12T01:46:51.827-04:00Great article.
