Drag the sun. The sheet states a night temperature, so the rail follows it.

The cool side, 18–27°C, dropping to 10–21°C at night. This sheet states the cool side only. It gives no warm side or basking figure, so the hot end is not in our data. Same scale on every sheet here, so two species compare by eye.

What your climate adds

This sheet states a range to hold. Your local climate decides how much work holding it is. Pick the nearest city: nothing is sent anywhere, the choice stays in this browser.

อาหาร

Feeding rhythm

every 1 dAs the sheet states
28Meals in 28 days

Twenty-eight days, one row. Each band is a meal window.

Why

The windows widen as they go because the interval is a range: four meals after a 10–14 day cycle land anywhere between day 40 and day 56.

The sheet statesmoths, butterflies, crickets, hissing cockroaches, waxworms, silkworms, butterworms, giant mealworms, dubia roaches; about 1 or 2 large prey items once or twice daily or every other day

คำถามที่พบบ่อย EN

How big does it get?

The biggest mainland African chameleon, up to about 60 cm with the tail and heavy with it. It needs a very large cage, not a tank.

Is it hard to keep?

Yes. It is big and sensitive, and most imports are wild caught and arrive in poor shape, so buy captive bred if you can find it.

Does it bite?

It gapes and hisses first, and a big one can give a real pinch, but it is not dangerous. Give it space rather than handling it.

What does it eat?

Large insects in quantity. A big one eats a lot, so factor the feeder bill into your budget.

Not stated: The heat sourcethis sheet names only the cool side: « cool 18-27 °C / night 10-21 °C »
Not stated: The size of the enclosurethis sheet describes the enclosure without a figure: « around 5 feet tall, 5 feet wide, and at least 3 feet deep »

Every line above is deduced from a value this sheet states, and names which one. Nothing here is a general recommendation. What the sheet does not state is listed too, rather than left out: a kit that looks complete is worse than one that names its gap.

This sheet states 4 of 7 of the fields this product runs on. What is missing turns something off: enclosure size audit, day/night engine and awake count on the globe, the diet section. We show the gap rather than fill it with a plausible number.

UVB is measured but does not count: it is absent from 421 of 678 sheets, and on most of them that is not a gap, since a nocturnal snake's sheet has no reason to state a UV index. Counting it would call the library incomplete without cause.
