How To Handle A Chameleon

Hey Guys,

We get tons of email on the subject of handling a chameleon. It has been tough explaining how to hold a chameleon in words, so we figured that a video might do the trick. You can check the video out here:

Thanks for watching.

Great video!
Do you mind coming over and trying to hold my Nosy Be?
That guy is a nutcase!
He will do a deathroll on your hand.

By the way, the sambava female I purchased from you is doing great.
Thanks!

Hey Justin,

Glad to hear everything is going good with you guys. The male in the 3rd video is the craziest chameleon I've ever come across. He's just super vicious. I bet if you got your Nosy Be out a few times, he'd start to mellow out. Just gotta be careful.

ah! very nice video, this should be bumped forever haha, or put on the homepage or something, it could certainly take a small chunk of threads on this out. and maybe help a few with those stubborn little guys like mine
does anyone really think that "wearing green" thing really works?

I can confirm that wearing a red coat on the way out for work and approaching the cage for a final check; does not work.

Great video!

my veiled (who is usually extremely cranky and doesn't want to goto anyone new) loves neon colored shirts. My girlfriends roommate was over one time and she put her hand out and he went right to her and was extremely happy crawling all over her. She was wearing a neon green shirt.

I dont have any shirts like this so i dont really get that luxury but my gf has gotten him to come to her easily with a similar neon yellow shirt
