When we brought our Mister Li-zard into our home we were told he was a Veiled chameleon, turned out he was a Graceful chameleon. But, we love him lots anyway.

You're very right about us not being completely ready for our chameleon. I did some research before bringing him into our home but did not do nearly enough. As I'm coming across things we're doing wrong I'm doing my best to correct them as soon as possible. With all the help on this site I feel...

I bought a humidity gauge today to stick in Mister Li-zard's cage and also some crickets to try to get him to start eating them again. I cut up some apple, carrot and butter lettuce for the crickets to eat before feeding them to him.

Thank you for your reply. I've got to go to town today anyway and I'll get him some more crickets to try again. I put his wax worms in a small little cup by a spot he likes to sit at. One of his plant's vines holds it in place since it's so light. After bringing him home in February he ate...

I'm sorry I didn't word it better. He has days where he eats between 2-5 worms daily. Then he has days where he won't eat for 2-3 days. I've noticed when my daughter holds him on the days he hasn't eaten yet he will sometimes go right back in the cage and go eat a couple of worms. He will eat...

I bought one and ended up using it to put his plant with vines on it. I cut it so it holds the plant perfectly and the vines hang all down the cage.

Chameleon Info: Your Chameleon - Graceful chameleon, have had him since February, was told he is around 1 year old. Handling - My daughter holds him at least once every other day for a few minutes. Feeding - Right now he will only eat wax worms. His past owners only fed him meal worms and...

Thank you so much for your feedback. We adopted him less than a couple of months ago. I've been doing even more research on chameleons since bringing him home as I want him to be healthy and happy with us. He came to us in a smaller sized enclosure of 16"x16"x24". My daughter saved up her...

When we first brought home Mister Li-zard he went on a 8 day hunger strike. We quit holding him right away and offered him some different types of worms to eat. Since then if he stops eating a day or so we quit holding him daily to get him to eating again. Now I'm noticing if he doesn't eat for...

We have several other type pets in our family and my 12 year old daughter decided she would like a chameleon as "her" personal pet. Shortly after she told me that we found a chameleon being rehomed on Craigslist. Since adopting him we have fallen in love with our Mister Li-zard.

I put my little guy to bed at around 9 pm and he gets up between 8 and 9 in the morning.

My cham won't eat crickets anymore. The people I got him from only fed him meal worms and the occasional cricket. After a hunger strike I enticed him to eat again with waxworms and phoenix worms. Now, that's all he'll eat. He won't even eat the meal worms anymore.

After misting down Mister Li-zard's cage and putting his food cup back in his cage my daughter was able to video him eating. We adore this little guy so much.

Our chameleon seems to sleep really deep once he falls asleep for the night.

Thank you both for the quick replies. Our chameleon is technically my daughter's baby but I guess my upcoming birthday will be a good excuse to get him a Mist king starter kit.
