If I'm not mistaken, someone more experienced can correct me if I'm wrong, but chameleons in the wild eat plants and flowers during the dry season as well to rehydrate and whatnot. Again, don't take my word for it, I'm only going from whatever I've read and heard, I have not had experience with...

We are crazy humans that think every species is like us maybe :D

Survival of the fittest. In the wild, it doesn't rain every day, just like there's days where they don't find any insects. So they just have to take advantage of rain when it does rain, keep themselves hydrated and ready for the dry season, just like bears have to get calories before they...

Petshops are a bunch of idiots. I've seen those 5 gallon terrariums at Petsmart with about 15-20 leopard geckos. They don't care for the health of the animal they care for the money in your pocket. If they can fit 20 chameleons in an enclosure, they will do it, doesn't mean it's the right way...

No, don't do it. Bad idea. The only way a chameleon would be okay with sharing a cage with other chameleon is if they were born together. And even then, they might fight for food and territory as they get older. It doesn't matter if its a male, female, transexual, or bestial chameleon. They...

This isn't a sugar glider forum, but I'll give you a couple tips from past experience. You will need a cage. Preferably over 2'x2'x2', you can get them at Petsmart or your local pet store, ask for a ferret cage or something similar. Make sure the spacing between the wire is smaller than 1/2...

I do recommend you get him to the vet for a check up. As for the lights, you don't NEED a dome or reflectors. It does help, and it is a little better, but you don't have to have it in order for the chameleon to be healthy and survive.

Yeah, to me it sounds like he's about to shed. Try contacting the previous owner to ask him when was the last time he shed. Chameleons normally shed once a month when they're in the baby/juvenile stage, and about once every two months when they're completely grown. Leave him alone for a...

No. A proper place to house a Jackson's would be a screen cage. Fish tanks or "reptariums" aren't ment to house chameleons. They don't have the air flow that chameleons need. Also, the chameleon can become stressed by seeing his own reflection on the glass thinking it's another chameleon...

You can build your own and save a couple bucks, you can also look on CL and get a used one for half of what you would pay for a new one

Well, she doesn't know what's in the cup. What you should try is grab the cup and show it to her until she starts showing interest in it. For all she knows a predator might be hiding in there, so that is why she shows no interest. You might want to try hand feeding her as well so she gets...

Niiicee! I h8 you by the way :D

The main problem with babies and large cages is food. But I think you mentioned you plan on cup feeding her, so the food will always be in one spot. Just make sure she has enough food and get the temperatures as accurate as you can, mist her, give her the needed supplements, and she should be...

Buy me a plane ticket and I'll give you a hand! ;) hahaha

Is it done yet? :D Seriously though, this looks awesome!
