We just moved across country and the package containing the chameleon cage got lost!!! Our chameleon got here safe, but now he's in a cheap 12x12x18 cage - and none of the local pet stores carry screen cages (middle of nowhere yay). He's an adult Nosy Faly. We got the hood for the cage...

Chameleon Info: Your Chameleon - Male, Nosy Faly, bought from LLL in beginning of November. Estimated to have been born Handling - Once or twice a week to clean the cage (not a full cage cleaning, just basic care, but I sometimes need to move him around as I pick up leaves, poop, clean up...

OK, so I've been trying to keep track of the crickets my baby panther has been eating. I usually am all about free-range eating, but I figured I'd give cup feeding a try. So I've been putting the crickets in a rather deep deli cup. not too deep that my cham can escape, but deep enough for the...

We still don't know if it's a boy or girl yet (even the vet said he couldn't give a 100% answer). We are debating between a few names: Googlie, Gump, Jenny and Bubba (Forrest Gump is my fav movie - can you tell??).

I've always slightly doubted my husbandry because I never have anyone to compare it to in real life - just everyone on the forums. I finally brought my baby nosy faly to the vet today. We went to Dr. Cecil in La Mesa after I read a few extremely positive reviews about him both on here and on...

So, I happened to be thumbing through a book at LLL the other day and say something interesting. Evidently, with panthers, if you check under the chin, males will be gray-green or otherwise "colorless", while females will show vibrant reds. I checked out the sexing panthers thread and two other...

photo 2 by indianteardrops, on Flickr photo 1 by indianteardrops, on Flickr Here's our new baby Faly! But I need help thinking of a name! My boyfriend mentioned how the red rain look like chicken pox, so I'm thinking Pox or Plague or Mercutio, since Mercutio's final line in Romeo and Juliet...

I've finally gotten over the passing of my Kukui (even though i still cry at times) and now I'm getting depressed not having a cham. I talked to a few local SoCal owners (you know who you are - thanks!) so I feel more prepped for the climate out here. However, I am going to be buying my first...

Kukui died today. He was about a year and a half old. I brought him inside, right inside our front door, because it was supposed to be the low 90's today. Well, my boyfriend's father kept the front door open all day, no AC, and it hit about 110 where we are. We came back home after seeing...

Kukui is being shipped across country today via SYR and I admit, I am slightly nervous. My boyfriend assured me that he will be home to receive him and the fedEx guy said that they have it down to an art and that the fedex guys in San Diego are so used to receiving reptiles that it won't bother...

I know, I know. I've asked about a dozen questions about shipping my cham, but as my ship date is two and a half weeks away, I'm getting anxious. I am shipping out my year old male Veiled. I have my questions down at the bottom, but a bit of explanation to go with them before. I got my box...

Honestly, I don't care much for the locale or sire or dam or any of that jazz, but I have been trying to hunt down a male yellow body, red bar panther or a juvenile that is starting to show yellow body, red bar. PM me if you have anything available.

I just got my shipment of butterworms today from Mulberry Farms. They look awesome and were promptly stuck in the fridge. However, i got home with a gigantic note next the butterworms that said "not human food." Add about a dozen more expletives and you can comprehend how irritated my...

After reading about Tonedo's need for a manicure, I got the urge to redo my nails. Now, mind you, I change my nailpolish on a weekly basis. I am a bit of an amateur nail art fiend. I can upload some (non chameleon) nail art, too, if anyone is interested. :) So, without further ado...my...

So, i have my ticket bought to move out to San Diego and I already purchased my SYR kit to ship my male veiled out to San Diego as well. However, I was wondering if it is a good idea to fatten him up before shipping? Or would that not be a good idea? And by fatten up, I mean get him some...

OK, so this is going to sound like a super odd question, but bear with me! My mister recently broke (and I'm blaming the cat :p) so I'm in the market for a new one. However, in September, I will be moving across country to San Diego and I'd like to bring my mister with me but pay the minimum...

Chameleon Info: Your Chameleon - Male veiled, approx 1 year old, been in my care since August 2011 Handling - once a week , while I clean his cage. he is generally a pretty chill guy. Feeding - Gutloading on a homemade gutload (assorted fruits and veggies, depending on what I happen to have...

OK, so I'm not going to the expo because I live out in NY, but my boyfriend, who does live in san Diego, is going to check out the chameleon offering on my behalf. I gave him a list of what to look for, but I guess my big question is what type of chameleons are generally available. I...

So, I've noticed Kukui does this often and just curious to see if anyone else has noticed this. Whenever Kukui poops, he will go to the bottom of his cage, poop, and then climb back up. I wonder if it's an instinct, like "I don't want to poop near where I sleep, in case a predator smells it"...

Seriously, people should supervise me when I go to reptile expos. I can't go by myself anymore! I went to the Mid Hudson Reptile Expo and was originally driving down to just check it out. First thing I noticed was the complete infiltration of bearded dragons. There were so many, everywhere...
