So HD sells Perlite in little 5lb bags, and vermiculite in 50lb bags. I definitely dont need 50lbs of vermiculite. Im wondering the difference, if any, and if I should try to find some vermiculite instead of the perlite i just bought.

Hey guys,
So ive got my frame for my new cage built, minus sealer, plexi, etc(hopefully by next weekend). I am trying to find some screen material. I want to go with something other than mesh screening, but took a look at hardware cloth and it only comes in 1/4" squares. Does anyone know of...
Hey all-
Im going to build a chameleon cage this coming weekend, and was thinking of making it 24" wide, 16" deep, and 48" tall. Is this too small of a floor footprint?
She is currently in a 16.5"x16.5"x30" screened cage...

Also- does anyone else have ant problems? I cannot seem to keeps ants away from both my feeders and...
Hey-
Ive been misting my chameleons with a hand bottle, for about half a bottle of water per cage (about 2-3 min, 2 cages right next to eachother get overspray). There are 2 baby veileds and one juvenile veiled. I do not see them go for the water though, they more like run away even though i...
I was OUTRAGED while at petco today. While their fish department absolutely lacks in every way, such as keeping dead fish in the aquariums for the whole day and not having sand in their saltwater tanks (contains necessary bacteria), I was really there to look a the chameleons.
They have 3 2"...
So its been heating up here recently, and i want to know if its ok for me to keep my chameleons outside. It gets about 85 during the day, and down the around 65 at night. I have them in the shade, where they will get sun for part of the day, and have been misting every couple hours.
Let me...
hey guys, ive been searching on here, but havent really found a thorough explanation of how to build a DIY misting system. What im looking for....a misting system that i can use with 3 cages. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Anyone have a guess? Theyre at petco this week for $59.99, i thought i would pick one up. I think its around 3months or so? anyone have experience with petco chams?
When breeding, do the offspring represent more of the mother or father in color, or is it a good mix? Reason im asking is my buddy has a male, me a female, however my female has way more color than his male ( i think his is from petco GASP!), i dont know if it would be worth it to get a colorful...
Im wondering for a veiled chameleon, is it really necessary to succumb it to a mesh cage? Im thinking a ficus tree, with a large plant tray to catch the droppings, no mesh cage, and for the crickets cup feed?
