As sad as it makes me, my husband and I are moving and cannot provide the home our male veiled chameleon needs. We are willing to part with him only to someone who we know would take good care of him. We would also provide a large screen enclosure, lights, and a large potted plant. He is...

Add yours! 1. My chameleon is the love of my life. She, however, looks at me like she barely tolerates my existence. 2. Not sure if sick... or just on hunger strike. 3. Never being able to get a picture with both of her eyes facing the camera. 4. In half of the pictures I DO manage...

Dona has been getting ready to lay eggs for the last week or so (vet confirmed). She wouldn't eat on her own for several days and was very lethargic. The vet had us force food and water to her because she was getting too weak. We both work all day but have tried to leave her alone as much as is...

My cham will eat every single day, but occasionally she won't be hungry at the same times. Try again later in the day to see if the little one is hungry again. Don't stress too much unless days go by without eating or drinking.

Looks like we were right about eggs being on their way.

Dona is definitely getting ready to lay her first clutch of eggs (infertile, of course). We are watching out for her, and her belly has become more swollen and she is moodier. She is still eating and drinking and pooping. My concern is that she's spent a lot of time on the vines right next to...

She is about 6 months. Her plant is live and in a very large pot. We were hoping when we made it we could use it as a laying bin. We are prepared to get a sand bucket very quickly if we find she doesn't like the dirt in her pot. I'm definitely going to prepare it in the next couple of days by...

My girl is either getting fat or getting eggs. She's still eating (a lot), and hasn't been at the bottom of her enclosure. But I think that she might be getting (growing?) some eggs. The vet a few weeks ago said that she was old enough to start laying eggs and to keep an eye out.

Hi! Koopa is adorable, I love his big ol' eyes!

Congrats from The Woodlands! Stop at Buc-ee's for a celebratory treat!

You will NEVER be cooler than a chameleon climbing a rhino.

I recently had the same problem with my girl not wanting to keep her eyes open. At first I thought it might be something caught in her one eye, but then she started keeping them closed, rubbing them, and bulging them. I ended up taking her to the vet when it didn't get better after a few days...

Even in her most PMSing-adolescent-worthy hissy fit, Donatella hasn't tried to bite me... Guess that makes me very lucky!

I purchased my girl from PetSmart a couple of months ago. She was in relatively good health, but I don't think they were feeding her enough, and they had her in a tiny glass enclosure with very large pieces of substrate. When I spoke to the manager of the reptile department about it, she said...

Angie, my husband says that we likely wouldn't have the heater on all the time, just when we are home. This coming from Houston, where I have seen snow once in 12 years, and that melted in a few hours... He thinks the cost of keeping the house heated wouldn't be worth it.

It looks like my husband and I might be moving to Alaska later this year. We are talking to the Army right now, but it's a very real possibility at this point. I got Donatella with Texas in mind, and it's much easier to take care of her here than in a cold environment. We would be in the south...

Cute! I always enjoy searching for my girl in her enclosure. It's crazy how well she can blend in!

Dona's eyes didn't get better, so I took her to the vet today. She was diagnosed with an early stage eye infection that hasn't yet spread to other areas. I was given an antibiotic eye drop solution to clear it up, and she should be just fine. We also learned that she is otherwise in perfect...

Thanks! She is as sweet as she looks, except when she is shedding--then she's "itchy and bitchy," as my husband says. The pet store couldn't give us a definitive age for her, so we are guestimating 4-5 months old.
