I have a 3 month old male Veiled Chameleon. Ha ha yeah, they think they're sneaky little suckers.

Alright thanks everyone, i will try all of these things. He truly is an amazing creature though, i can't wait until i am a more experienced keeper so i can get some other species of Chameleons as well.

If all of these corporate pet stores were concerned and organized like yours, we wouldn't have this problem. It seems as though you are in the business because you are passionate about animals and helping others to be passionate about them as well. This is how all pet stores and breeders should...

My local petco had two male veileds housed together in a glass aquarium, the temperature in the cage was 80 F, no UVB and obviously no reall heat bulb, the water in the dripper was brown, and all they fed them was lettuce because they apparently didn't "like" crickets. Then i went to ask about...

Alright thk you, everytime i open his cage to mist or to clean it i let him know that i see him and then i just ignore him, i am hoping he will realize this way that i am his source of food and water. He has started to calm down a little around me but he still takes off when i try to hold him

Alright, so i have had my baby cham for about 2 weeks now and he has settled into his new home rather nicely. He has been pooping and eating and has actually grown considerably. So my question is this, how should i commence to holding him? I know that chameleons are not pets that are supposed...

You could always post a picture of your enclosure and a picture of your chameleon, maybe someone will be able to point out any husbandry issues? I'm not implying that there are or that you're doing something wrong or anything, but there are some extremely experienced keepers on this forum that...

Try www.reptilesupply.com i got a terrarium hood, reptiglo 5.0, mister, little dripper, (2) 6 ft. long vines, light fixture, 2 75 watt heat bulbs, and eco earth substrate all for about 90 bucks( shipping included). at a pet store you might be able to get the repti glo and the terrarium hood...

i think i read somewhere that they will eat around twenty crickets a day. As far as the light, that should be ok also. Watering the crickets can be done by giving them different types of fruits and vegetables. This way you gut load them and they get the water they need. However, you can also...

Ok, so it has been around five days since i introduced Thadius to his new home, and today is the first day that he has eaten. I was starting to get worried. I put feeding cups in all the plants and different areas of the cage hoping he might touch them, of course he never did( That would have...

Alright thank you i will start doing that, he seems to be warming up to his new enclosure though =]

Thank you for the replies. Today is Thadius's third day with me, and he has finally started to explore his cage. I beleive he ate earlier today as well while i was at school. He does not enjoy being misted though, it looks so cute when he runs away( well what i consider running for a Cham)...

He was marked at 2 months old on FL Chams, he is very tiny, but he has to be the cutest lizzard i've ever seen!

So after several weeks of putting my cage together and waiting for everything to be ready, i finally ordered my baby Veiled Chameleon Sunday night from FL Chams. He came in this morning and seems to love the umbrella plant in his cage.

You asked about the plants: I have an Umbrella Plant (dwarf shcefflera), a Ficus elastica, and a croton. I obtained these plants at home depot and all together i paid about 30 bucks. They are all under 34" at this point.

ha wow, i definately would not have thought twice about that decision. i would not have been able to resist that little guy

That would work, or something like a baby pool. If you use screen on the bottom of the cage and then place a tub or something underneath it to catch the excess?

I would go with what the vet told you to do, BUT the people on this website probably have a lot more experience with chameleons than your vet does. With this being said, it would be a good idea to fill out the information sheet and possibly even post some pictures. Someone on here might have had...

They are made of clear plastic What exactly are you trying to make? Something like a sink to catch water?

Plastic for the bottom would definately be the way to go, that way you could build a drain into it like a sink has. Also you may want to look into a soft tray. These are built for reptariums but you could probably use one for your cage. There are many different sizes on this link.-- Middle of...
