Went to the white plains show today and saw 2 flapneck chameleons. One was a baby about the size of my pinky and even a little smaller. He had one eye closed and I was nervous to buy him because he was WC. I saw another flapneck that was WC but was with the vendor for about 4 months now and he made a nice poop in the container, and was very active. I decided to take a shot and get him. He hasnt eaten anything Ive put in the cage but Im going to give him time. My main concern is the humidity is only 20%. I have dripping water, I mist him and the tank but nothing will raise it. Any ideas?


Heres some pics of him!

Also forgot to mention the day time temps are about 70-75 because the vendor I bought him from said to use a 40W daytime bulb but I dont think its good enough. Also wanted to mention I got him from Allen Both of Reptile Kingdom who had some nice chameleons.

I am not familiar with the flapneck but he's absolutely gorgeous!! Great find for both of you! As for the humidity, it does seem low - if you add some live plants to the viv, that should help raise the humidity. As far as daytime basking temps they also seem low but I can't say for certain. I'm hopeful someone with flapneck experience will chime in. Good luck with your new family member!

Thank you, and that was his color right out of the container. I cant wait to see him later on lol. But more importantly I guess you could consider the plant he's hanging from live, because it does have roots but no leaves. Lol
