Basic info on Misting and fogging...
Of course, all animals require water to survive, and it isn't as simple as placing a bowl in the bottom and calling it a day. In fact, with most chameleons this will have little, if any benefit. Most chain pet stores display their chameleons with a water bowl, and this can be misleading to the...- Decadancin

Individual Baby Cages or Caging during the time of Covid
My first prototype I was planning on using Exo-terra Nano glass cages for my baby cages but the supply chain issues we are all too familiar with made me get creative. Forum member, MeruJack, who I all but stalked on here when I was getting started used Nanos for her baby jacks and she had a...- JacksJill

Egg Laying and the Laying Bin
I free range my chameleons so I really have to pay close attention to when it’s time to lay eggs. I think one of the most important things is to have a gram scale and weigh her once a week. If she's gaining and you are still feeding the same amount of food then I figure she must have eggs. You...- jannb

What my adult chameleons ate over the last while. Some ate slightly more, some less - this is an average of the food eaten (more was offered but not taken on some of the days)
June 14: 2 crickets (gutloaded, calcium with D3dusted), 1 silkworm (gutloaded with dandelion)
June 13: 2...
well, today, we toured around helping visitors, and the 1250 summer campers that were there. i got to feed the stingrays, and i witnessed the feeding from atop the 400,000 gallon tank filled with sandtiger sharks, sandbar sharks, southern stingrays, nurse sharks and the like. and to answer a few...
Well, my first day went a little bit like this,
I first arrived at around 8:30am and talked with some people until it started. then, we talked about fire exits, and crowd control type things which are surprisingly boring and mundane. then we had a little break, then toured the place...

So i got a male beardie in june 2008 from petsmart...it was a rocky start with his care and now i look back a see myself as foolish and stupid....but on a lighter note...he is now 11 months plump and 21 inches...so i would say he has the life.
my chameleon came to me as my second scaly friend...
Layla is now starring in her own movie on YouTube. I discovered last week that my digital camera takes movies too. Not just phone camera type movies, but pretty good quality movies. So I got a 15 minute video of Layla outside eating. What I thought was going to be just a simple edited short...

Two days ago I took Layla outside again with a plastic cup containing two E. Distanti roaches. The weather was not the best but I really wanted to get outside for a while. As soon as I sat down at the patio table with Layla on the grapevine branch resting across my lap one of the resident...
Layla is fascinating to me because her behavior is so hard to understand. I got a fresh batch of Hornworm cups from Mullberry Farms last week. The worms were pretty tiny so I had to wait for a week before they were big enough to make them worthwhile as a feeder.
Yesterday I took a big fat...
New Arrival: Bringing home a new Chameleon
Chameleons are susceptible to illnesses brought on by a host of bacteria, viruses, and other pathogens. Diseases spread most rapidly in unsanitary and crowded conditions and most easily affect weakened or stressed animals. Such conditions are almost...
Layla:
Layla is my female wild caught Melleri. I purchased her from Outback Reptiles over a month ago. I have two other wild caught Melleri, Knopfler and Imperiata, but have had to refrain from handling them much because of their age and disposition. Layla is an adult or close to being...

From personal experience I have learned the importance of having a good chameleon vet. If you go to a vet that's not that familiar with chameleons you are wasting your money and your chameleon's life. They charge the same, if not more, than a vet that knows chameleons. Then usually after you've...
In much of the world, people have enjoyed eating insects for thousands of years. Insects are nutritious, espcially when gutloaded. Raising insects is environmentally friendly and relatively easy. They require minimal space per pound of protein produced, have a better feed to meat ratio...

Lali hangs in despite her deformities. Her spirit is wise. (Xanth) Mr Triggs is easy going and watches at the front window when he's not adventuring with me. (Xanth) And Fractal, now three years old, seems happy eating his quail eggs and is very active and interactive. (Veiled) Can't ask for...
