Here’s The hardest thing I have come across keeping fruit flies in the enclosure! I put a small piece of fruit in there but they keep on getting out and this raises a big concern because the babies need a supply of food at all times. I’ve heard of bean beetles being good feeders. Just really...

So this is a common question for new keepers. Often they will be attacked when mentioning that their chameleon likes to be handled. Sometimes this is warranted, but sometimes not. All too often new keepers think what they are witnessing is cute or that the chameleon "wants" to be handled...
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...
I know its been awhile since i've posted one of these but i've been caught up with school so. Anyways i just wanted to say that I really love Leon and im so happy he has a new better and bigger cage now. Theres not anything else to say other than that because there's been no new updates.
Has anyone ever bought a wild caught farmed chameleon? Are they harder to keep than a captive breed chameleons? Do they tend to have mites and parasites usually?

The Panther Chameleon in general is a fascinating creature to own. Whether you are interested in a female Panther Chameleon as a pet, breeding project, or both the males and females need slightly different set-ups and care. If you are interested in owning a female, I will tell you what has...
The amount of food you should give your Panther Chameleon depends on the age and the width of their head. Panther Chameleons are known for eating some hefty feeders but choking is a real possibility for them, so please keep that in mind. Mostly true for juvenile panthers. Below I've listed...

So, the inevitable has occurred, Zaphod has passed. He was only 5, and maybe that is an OK age, but I just expected him to live more years than that. I don't know, but I feel that I failed him somehow by not having him live for 7 years or so. I know that there are no set rules, but damn it, I...
SO, I've been busy with personal stuff, but I'm finally back! I got some really cute pics of Leon! Also he loves to be outside.
Okay so now its July! So that means that the monthly contest is here. I really like taking pictures, but I have a bad camera. I take Leon out for the first time to take some pictures of him, he turned very bright but my mom decided to put a filter on him for some reason. I took other pictures of...
