    Need help lower humidity-daytime

    If your humidity in a basement is never lower than 65% you could be looking at mold issues. I’m not concerned for his respiratory issues but rather yours, because you live in that basement. Please consider investing in a good quality dehumidifier and keep it clean with regular light bleach...

    “Unique Temperment”

    No I actually passed on the female. I don’t want to be tempted to become a breeder. I wouldn’t want the stress of incubating, raising, and selling off little babies! Two is the best number for me

    Meet my new male Ambanja, Walter. He arrived this morning and ate crickets within about 2 minutes of his arrival. Zero apprehension. He’s a love bug. Also appear to be starting a shed so here comes the confetti already lol

    Chameleon Kit Half Off at Petsmart

    Hey everyone, yes I know we all can’t stand this chameleon kit BUT it’s half off and is great for a temporary enclosure during deep cleanings. I also use the medium reptibreeze enclosure for keeping grasshoppers. It comes with a heat lamp and uvb bulb which is just fine for feeder hoppers...

    Suggestions for achieving night time temp requirements?

    I’m lucky to have a smaller finished basement with a window AC. On cooler nights I can actually open a window and it gets down to 65ish. I can also run my dehumidifier which heats up the space. Every day is different so I’m down there several times a day adjusting things.

    He was just insecure, that’s all. All we need to do is give them space and all the bugs they want. I don’t like handling my chams. When they puff up I act like ohhhh my he’s a big scary monster ohhh no I better not touch you big guy. Then they think yeah you take that you bald ape there’s...

    “Unique Temperment”

    Oh Granny the girls are no big deal at all. The lay bin is just a staple in their enclosure and once in a while they lay some infertile eggs, just like a chicken. Female chameleons are so sweet and they’re smaller so a XL enclosure is sooo much nicer for them. I’ll hold off pics for a...

    I do not plan on mating them but if Albert turns out to be an outrageous one of a kind chameleon, that could be a cool adventure.

    I had two chameleons before my brother got sick. I figured I would get back to my happy place, which is having two. Everyone ignores females because they’re not as brightly colored but they have way better personalities IMO. Can’t wait to set up an enclosure for this sweetheart

    New Veiled Chameleon mom..

    Some chameleons are more tolerant of handling than others. But don’t mistake their tolerance for friendliness or companionship. Chameleons are solitary reptiles and don’t have a pack or herd like some mammals. Raise them accordingly. Also, as chameleons age, their personalities can change...

    Need help lower humidity-daytime

    You need to measure the square footage of your basement and then get a dehumidifier that can handle that square footage. It’s length x width and that’s the sq ft. I also have my enclosure in a basement and it’s no problem. I mist before lights go on and after lights go off and have a ton...

    Dean sent some hoppers. As expected, they were a big hit. I think Al ate 6 in just a few minutes. Big bright colors during the hunt and he threw all caution to the wind
