Selling my six month old female veiled chameleon. I have everything for her habitat. 24x24x48 screened cage with a cloth privacy curtain. The Big Dripper, 18"UVB light, heat lamp, easy feed cricket cage, vitamin and calcium powder, temp/humidity gauge, repti-fogger and all in one cricket food...

I don't know if this has happened to anyone else, but the other day I was giving her a super worm. She is young and hates everything so I place them on a vine near her and a few moments later she gulps them down. Well, this time when she shot her tongue out....she missed and hit the vine. Her...

I read the guidelines on this site in the chameleon care about dusting with calcium, d3 and vitamins. It really does not give a day by day guide. I have a 4 month female veiled chameleon. I was wondering what are some of the daily intervals people are using when using these to dust the feeders.

Thanks. Yeah, i already got the stones. Pothos plant is coming in a couple days.

I build a wooden frame for mine. I have a video up at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SdxYs96f49E . You can see the frame but I don't show much of it.

Thanks. It is fixed now. New link is in original also post. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SdxYs96f49E

I finally finished Gordita's cage. Please take a look at the video and let me know if there is anything I did wrong or need to change/fix. Thanks! (I do have a reptifogger on the floor beside the cage but she hates it so i stopped using it.) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SdxYs96f49E

Probably the most effective way to go an cage like that would involve some sheet metal screws, a drill and some wire (small picture frame wire would work great). First you start on a side or the back. Make sure your drill bit is smaller then your sheet metal screws. Drill a hole in each...

Thank you FlchamMom. I am in the home stretch of getting the cage done but i need to make her basking spot higher. Thanks for the tips.

I am setting up my chameleon's permanent cage. I need to know how you get vines, rods, wood (the stuff they mainly climb on) to attach to the sides of the metal screen cages?

I just ordered a 24x24x48 cage. I know its big for a juvenile cham but i dont feel like buying 3-4 cages as she grows. I plan on getting the cage all set up and only worry about cleaning it. It will be so big for her i probably wont be able to find her, lol.

Yeah, thanks. I have been looking at the ones people have posted here and that type seems efficient and cheap. Though those types of drawers don't longevity and tend to get wobbly over time. My plan right now is to build a frame for it to sit on. I have a friend that owns a green house and i...

I will look for them. My local pet store is actually an Agway. No real reptile store less then an hour drive.

She won't eat worms. I have tried different kinds. But crickets are gone as soon as I put them in there.

Thanks for all the advice. DO you know of any pictures or diagrams of drainage systems? I want to set this thing up and only have to worry about cleaning it. And she is eating alot. 15 small crickets yesterday and i gave her 8 more today and she devoured them. I dont want to starve her but...
