Hello, i got a chameleon about 5 months ago! I have been doing calcium every other day multi vitamins once a month, and calcium with d3 2-4 times a month! i feed hime 8-12 crickets a day and his mister usually does every 3 and a half hours for 85 seconds (He hates water with a passion). But all...

ok ill take a look in the morning cause right now when i open the cage he is diving away so i cant even get close haha

well its only on the top of his back in spots!!! would it be white and do they tend to be a little more skittish when shedding at a young age?

My little buddy has a couple of small white spots on his back. i assume they are thermal burn because they weren't there today and when i got home they were. I have had him for a month and a half he is veiled about 3 months old. I have never had a problem before and its on his back so i know he...

My Cham trusts me more than other people but I want to be able to pick him up mostly stress free so I ever need to take him for a checkup or to allow him fresh air in the summer and to move him to a bigger cage. He hand feeds some and does not hide from me but does to other people any advice is...

How do you pick your Cham Up for the first time? I know he trusts me more thank others but I don't wanna stress him or break the trust any help is good

he looks just like mine!(: how do you hold him at such a young age? i just got my little guy to eat from hand and he doesn't hide from me anymore!

yeah it's awesome!

I know i have been posting a lot of bonding stuff lately:p but I love connecting with the guy!! He doesn't hide on sight when i come to the room doesn't seem to be to nervous if I open the cge as long as i don't advance my hand at him or stare at him for awhile (creeps him out;))! he hand feeds...

Is it better to attempt bonding such as hand feeding and such at a older age or is it better to do when they are a couple months old? I don't want to hold it all day and stuff but i would like to take him on walks in the summer and get him a bit fresh air! any thoughts?

I bought him at a local pet store and just put the little cup he was in next to a branch and he climbed on out haha he is a veiled btw!

For my chameleon Leon, i am moving him to a bigger cage in a couple of months as he gets bigger! So i was wondering how do i move him over! chameleons dont like to be touched and i was wondering is there a way to bond with him so i could handle him on moving day? i dont want to stress him...

I use warm water but whenever the mister or i mist the cham flees and hides under leaves. i have only had him for 2 days but is this normal behavior? I see him kind of gulp during the misting as if he is drinking a little but is it normal to hide?

He is a juvenile veiled chameleon about 2 to 2 and half months!! i got him yesterday and i am so excited!(: they are definitely my favorite animal so it is good to have him! and thank you it is good to know crickets climb the screen so i have an idea of what he was doing! (:

so i hung a cup recently he hasnt gone near it but i have seen him shoot his tongue a few times. once at a leaf two times at the screen cage way up. is this him eating? the crickets are small and he wont eat when im near so i have to watch from another room and i cant see. can crickets sit on...
