Maybe so, but it still seems to calm him. I tend to talk to all my animals though. Talking also helps to keep me calm and level in my motions especially when dealing with an aggressive animal. Doesn't matter if the animal is a 540 gram Chameleon or a 1200lb stallion - calm fluid motions are...

I do this very thing with my Steve. All misting is by hand, same with feeding. Yes sometimes he's grumpy - but we talk with him all the time and we usually call him a grumpy pants and ask what's wrong. As we talk our voice seems to calm him and he tends to calm down and brighten up. Sometimes I...

Just a little update. We have finally finished planting Steve's cage. I love the way it's turned out! Lots of help browsing the forum here and pulling ideas from various people & combining them to make our own perfect setup!

Thank you. :) Steve is a good boy, we have had him about 6 months. He has grown leaps & bounds since then. He enjoys being handled and will actually seek adventure several times a week by hitching rides on us when we open his enclosure for misting & feeding. (We are careful to return him at...

Steve, my Veiled chowing on a Dubia Roach. : )

It's been a while, but thought I should come & share some new photos of Steve. Last time I chameleon I was questioning gender, but as Steve has matured, Steve has definitely come into his own. He may have the smallest spurs out there, but he has made up for that with beauty! Here are some shots...

We could care less, actually it's almost better. No need to worry about egg binding. Of course ruins the whole cage set up with permanent egg bin thing we have going....lol

I must have an odd ball.... My guy doesn't ever drink from leaves when I mist....EVER. Instead when he is thirsty he runs up to me and drinks straight from my mister bottle - every single time. I keep a little dripper bottle in there at all times and once in a while see him use it. But rarely...

Apparently "Scarlett" is just not well endowed as others. :x lol I asked on the breeding forum to get others opinions too. Specifically to ask he or she. General consensus was he. Now to retrain myself to call it a him and not her...;)

Some more angles. Hope it helps! :)

Is there an angle or view that would make it easier to tell? She's normally pretty Easy to handle though is molting and a bit grumpy today. :p

New here, and new to Chameleons. :) We got our "gal" a few weeks ago. We had been told that she b was a girl, and when we researched spurs on males, we came to the same conclusion. BUT... When I posted a thread introducing myself & Scarlett it was suggested that she may be he...so opinions? Do...

That's kinda why I thought girl too. Her Itty bitty bumps looked nothing like the spurs of other male veiled I looked at. (Though I admit, many where not all that clear.)

Veiled Chameleon

Where I got her from said she was a girl, and when we looked at pictures of spurs she didn't appear to have them to us. Here are some better shots - obviously we are not experts..;)
