I think I'll probably go the cardboard method, load Perry's cage in the back of the moving truck and keep Perry in the cab with me to keep him warm.

I'm moving in about a month, and could use some advise on the least stressful way to get Perry to our new apartment. It's not going to be a far move, only about half an hour away, so it shouldn't be too bad. The outside temps have been pretty cool lately, usually in the 30(F)'s. Any ideas would...

I got a roll of aluminum screen from walmart that seems to work fine for me

Perry has this habit of crawling out of his cage when I am misting. I put out my hand so he can climb on and I can put him back in. He hops on willingly, but he sprints up my arm and straight up onto my head. :rolleyes: The only way I can get him off my head is to kinda bow until my head is in...

I was getting ready to spot clean Perry's cage and found him playing Mission Cham-possible :p

Found this bathroom sink and counter combo at home depot for around $40. I used a Dremel tool to drill some holes in the PVC bottom of the cage. The water drains out of the cage, into the sink and down into a 5 gal bucket inside the cabinet part. It looks nice and gives me some extra storage...

Finally decided on a name: Perry the chameleon :D

Thanks everyone! It's awesome to be part of such a welcoming community. :) The little guy is getting adjusted pretty nice, he's a lot more active today. He doesn't seem to like cup feeding very much, but if I drop some crickets on the leaves of his pothos, he goes right after them!! He's...

thanks! Yeah, he had a bit of an attitude with the pet store lady. but when I got him home, he didn't even hiss at me when picked him up to put him in his cage. I'm hoping he stays like that with me, but from what I've read, I probably shouldn't get to used to it!! :p

After a year of reading through posts on this forum I finally decided I was ready to raise a chameleon of my own! Just picked him up today, and he seems pretty comfortable at his new home. :) He's a 4 month old veiled. Still have no idea what I'm gunna name him!! :o
