I just keep the red light on after lights out and then turn it off a few hours later when I go to bed.

This is Waldo's 4th night with us and I snuck up on him to snap a pic of him sleeping. It's amazing to see the color and pattern change throughout the day including at night when he's asleep. He's about 4 months old and an Ambanja. IMG_1091 by kanddr, on Flickr

Its a little boy. His colors are just barely beginning to show and so far it looks like he will have some nice reds and blues. The crickets I have are pretty small and so far they arent jumping out of that cup (which is the cup he came home in) but I'll be getting a deeper cup for him today.

Here is a pic of him in his enclosure. IMG_1077 by kanddr, on Flickr

I probably should have put this in the enclosure section. Please move if needed.

I picked up a 4 month old Ambanja Panther yesterday and I'm not sure if my enclosure is too big. I had an 18x18x36 and put him in there but I'm concerned that it's too big. I made his basking spot at about 82* How long until he moves around much, because right now he just sits in one spot...

Aww man, I came home from work today and he is in a full blown shed! I should have taken pics next week with his new skin.

He is my first Chameleon and everybody here has provided a lot of help so I do things right to keep Wally healthy and happy. :)

Thanks for the kind words everybody.

Hello everybody, this is Wally. Wally came to me with his horn already broken but it healed well enough that it never fell off and is now sturdy. I know some may want the perfect chameleon but I thought the broken horn gave him character so that is why I picked him. IMG_0421-1 by kanddr, on...

My Jackson will pop his eyes every now and then after I mist him. I'm not sure, but I think its their way of cleaning their eyes and they do it when it is wet so they can clean them out easier.
