I was afraid I’d that after I plugged this one in and saw it didn’t really reach the sides. Trying not to have lights galore above him. I wish they made a light fixture that could handle multiple bulbs like that so I didn’t have so made. Do you know if they do? I imagine the jungle dawn 24”...

Okay, so Rio is a big growing boy. In April he will be 1 (my assumption since he looked like he was 3 months old when I got him). In the spring when Rio can go outside, I am going to be redoing his indoor enclosure. Currently he has a cat palm tree in his enclosure, and I’m going to get it out...

same, but I don’t have the room for the cages.

He’s a very handsome boy. He is standoffish but tolerates being weighed every week.

With Rios colors starting to darken up, I am starting to see blue, orange, green, and white!! Tho all these colors are hard to see when he is under his heat lamp. I don’t really see them until he is under his UVB bulb.

Thank you. He still isn’t a big fan of us, but I think overtime he will adjust.

I think he’s going to have some orange whether it be dark or light I can’t tell, his colors aren’t fully matured but he looks like he is developing some orange. It’s hard to…the waiting game of waiting for colors to pop is hard to handle 😂🤣 We are undecided with the name Rio. It’s not that we...

This is Rio, he is a juvenile Veiled a chameleon I got him from FLChams.com he still pretty timid but very much so full of life. Experience with FL Chams: Was very easy the Owner stayed in contact the whole even when there was shipping delays he got in contact with his rep right away so I...

Thank you everyone, it’s been a rough 2 weeks but I’ve dusted myself off and I’m off to the new Chameleon. Leon wouldn’t want his space just sitting around all vacant he would want another chameleon in his place to be repulsed by my presence just like him and his predecessors, Jade. The new...

Update. I had Leon’s appointment. Unfortunately Leon was euthanized. We did an xray that showed a mass at the back of his oral cavity. We sent that mass off and it came back as Lymphoma. Weird I never really considered a chameleon getting lymphoma but it’s a living being and I guess they...

I wasn’t very specific, I was just putting what the label said expecting the world to read my mind. I’d never do that to my chameleon. My snake yes, my leopard gecko sometimes. My chameleon never.

Let me reiterate what I mean when I say soak. I don’t take Leon and throw him in a bowl of water and say have a great swim bud, I put the electrolyte soak in his water basin for his mist king. And when he comes in 2-3 times a day to drink because I don’t blast him with the hose I bring him in...

The only reason I even went to the specialist is because he saved my snakes life without ever even seeing her.

It is a veterinarian that sees reptiles and was recommended to me for my chameleon. Because I have been skeptical since chams are a misunderstood species and I’m most definitely not asking that specialist anything else about Leon. I am going to push for X-rays see if anything shows up there...
