    CB 9 weeks old Jackson babies

    Hi, I still have some Jackson babies that were born on Sep 30. They just finished their first molt. Feed on one-week old crickets, baby dubia roaches, and baby cherry-red roaches. $45 each. Picked up only around Cape Cod, MA. I also like to sell two female adult Jackson (the mothers) for $60...

    Time interval between clutches

    It is one month later now from the female's first ever infertile clutch. The female has yellow spots, although not very bright yet. I tried introducing her to the male yesterday, she gaped and seemed unwilling to mate. After the male chasing her a few rounds, I separated them. Will try...

    Freezing and stiff muscle. Dead chameleon with moving eyes?

    He cannot see the female. The only time I introduced him to the female, he wanted to mate. But the female was black, so I took the female out immediately. I mean I can feel its muscle is very stiff, like a dead chameleon if you once handled one. If I gently pull one leg off the branch, it will...

    Freezing and stiff muscle. Dead chameleon with moving eyes?

    My male 9-month old veiled started a very weird problem. The whole body seems freezing, and limbs and tail are very stiff. It barely move, just keeping in one position for a couple of hours. The color is very light, almost like its sleeping color. This appeared two days ago, and after a while...

    Time interval between clutches

    My virgin veiled female is about 11 months old and laid her first ever clutch of infertile eggs. There are 42 of them. I was amazed by the clutch size. So I wish her next clutch to be fertile, and the male is long ready. So how long should I wait to give the female some time to recover before...

    HORRIBLE Husbandry of veiled at PETCO

    Hi, another owner from MA. Two weeks ago I walked in a Petco to get some crickets for my veiled and I immediately noticed they have replaced the poor knight anoles with some thing odd. And turns out that they are two small male veiled about 5 inches long. That's when I knew the ban in MA has...

    FYI: chameleon is legal now in MA

    Just found this, for people who don't know. The coming spring MA reptile show: Restricted Animals Announcement: On January 3, 2014 the Commonwealth of Massachusetts changed the Code of Massachusetts Regulations (CMR's) to reflect the de-regulation of the following species of reptiles that...

    FYI: chameleon is legal now in MA

    Went to a Petco yesterday and surprisingly saw veiled for sale! Never happen before. The petco person told me it become legal (possess without a permit) about three weeks ago. So I went to the MA website and found this is ture! So that means more trade and sale in MA in future? We can also...

    bringing cham to vet without permit in ma

    "Examples of animals requiring a permit include endangered and threatened wildlife" This certainly includes chameleons, since they are all on CITES.

    Great read on WC chams

    Simply stop buying WC animals. They are not born to entertain us.

    Young veiled fell off branches

    That's my thought as well. But just wondering what else can go wrong to cause the fall. It drinks and eats really well. Temperature is from 72-85. Medium size reptibreeze screen cage. I had it for 2.5 months. The recent 1.5 month were on a reduced calcium dust. I will resume dusting for every...

    Young veiled fell off branches

    My 4 month old veiled was doing great until last Friday, when I left him out to bask under the sun at the warmest time of the day. I noticed him staying at the lower level of the branches, which means he doesn't like the bask. I took him back indoor immediately and set up the basking bulb. That...
