I actually think it is just skin. I just checked on her again and when I had her out earlier I cuddled her up against my sweatshirt and took some saline solution and gently rubbed in that area. I just went up and she has gob of skin hanging from around her eye. It looks like when it falls off...

PenelopeGarcia just had a full shed and it only took 2-3 days. At first I thought she just had some skin around her eye, today I decided to remove her from her enclosure and take a closer look (she does not like to be removed). Her color is usually a nice light green but in this picture she is...

We are new to veileds also, and when we brought our female home 9 days ago she did not eat for two days. On day three she demolished 10 crickets. On average she eats 10 on one day and maybe 4-6 on the others (I give 10 each day and remove what she does not eat before lights out). I think they...

May I suggest any of the male characters from Criminal Minds? I have a veiled female named Penelope Garcia:rolleyes:

I have read the list of good gut loading foods, and as I was baking sweet potatoes the other day just for this purpose, I thought about baby food. Can you use organic baby food just for this purpose....just put a spoonful in the cricket keeper?

great video...thanks so much

I mean providing fresh sand every few days so the sand does not get dirty and bacteria filled.

Ok so that is a really big bin. What do people usually use for those? Do you clean it out everyday or do you just leave it until she uses it?

Hello everyone. So we are coming along in Cham 101 and now I have a question about age and sex. We were told our veiled was a female but I have included a photo of "her" back leg for sex identification. We also need an estimate of her age. The picture that shows her on an arm is an arm of...

Thanks for everyone's feedback and helpful information. I guess it is steep learning curve!

Me too but she is a girl :D

I have attached the photos that have been requested. The first one is the general overview of the enclosure, the second the basking area and vine/coverage areas. The third, the live plants I don't know the names of..lol. Need to know if they are safe. I removed the smaller rocks this morning and...

Yes! It is a favorite show of ours. It was 100% my daughter's choice and she says her Chameleon is the star of Chameleon Minds.:rolleyes:

She is sleeping now and I am about to go upstairs and turn off that infrared bulb, her UV bulb went off 15 minutes ago and she is literally like a light switch when that happens. She freezes in position, eyes shut, it is super interesting to me. There is a bit of indirect light in our home in...
