My Veiled lived for 7.

Yes, just the abstract is viewable at this link. :(

Indoor husbandry of the panther chameleon Chamaeleo [Furcifer] pardalis: Effects of dietary vitamins A and D and ultraviolet irradiation on pathology and life-history traits http://www3.interscience.wiley.com/journal/68753/abstract?CRETRY=1&SRETRY=0 Interesting, I am contemplating signing...

So after 7 years my veiled passed away a few months ago. :( I sat for that long looking at the empty cage contemplating what to do with it and ran into this guy yesterday! Really happy to have a cham again and really pleased with this guy. Any ideas on his age? Store said hatched in Oct. 08 but...

Will be in Toronto on bussiness. Hoping to get some hornworms. Thats Toronto Canada BTW :)

I like the photoshop idea. Could have some spectacular results.

Today was Kodas first day outside since I got him and the effects were amazing! He is a veiled and I read all the posts about how veileds are aggressive and I figured I was just lucky because he has always been a pussycat. Today when I went to take him inside he was in true veiled form hissing...

I feed gutloaded superworms, hornworms, silkworms, butterworms and gutloaded crickets. Mealworms aren't that nutritious and should be avoided.

Very nice! Just what I want my next cham to look like.

Just bought 1000 silkworm eggs. I dont want to hatch 1000 at once. How can I store the rest? I dont think they were kept cold before I bought them and they certainly havent been for the last 8 hours.

What kind of soil do you have in your plant pots? Maybe he was poisoned?

I dust three times a week, maybe 30% of the feeders each time with Calcium only. Twice a month with D3 and twice a month with reptivite. Only thing I have done recently was forget and give him reptivite two days in a row.

How long should I lay off the supplements when this happens?

Fattening up Koda (he needs it badly) and trying to keep myself from buying anymore chams this summer... I have been window shopping for a panther lately. :)

How big is the cage? Maybe you could put a plant light in the second socket for your plants? If you have live plants...
