Unfortunately I have no Pictures at the moment. I am using the Calcium WITH D3 and have only recently started using calcium without d3 daily. I usually mist 2-3 times a day with warm water for about 2-3 minutes. I am returning to the vet Tuesday but have been giving him the calcium orally...

Hello again everyone, thanks for visiting the thread. I have determined that my Chameleon is sick and it seems that he is going down hill fast. To start, he always seemed fairly active and attentive with plenty of energy. I noticed probably a week ago or so that there was a bump inside of his...

Would anyone be able to take a Wild Guess at the age? I am very curious. I bought him from Petco right at about 3 Weeks ago.

On the cage picture in the original post, You can barely see it in the top right but I have a probe style temp gage. I just recently got this (yesterday) and it showed me just how inaccurate the little gages were. Ugh. I did order a temp gun today though per recommendation on another thread...

YES! Okay... I was fine with a girl but was really hoping for a boy. I hope this is right! Thank you. No, you're right. I have been "Re-mapping" the Terrarium this evening and the ledge isn't doing my any good. He does like going down and eating the feeders that crawl under it but I have never...

I'm not very experienced in this department by any means (I'm a new Chameleon owner), however, I did recently go over the "Safe Plants" List and can recall seeing that plant being Safe!

Again, you guys are life savers! The whole bioactive setup is exactly the kind of thing I have been looking for. Did some quick research and can't wait to get started! Also, just to clear the air... Can anyone tell if the Chameleon is a boy or a girl from this quick little photo?

Thanks for the heads up. I have bought a replacement bulb for the ZooMed Blue Bulb but was wondering why everyone is recommending replace it? It does seem to emit plenty of heat. Is it just that a standard bulb is brighter? Also, should I just lose the carpet under the rocks or the carpet and...

Good to hear! Going to stick with the Pothos. Thanks for the information.

Thank you and @jannb for the info! I went out and got a couple of other feeders and a white bulb rather than the blue! I appreciate the info on the glass terrarium because I really do prefer the look (just want to do whats best for the cham). I'll see if I can get my basking temps down a hair...

Thank you for the great advice. Most of this stuff was recommended unfortunately but oh well. I will pick up some calci-worms on the way home today... If I'm not mistaken, do you keep Calci-Worms refrigerated? When I see these at the pet store they look as if they are dead in the cups (in the...

Will do, I will grab one on the way home today. Any Particular reason for this? Thanks!

Introduction: Hello everyone! I come to you all excited but also stressed out. I have recently purchased a Small (Maybe 3 Months Old?) Veiled Chameleon from my Local PetCo. With that being said, I went out and bought this Chameleon on a whim (I know, it was a mistake) without doing any...
