I doubt I'll find anywhere here close to me but I'm desperate, so here goes. Anyone living in PEI Canada who is looking to buy a chameleon? I have a setup worth $600 I need to sell in the next week. I've had her for sale for a long time now and I can't find her a home. No idea why. I have...

Mango finally took a cricket from my hand. I've had her for 2-3 months now and all she does is run away and hiss at me. Every now and then I'll hold a cricket for her but she usually runs away. Last night she hissed, then stopped, starred at the cricket with a lot of interested and finally gave...

Is it possible to get my cham to hand feed? She seems to completely hate me, which is fine, but I've been around cranky ones before and they'd all at least take a cricket from my hands and over time seemed to realized I'm not so bad. I don't really know what to do to show her I'm not going...

I'm ordering the XL repti breeze (24" x 24" x 48") next week to replace my glass tank. Is it possible it will be TOO big for a 3 month old veiled? She's very small right now. Or more space the better type thing? I see a lot of enclosures with wood "perches" where do you get those? I'm also...

I'm looking into other options. There is a zoomed repti breeze cage, 18x18x36"

She is a female veiled. I can get these cages from my work for like 30 dollars. Also I'm from Canada. Know of any places to get a good, cheap screen cage for her?

Do you think the 65 gal is big enough?

Mango is in a glass terrarium right now, but I wanted to upgrade to a screen one which I read is better? I've been told glass is better because it keeps the humidity better? Can someone explain why mesh is better? This is the one I'm thinking of...

It looks like this http://zoomed.com/db/products/EntryDetail.php?EntryID=49&DatabaseID=2&SearchID=5 The exo terra one is a swirly one. I'll get a picture tomorrow, her basking spot is around 80-85 depending how close she wants to go. She doesn't usually sit there though. Her eyes are...

I was told zoomed 5.0 UVB has a larger range then exo terra UVB is this true? I now have both, not sure which to use. Currently using exo terra, but my girl hasn't eaten since I got her last week. The guy at the store told me changing to the zoomed light will help her as she's probably not...

Yes I did, but I want to make sure I'm understanding properly. I'm getting worried about her, she still won't eat. I haven't seen any poop that I know of so I'm not sure if she's impacted or not...Anything I can do to help her? To avoid stressing her I haven't been touching her or...

So it's 70 at the bottom of the tank. Should it be higher then that or will she be able to get enough heat from climbing? She spends most of the day in the middle/top of branches

Yes, I have the thermometer at the bottom, I'll check again tomorrow after the light is one for a bit to double check that temp. Can it be TOO humid? I have exo terra chameleon multivitamin right now. Could you recommend names of other supplements I need? I did know females lay eggs but I...

Here is a picture. I think I'll call her Mango. Any idea how old she might be? I'll keep trying to get her to eat. I hope she eats soon :(

I got my chameleon yesterday. I've been thinking about it for a long time now, I work at a pet store and I've been learning about them and getting used to them before I made my choice to get one. She is a young veiled Cham. She has lots of space to climb and move around. I have the...
