OK, moving right along... Chameleons separated. Female has a great new home. Male now in a 2x2x48 screen cage. Next up... providing water! The photo is of the 3 watering options that came with the chameleons. Am interested to know which might be best to use. If my memory serves me, Veiled...

Thanks for comments! I found a great home for her last night!

Anyone located nearby Interested in my 6 mo old female Veiled Chameleon? She is a rescue I picked up last week. She came in cage with male. They are now separated and I do not need 2! She will be free to a good home. Thanks!

Perfect! Thank you all! I will separate them right away! Fortunately, I have an extra cage. I was sure this needed to be done, but he was so convincing that I thought maybe I had missed something. As far as the eggs go, They were 3 weeks old when I got them and none were fertile, which...

OK, so as I posted earlier, last week I came into a pair of Veiled Chameleons about 6 months old. Very healthy and female had laid her first clutch of eggs. I assumed I needed to separate them ASAP. A member here confirmed my thoughts. So here’s my dilemma... my local reptile store guy is...

Thank you both for mentioning the pet insurance! I had no idea you could get that for reptiles! LOL! I will check out the links.... Have a great day!

Thank you! That is what I thought! I always heard that they need separate cages and shouldn’t be kept near each other, but wanted to double check because sometimes information changes. These were given to me late Sunday by a guy that just didn’t want to deal with them any more. Unfortunately...

I really appreciate your comments, photos and honesty. I will definitely follow your suggestions! I have another question... The pair of Veiled chameleons came in an 18x18x36 screen cage. I have ordered a 24x24x48. My plan was to move male to larger cage, but am now not sure about separating...

Perfect! Thank you! I I will do this today. Right now they are still burried. I haven’t disturbed anything. I only saw some of them through the bottom of the container. Couple of questions, how often is it appropriate to open the lid to check on them? Also, does anyone ever put them in some...

I just got home from picking up what turned out to be a pair of Veiled Chameleons. My problem is that the guy also handed me a plastic shoebox with eggs in it. I was caught off guard, so didn’t ask any questions. Once Home, I looked under the box and could see what looks like a healthy group...

Hi! Just wanted to update that my male and female Jacksons are both doing great! I seperated them, etc and it took a bit, but female is now beautiful green just like male! Male is constantly climbing on to me when I clean cage, always staying a beautiful bright green w/ yellow and turquoise...

We live in Monterey County in California. Temperatures are mild and we get a lot of fog. I was reading and happened to see an article indicating that Jackson Chameleons can live outdoors most of the year here, if not year round with proper heat. Does anyone keep their chameleons outside...

I am new to this website and to Jackson chameleons, but I have LOVED all reptiles since childhood! I was a little girl of 4 when I picked up my first lizard and was amazed by it! My mother wasn't so happy though because it was dead! I didn't care, I thought it was cool! Haha!!

My Veiled actually lived for almost 7 years, which is within the norm for them. You have a couple of very good points! First, I really don't think any exotic is ever really "happy" when caged! I guess I mean't as happy as could be expected under the circumstances! :) I did reptile rescue...
