Thanks men! Nope, this will be my first. I've done a lot of research about handeling and caring for cham's. I think i'll be alright.
I'm buying it from a breeder who has 15 year experience and what i've heard and red is that he has a good reputation.
I don't trust petstores either...
I have got a invitation to see the breeders animals tomorrow!! Its gonna be fun BIGTIME!
Still.. cage is not finished so the purchase has to wait for like a month or so
Keep u guys updated!

This is the result:
In this pic u see some green spots, i've just made sure every foam is covered with tile adhesive.

I love it too!
Working on my cage made me think again about doing it different. Im going to put substrate on the bottom(bottom gets sealed with epoxy so its going to be waterproof) Gonna go for a 15-20 cm layer off this substrate, plant mosses that suck up a lot of water and plant enough...
I've done some research before I bought them, the only thing with the begonia is that it could be that some crickets pollute the water that stays between the leaves. I'm going to spray a lot so I should be fine! The rest is all non toxic.
Thanks men, this cage is definitely going to rock!
So.. I've been busy working on my chameleon cage.
This is a foto of what I have so far.
This is how I made the top off the cage.
And this is the bottom of the enclosure..
Next thing is.. getting some glass and make it fit for the sides and the front!

Their 3-4 months old.
So.. I've shopped for the basic things I need for my cage, and I already bought some plants! Check 'm out!

In holland the plant in the middle is called the zebra-plant, going to rip it apart en place small 'bushes' off it on the ground and other...
Good to hear it was nothing too servere! Jeah, they are definitely beautiful looking animals! Thanks for the tip, I also red a lot about gutloading, but didn't red anything about orange cubus. Not going for that stuff, gonna feed my crix fresh food.
What kind of diameters does your crix...
Vit A deficiency? How did u know that if i can ask? I've already bought Miner-All and Calcium without D3, that's what a breeder recommended me..
I've made contact to a breeder that has babies from the species Furcifer Pardalis Nosy Mitsio, in januari they will be old enough to be sold...
Sorry to hear that your jackson didnt do well... About getting a veiled as starter, everybody is saying this jeah! I came to this point tonight that I made up my mind to get a veiled, and then Aboo shows his awesome picture of his PANTHER chameleon..
OMG Aboo, u got yourself one very gorgeous panther! Wow! great colors, looks very healthy!
Are u trying to convince me of getting a panther as a starter chameleon haha!
That's good to know. I'll definitely would get a panther someday! Haha it really seems that this is VERY addictive.. great!
I made some changes to my cage, I'm going to go for 100l x 50w x 125h this because I only could get this heat holding water resistant wood, for certain diameters...
