OK, so I need some chameleon connoisseurs to help me read my chameleons body language. I’ve had him for about a year now he’s a panther chameleon and he’s been like all my other three chameleons I have where they’re like fish and you just pretty much look at them and don’t handle them as often...

I have a 3 year old panther chameleon who has been acting ill the past couple of days. He is bright yellow and sleeps most of the time. His cage did get down to 62 degrees one night. Could that make him sick? I noticed him rubbing his eyes on some branches as well. He is normally out in my...

Hi! I got my chameleon, Kiwi, in late July of 2025. (He was around 3-4 months old) When I got him, he was super lively and started eating right away. He climbed on my hand when I put it in his habitat, and would not want to go back in when I tried to put him back. Recently, he hasn't wanted to...

Just changed around my chameleons cage added extra plants etc. and now he doesn't want to be in his cage and he keeps on trying to climb the glass and every time I put my hand in he climbs up me and won't go back in his cage. But before he used to love being in his cage. Is he ill ?

One issue I can see with experimenting with diet is that you might cause the chameleon some health issues such as MBD if the diet isn’t balanced….and it will just be suddenly obvious not show up slowly enough to correct before it does damage. You need someone with more knowledge of nutritional...

Hey everyone this is my first post, and I have a few concerns and questions. Its a long one so I’ll give some background info, so bear with me. My daughter has been going through some health issues and wanted an emotional support pet. Long story short, we went out looking and she fell in love...

Only put Walking Sticks in the chameleons enclosure when feeding the Walking Sticks out. That is going to calm your never about chameleons getting bit (or other mishaps) and save your plants. Best Regards Jeremy A. Rich

Most just bond two 2x2x4 ones together if you just want a 4 ft wide 4ft tall one. Its pretty easy, just get 2 cages and 2 aluminum yard or meter sticks. Or if you can find 3/4 or 1" wide aluminum stock it would be even cheaper. Then just get some wee rust resistant nuts and bolts, drill some...

I just wrote a lot in a reply to @MissSkittles and would love to hear your thoughts on my crazy ideas as well. you sound very smart😂

Hello! It might not be a bad idea to fill out this form so we can see if all's well with his current care. Pet shops don't often offer chameleons the care they need, and seem to get longterm issues due to this as well. As far as vets, a lot will see chameleons, but finding someone who is very...

Looking for links to feeders that can get attached to screen cages without damaging it and preferable one a cricket can’t get out of, my chameleon can’t use his tongue but will eat if he can reach it without it moving everywhere, although it’s a bit difficult giving him his other food option...

Build out the cage and test all of your levels for a week. This is going to tell you what needs modification. You want to make sure that everything is set up perfectly before you purchase the chameleon. Once everything is running correctly with temps and humidity levels day and night then you...

I need help getting my veileds humidity up. I already use acrylic sheets over his cage at night, I have a humidifier and I mist, (whenever I see the levels too low for my liking.) I have live plants as well. I put a fan next to his cage but it’s in front of the acrylic on rotate. so it doesn’t...

Hello everyone! I’m excited to find this forum! I’m getting my first baby soon ( veiled male). I’ve watched almost all of Bill Strands videos to learn as much as I possibly can about this species. There is a 3 month old baby right now at a reptile store here in town and he is the most...

If you can get a close up picture of this chameleon's back feet, it'll be really easy to gender them. I'm personally thinking female with what we see, but it's good to make absolutely sure to know if you'll need to make a lay bin or not. The biggest concern with the chameleon death kit (in my...

Pinworms and Roundworms are easily treated with Fenbendazole (AKA Panacur) or Pyrantel Pamoate (has the same end result). These are very safe drugs and, usually, are two or three doses. It can be challenging getting your chameleon to open their mouth, but they usually start by opening their...

Hello again, I got my hands on a Dragon Strand cage and wanted go transfer Jax into that new one. Based on advice here, I took him to get tested for parasites. Low and behold, he tested postive for pinworm and roundworm. I'll be meeting with the doctor tomorrow to get his medicine which all...

So I have a 18x18x24in enclosure with another cage on top to make it taller. I plan on buying a new enclosure for my chameleon and want to get a crested gecko into the glass tank. My question is: should I strip the tank clean, or should I leave it how it is (it’s bio active btw) and just out the...

Hey there everyone! I’m coming close to a year of owning my Jackson’s chameleon and I think he’s starting to outgrow his 18x18x36 glass cage I got him when he was a baby. I was thinking of building a custom 2-2.5ft x 4-6ft cage with wood and various other materials but have had some worry’s and...
