    Veiled Chameleon Questions Health

    Ok, yeah…that sure is a male. Can you post some pics of his enclosure, including the top with the lights? Perhaps going over your husbandry, or at least the most essential parts of it would be advised. Having correct uvb, supplement regimen, temps and humidity are the most common areas that...

    Veiled Chameleon Questions Health

    For the tldr of the lay bin, they prefer larger bins of about 12”/30 cm on each side and a substrate depth of approx 5-6”/13-15 cm. The substrate needs to be able to hold its shape when she digs and the best to use is play sand or a mix of regular soil with play sand. Moisten it just until it...

    Veiled Chameleon Questions Health

    I’d like to see more pics of your chameleon…clearer ones that show head and body. From what small bits I’m seeing, I suspect you have a gravid female that is needing to lay some eggs. If so, you need to immediately set up a proper lay bin and read all of this while giving her privacy...

    Fan Air Duct for Glass Enclosure

    I’ve found that I am allergic to just about all of the bugs, but it’s stuffy nose and itchy watery eye severity. I can handle them, clean their bins and all that, but I have to wash my hands very well after and for those in a bran substrate, I wear a surgical type mask. I thought initially it...

    Fan Air Duct for Glass Enclosure

    Are you able to breed at least some of your own feeders? You would need heat mats for them, but you’d never have to worry about running out. While I’ve given up on breeding crickets, I can say that roaches, superworms, wax worms and mealworms (for other reptiles you might have) are super easy...

    Lukes Cage

    Do I understand correctly that you have the skyway between/connecting 2 separate XL enclosures? Or is it coming off of a double wide? Regardless of which, I’m all for anything that provides your chameleon more space and enrichment. If I didn’t have cats now, one of my panther boys would love this.

    Newbie Alert!

    Instead of all of that, I would suggest spending just a bit more and getting Neptune’s Advanced Kit, which includes just about everything needed. https://www.pangeareptile.com/collections/reptile-kits/products/advanced-chameleon-kit-by-neptune-the-chameleon She has a more basic kit as well to...

    Well, I think we all have our own preferences when it comes to things like this. I can tell you my opinion on the pros and cons of it. Pros: the feeders climb the screen and make themselves attractive moving targets for a chameleon. The way it is designed and the slick plastic inside make it...

    Hydration

    Ok. White is perfectly hydrated. The darker the urate, the more dehydrated your chameleon is…all dark orange is desperately dehydrated. It’s ok if one one end there is a bit of yellow or even orange as long as the majority is white or cream colored. The darker black/brown is the poo part. Urate...

    June 2026 Photo Contest

    Hoo boy! There’s no way in any reality that I can take a pic that can compete with those already entered. That’s never stopped me before though. ;) I’ve got a busy week ahead, but maybe I can find the time for a quick photo shoot. Maybe!

    Hydration

    What color are her urates? That is usually the best gauge of hydration status.

    Fan Air Duct for Glass Enclosure

    I do like the idea, however most just sit the fan on the top screen of the enclosure, pulling the air from inside to the outside.

    is my chameleon adapting okay?

    The initial set up for any reptile (any type of animal really) is usually quite expensive and chameleons can be at the high end. There are some ways to cut costs, but for many things there are no ways to compromise. All of my enclosures are bioactive, but I’ve always used the ReptiBreeze...

    I would suggest buying (or making your own) shooting gallery style feeding station. I’ve made my own versions of it a few times from various plastic food containers. I can’t recall if they came from a frozen meal or take out, but I washed it very well before making. You could probably use any...

    YBBB Chameleon!!

    Ah! You reminded me! Chameleons can be as addicitive as potato chips and it’s hard to have just one. ;)

    is my chameleon adapting okay?

    Mealworms aren’t the greatest staple feeder. Hornworms are wonderful hydrating treats that almost no reptile can refuse. I have a wild caught veiled who is slightly picky, but when he sees any type of wormy feeder, he is there! I’m attaching the feeder and gutloading graphics for you. Many of...

    YBBB Chameleon!!

    He’s gorgeous! You’ve already learned one of the most important things, and that’s to get your chameleon from a reputable breeder. I’m sure they have helped you with any questions and husbandry needs already. I would advise to get some silkworms from them and make them a part of your guy’s...
