    Anyone tried a curio cabinet as an enclosure?

    I think the common metal rectangle cham cage is functional, but aesthetically boring, so I was trying to come up with clever ways to make a tall, well ventilated, beautifully lit enclosure that wouldn't look like complete garbage in my apartment (I am TERRIBLE at construction) when I realized...

    Alaska Advice Anyone?

    Good evening! I'm a cham enthusiast and I just moved out to Girdwood, AK. Naturally, I left all my herps at home in CO (four veileds, ball python, and a juvenile caiman) until I figured out how living out here was going to work out. Girdwood is a pretty tiny town about an hour south of...

    Mbd bad

    My male veiled cham has terrible MBD. I know this takes weeks or months to develop, but it honestly seems to have developed overnight. A few days ago he was chasing crickets all over the cage, now he can't even hold himself up or move in any direction. He lives in a 18x18x30 wire mesh cage...

    Show off your old chams!

    There are tons of threads here about baby chams, but I couldn't find any pic-heavy threads with very old ones. I've seen people claim they have panthers and veileds that were 7+ years old - let's see em!

    Mating Pair of Veileds PLUS enclosures: $200

    Pix you may notice i'm better at taking care of chameleons than i am of ficus plants. :) everything you see here is included. and the chams are in excellent health. I got them at the Reptile Super Show in L.A., and they've been nothing short of spectacularly healthy. Very impressed. in...

    Pregnant again?

    My 1 year old veiled laid 43 eggs in december. since then her and the male have been seperate, but she's recently gotten huge and she's doing that not-eating thing again. could she be pregnant again? i've read about "reciprocal sperm" getting chams that haven't mated pregnant again in a short...

    Eggs!!!

    we started out on a budget because we had just moved to the USA. now we're a little better off. i think we could handle raising the offspring, but i don't think it's what we'll be doing, as most of them will be gifts. having another 43 mouths to feed was actually a surprise. when we started...

    Moldy Eggs?

    from what i've gathered here, my veiled cham eggs should be kept at roughly 68-74 degrees and at 95%+ humidity, but when i ran a search about mold problems, most of the advice is to dry them out. can anyone clarify this for me?

    Eggs!!!

    While we've been keeping our chams almost entirely on a budget (i.e. in bird cages with poked-hole drippers, $5 Wal-Mart money trees, and lighting systems completely supplied by Lowe's) our veileds, Kraken and Keallach, which we've raised almost entirely on the collective wisdom of this forum...

    What's your cham's name...

    K's only my wife and i have had this habbit of naming all our stuff with K names. our car is Kamilla. our male veiled is Keallach (irish gaelic for "warrior") and our female is "Kracken", like the monster because, well, she's a monster.

    Lost Cham Stopped Eating

    i take my male and female 6-month-old-chams for walks outside when it's nice. basically, i just put them in the yard. of course, 3 days ago my male got up a tree quicker than i could catch him. for 2 days we searched for him with no results. finally, on the night of the 3rd day we found him...

    Eating Dirt?

    how to use the word "calcium" 20 times in 5 seconds: if the crickets are gut-loaded with Fluker's High-Calcium Cricket Feed and dusted a couple times a month with RepCal Calcium with D3, do i still need to suppliment Keallach with more (no D3) calcium? wouldn't gut-loaded calcium + frequent...

    My Chameleon/Terrarium Enclosure

    i kept a veiled in a full 90 gallon aquarium for YEARS. half the aquarium was water! there was a small beach for the turtles (there were 4: 2 red-ears, a spotted, and a snapper) and the snakes (2 eastern water snakes) and the rest of the tank was hanging fake plants. there was a school of...

    Building a bigger enclosure

    it's more of a cheap fix than a master-enclosure. sorry for the crude drawing. it's wicked sturdy though. and WAY less than the pet store versions or a full-blown project. i just recommnded it to help out the average guy on a budget. when all they need is a tree, lights, and food, spending...
