Hello out there my fellow chameleon keepers and enthusiasts! I've been silently reading as many posts here as possible to be as well informed as possible about my new little friend. I've always wanted a chameleon and came across one who stole my heart a few months ago. so, I made the leap and...

yes I plan to have my enclosure set up at least 2 days before the cham arrives. https://www.flchams.com/chameleon/premium-naval-bloodline-baby-veiled-chameleons-for-sale/ this cham (from fl chams) says delivered to your door by ups. is that unusual or does it mean to the local hub?

I know I'm new and need to improve my husbandry, that's why I said it would be in the distant future. saying that I've already thrown out most of my stupid ideas and in the past couple days have greatly improved his cage, I didn't realize the sticks are to close together I will absolutely fix...

Hi im Ethan I recently bought a 3/4 month closer to 4 months old panther chameleon on sunday from a reptile expo. I have a 2x2x4 cage and plenty of live plants everything you'd need for the perfect home. The only issue is this little guy hasn't ate since bringing home. Idk how to introduce food...

Your Chameleon - Male Panther Chameleon, 14 months old. I've had him for 10 months. Handling - Never, working to get him comfortable. He will put his legs on my hand if approached slowly. Feeding - Primary: dubia roaches- 5-8 medium/large 3x per week, gut loaded with a variety of fresh veggies...

This will be my last post in your thread. Honestly I do not feel like you want feedback. I was not once rude to you. I was pointing out a potential issue. You are new to the hobby.... No they do not need UVB 24/7. 12 hours of lights on only. BUT if a chameleon is given the opportunity for an...

I've not any experience with females so I'll tag resident Girl Chameleon Master @MissSkittles To me, she looks rather round in those last two photos. I also notice she's seen a fair share of burns in the past, namely at the top of her casque, and her back spikes. It's really helpful to fill...

Sorry for the late response, been busy. I actually covered her with a sheet to give her that privacy. I will try that trash bag method since it will also keep the humidity better… I did do Saran Wrap on Ollie’s cage and it worked like a charm for humidity control. Been thinking about doing that...

Chameleon Info: Your Chameleon - Veiled, Male, adopted at around 4 months old in November 2025. He’s 10 months now. I adopted him with NSHP (MBD). I am a 3rd year vet student and already had bloodwork done in December and his ionized calcium was normal after 1 month in my care. Handling -...

UGHH. That makes sense.

Well I believe I know why he is pacing.... There are a few things that stand out. 1. some chams do not do well with glass enclosures. They can see their reflection and it puts them on edge thinking another cham is in the cage with them. 2. Not enough branches, While your set up is pretty he...

Jeremy, There needs to be some middle ground between not acknowledging the dangers of feeder insects and having a chameleon and stick insects co-habitation in a large enclosure - that is obviously large enough to grow enough of a bramble to support multiple walking sticks. You have been here way...

Okay I js got this little explorer around 2ish days ago from Petco. I did research b4 hand but went to Petco and they pretty made me feel confirmed and confident. They ended up getting me to buy the starter kit (and I now know why it’s called the death kit). I’ve made some urgent changes after...

I am a firm believer in not stealing... This is not a route you want to take. But I could delete this thread you made and then you could give her the forum to come here and get help. Then she will not see your thread about her. Also you could give her chameleon academy site and neptune the...

He’s a juvenile please give him up to 25 crickets daily

Just clarifying. The cup one I hold on to while they eat out of it, so I'm watching them. The bowl I toss out and make a new one if it shows any wear, and I hand mist so it never gets wet. This is a very valid point, the tape won't hold up to the moisture; and something to keep in mind, if...

It is not the best thing to have to deal with. Some develop cancer as well. It can shorten their lifespan. But if it is this virus then it is not caused by husbandry or anything you would have done. It often goes unnoticed until they get larger. Note eventually when she does come to the end of...

I like the idea of the two cages together. I actually had already seen a few people do it, but unfortunately my current house doesn’t have enough space for that. I am planning on buying a home that will have more space, but that’s probably a few years in the future. Which I also don’t know when...

Welcome to the forum. If you are looking at buying a kit then I would recommend one of Neptune the Chameleon's kits. the advanced kit comes with more stuff that will be beneficial...

Chami! 😍🤣 The females are known to be much sassier than the males. It sounds much like Ollie's set up; so I'd recommend much of the same I did for him in your previous post. Except there are some slight changes you'll need to make, because it's female. But, first I want to show you some ways...
