    I have some problem with my chameleon. Please help!

    What you are experiencing is quite normal IME with Veileds. They go through phases as they mature. Making sure that you have a feeder run or cup for them to eat from if they are not hand feeding is very important. it is important to know if he is not eating due to maturity or if he is not...

    Senegal chameleon

    Whether you use screen or glass is entirely dependent on the natural environment of the keeper and the husbandry they provide. There is not necessarily any one "way to go". Especially when taking different types of chameleons in to consideration as well. Plenty of keepers are very successful...

    Hello All, I am hoping to get some feedback on my current situation with a one month old clutch of baby (Ambil) Panthers Chameleons. Up to this point I have been housing this clutch since birth in the convention hatchling enclosure: tuber-ware bin with a maze of wooden stacks and many fake...

    Veiled Cham hiding all morning?

    Most petstore dont know anything about chameleons. He’s just scared of you. He think of you as a predator, someone who is going to eat him or hurt him. Shedding can cause then not to eat, it’s normal. As they mature as well there attitude will change and they’ll become territorial if there cage...

    Dalmatian like spots

    Ok, so you have some upgrades to make. You do have the coil uvb bulb which isn’t able to provide adequate uvb levels. You’ll need to get a linear T5 ho fixture with either a 5.0 or Arcadia brand 6% uvb bulb. It needs to be long enough to span the width of your enclosure...so 24”. Proper uvb is...

    What I need for a Panther Chameleon Setup

    There's a really good husbandry program at https://chameleonacademy.com/ A member here—Gingero—has a video series called Neptune the Chameleon that's also very good. And the Resources section on this site.

    Cage Info: Cage Type - It is a terrarium, glass, however the front part of the cage has a large rectangle screened part at the top facing you of the terrarium and at the back, and the top is also screened. We plan on purchasing a bigger, even more screened cage within a couple months. For now...

    Adult veiled chameleon found in my yard.

    Not to be rude, but this isn't all correct. The chameleon should not be fattened up. Saying to feed waxworms isn't a great idea. Avoiding mealworms, eh sure there's better feeders, but it's been mostly debunked a few times on here that they're any sort of real danger and are more nutritious...

    Is my panther a male or female?

    Some tips from one keeper to another... 1.) It is fine for right now, but you will for sure want to upgrade your cage to a bigger size within a few months. She will quickly out grow that cage. 2.) Get a linear uvb light, those spiral lights are no good. 3.) Get rid of the fake plants and add...

    Chameleon with multiple possible problems..

    I am replacing the compact uvb ASAP and have turned it off today to see if it’s the cause of him keeping his eyes closed and mostly having his one eye irritated. I will up the vitamins and the reason his food intake is higher than normal is because he is underweight and I am trying to gradual...

    I’ll put my feedback in red. :) Your Chameleon - The species, sex, and age of your chameleon. How long has it been in your care? I don’t have a definite answer on how old my girl is but if i had to estimate, maybe 1-2 months? Petsmart is awful about these sorts of things. I have had her for...

    Help needed

    Well the material for the background is foam, its the basic background that comes with exoterra tanks, its the cheap 1 foam like you get in shipping materials, with it carved and some paint lol. Yes a chameleon can 100% climb it, as well as easily shred it apart and stick their nails into it...
