It is often recommended that Chameleons should be provided a cage with very specific temperature and humidity requirements.
As a scientist, I was rather curious as to what the temperatures would be, if he was actually living in the wild on the island of Madagascar.
Since I live in North...
First off, I am the person that got everyone all upset because I introduced my cham to our cats. HOWEVER, I KNEW WHAT I WAS DOING!
When I tell people to hold their finger in front of their cham, just a little higher than their nose, and hold absolutly steady for five minutes, I am telling...
I am going to sleep tonight, with one heck of a grin of my face.
Thanks friend, you made me laugh so hard....
QUESTION: What did the American General at Bastone say to the Germans when they were asked to surrender?
Chris, your reply was outstanding and must require a detailed reply. It is late tonight, so anything I would say would sound rather stupid.
Rest assured, if you are willing, each item that you mentioned should and must be responded to.
In actuallity, you and I do share many simular views...
My wife and I had a Puffer fish that we loved, but he required hand feeding.
Since we travel to Cozumel Mexico every year for scuba diving, he required someone to feed him. Such a simple task, but we could not find anyone willing to feed this fish for those two weeks. Of course, if you did...
While in New Mexico, we had a horse ranch. I purchased a lovely Saddlebread horse at a rather low cost.
She was mean and every cowboy in the area was absolutly terrified of her. If you ever tried to force her to do something she did not want, you would get bucked.
Sunny and I fell in...
I was so upset about this subject on Friday, that I had to think about everything you and others had said. It took me a long time to clarify exactly why the comments had upset me so much.
I am not someone new, that has never cared for animals before. Although this specific species of...
Thank you for not calling me an idiot, since Mr. Lips is safe and sound tonight because of my cat training.
I have been teaching diverse critters how to get along with each other, for well over 40 years now. It is amazing how critters will protect each other, once they are part of the...
This weekend, I was telling you and others how I have been teaching my young (5 month old) cham how to trust and not fear humans. He is doing fantastic and I am so darn proud of him.
Some people got upset because I was training my cats that he was not food, but a valuable member of our...
I absolutly agree with you, and this is not something I would recommend that anyone else attemp. Even with my close supervision, Mr. Lips can only be on their back, where a cat can not reach him.
Mr. Lips was obtained for my wife's birthday. Instead of being thrilled, she got upset because...
Taming the wild lizard was the easy part.
Teaching my two cats to allow him to crawl on their backs, will take a little longer. :p
They have already accepted Mr. Lips as a member of the family, so he is now safe around them. However, having him on their back does creep out the poor cats...
This thread was about sleeping and I did not intend to change the subject. Mr. Lips had been sleeping on my hand for two hours last night, when I read the question.
As for the lights, it does not seem to bother Mr. Lips. When he gets tired, he will sleep, even if he is on my hand.
His...
