Thanks! So much good advice here.

I have an 18x18x36. So eventually I'll need to get the big one. I think I have time to save up and shop around. I already have a scheflerra in there but it does not set up real high. I may need to set it on something. And I did scrub and bake 3 sticks from outside, and sanded them a bit.. I got...

ok.. whew!! I have already started moving things around to make room for that eventual mammoth sized cage 🤪 getting rid of a bookcase and cleaning out crap! I do have her basking lamp setting on a wire rack on top and watch the temp there close.. it's been a steady 81 up there on her stick. I...

ok good! I got her bin ready anyways.. just foe future.

how much time do I have?

so the Reptisun Terrarium Hood with a T5 HO high output with a Reptisun 5.0 UVB lamp is not sufficient? my husband said he should have just gotten me a box of chocolates when I told him I need a much bigger enclosure. I'll have to see what I can do.

I have only had my set up with my new little veiled chameleon girl for a week and a half. My husband got her for me as a wonderful surprise for Valentine'a day. I've always wanted a chameleon but never thought I'd actually be able to get one. All that to say, I ended up quickly just getting a...

She ate 6 crickets this morning. 😊 but only after the bigger ones had jumped off the feeder and started climbing around in the cage on the screens and plants, then she went after them!

Hi, here are a couple more. She was a good girl and ate 6 crickets this morning. I put up a new stick for her to climb on, because she has been climbing on the screens a lot, probably because she doesn't like me messing in her cage with plants and such. This afternoon I came home and she...

she turned this color once, but I thunk she was scared of me messing with the dripper. And she gets a speckled stripped pattern when she's roaming around at the bottom, but it's too dark down there to get a picture.

ok.. first thing tomorrow I'm going out to get some sand and a bigger box. I have one pothos vine with roots.. I'm gonna put that in a little bit of the actual dirt so it grows good, then plant that in the sand. I do think she is actually hungry, because she was going after a stinkbug which was...

and is a 12"×6" box big enough or do I need to go get a bigger one?

Vikki, is this ok to use for an egg laying box? or do I need to mix it with sand?

😲 well. I am just now reading the link about egg laying. I had no idea that she might be close, but she is probably showing signs. I am going to have to get some sand and organic soil and make her a laying box!

really?? I had no idea. So could she possibly be looking for a place to lay eggs? Because for the past 2 days she has been roaming all over the bottom of the cage.

great idea about the greens. I'm learning a lot. thanks!!

Thank you! I'm going to give this a try before I really start to worry. She is 6 months old, so I guess this is still considered a baby?

Well I hope she does not have a parasite. I think there is a vet in this area that does reptiles, I'll have to call them. Maybe I'll try moving the feeder down.

thanks Vikki, I am filling out the husbandry right now.

First off, I am so glad to find you all. I am new and learning so much. I've had my female veiled chameleon for just a little over a week. The first day I fed her she ate 3 small crickets out of the homemade half gallon milk jug feeder hung on the side of the cage, plus two that had escaped and...
