Yeah I was going to say you could try to find a "babysitter" for him to just come and check in once a day, leave food, etc while you're away. I have a cham who HATES the carrier and is still pissed at me from moving her three months ago 😂 It really depends on their personality but I don't think...
What a cutie! People usually recommend a 2x2x4 foot screen enclosure for a male, slightly smaller for a female. Personally I have a female and she still has a 2x2x4 because I figure the more space the better and she's pretty active! I have a zoo med, I would recommend Zoo Med, ExoTerra, or...
Not yet. She is receptive I think (yellow spots). When she first developed them I took her to the vet and they did an x-ray. They were just follicles and not eggs yet. This was at the beginning of December ish. She has a lay bin in there all ready for her and she’s looked at it some but never...
I have been looking into more plants to get for my veiled. Everything I look at says their chameleons love eating plants, especially pothos. My cham has 2 pothos, ficus, and ivy and she never eats them at all. Is this bad? Also, I believe the ivy I have was misidentified as grape ivy but is...
Live plats are awesome!! I would also suggest supporting small pet businesses on sites like etsy. I got my cham a very cool stick-and-rope bridge thingy that was made for birds originally but that she's obsessed with -- nice wide gaps in the rungs for her to exercise. The primary thing to...
This might sound weird, but try to see if it is a specific thing that she is afraid of (ex. your hands, your face, bright colors). I've been doing a lot of reading on animal behavior and animals can start to make negative associations with very specific things. (There is an anecdote in Temple...
Thank you so much! I will see if I can get it all plugged up. By blowing I mean that it kind if spews out mist. I will try the water bucket and sealing it first and then see if another plant will help. Thanks again!!
It's about time I do another review anyway, I haven't done one since 3 days after I got her in August :)

Thanks so much! Yeah, the enclosure is in plastic wrap on 3 sides. All plants are live, I have 2 pothos, a ficus, and a grape ivy (the ivy safe for chams, not english ivy). Before she was in my basement which although it was finished had nighttime temps in the high 30s/low 40s. She is now in my...
