Well his name is Herb. I just read somewhere that too big of a cage could be a bad thing for a youngster. He is only about 4 inches long right now. How long do they take to reach their mature length?

I have tried to handle him around 3 times a week- I used to transport him to different plants around the house for some variety since his cage isn't the biggest right now (24x18x20) - he also could eat the flies that were buzzing around then. He is only 6 months so he hasn't outgrown it yet. A...

I have never found cheap hissing cockroaches. Another good roach type I have heard of is lobster cockroaches. I think they might be a little more available than other kinds. A benefit is that they also do not infest, and that is definately an added bonus.

This problem is solved. He ate for a couple days and then went on another span of not eating for two weeks- thought he was going to die, but now he is eating voraciously. I give him up to 20 crickets a day and there are only 1 or 2 left by night. Nothing changed with the enclosure, moisture or...

Hi, I own a veiled Cham. I was having some issues with him not eating often, but that is solved now. When he wasn't eating that often, I could take him out and move him around no problem. Now that he is bigger and eating (this is about 2days after I last held him) he is hard to take out. I don't...

Yay! Herb started eating again! It was close to 2 weeks without eating anything, but now his appetite has come back! He is literally nothing but skin and bones right now, but he has been eating around 8-12 small crickets a day for three days now. He is also stronger and moving around more...

For the swimming part I didn't see him get into it. I just found him floating around in it. When I took him out he tried to go back in. I put a screen on the top though because I do no want him to get stuck. He is still drinking and looks hydrated. I have seen him drinking- I have a little...

Not eating problem as well My guys isn't eating. I posted on the wierd shedding behavior, but his shed is pretty much off now. He is still active and healthy looking- he just isn't eating at all. I tried wax worms and crickets which he loves. I have seen him poop and it looks normal so I don't...

Ok...he hasn't eaten yet but he is crawling around the cage now. Most of the shed is off now and it is just on his head (not around his eyes) and his belly yet. It is pure white and I think it is just hanging there. Hopefully he will eat tom

Update: Did not eat at all today, but drank when I misted him. He is still active and there is skin hanging off in a couple spots. He is more concerned with hiding than basking today

Hi- another question on my new guy- the past two days he has been not eating as much as usual. I looked tonight and found him in a plastic bowl I have near the bottom of the enclosure (it is still up about 3 inches) He is still active though and is moving around a lot. He is usually sleeping...

I have heard that the fogging machines do not work that well. Chameleons like to drink water droplets and a lot of those have so fine of mist that the big water droplets don't form. If you do that and some kind of a dripper I think it would work. Drippers cost less than $10.

Hello, I just purchased a male veiled 14 weeks old. I am a first time cham. owner. I own a snake and have owned other lizards in the past. I would like to get my guy to eat silkworms, any suggestions? I put some in there (they are about 1 inch long now) and he just watched them move. I...
