There was a previous thread on this site somewhere (don't remember where or by who) that someone stated that most people own chameleons for about a year because that's how long it takes to kill one.
In most instances if it dies within a year it was improperly cared for or had lack of care...
So I woke up this morning and checked on my girlfriend, but she was GONE! just this monster stood in her wake!
Where did she go?? when will she be back?:)
You can... some say that pinkies are a great appetite inducer. They are however difficult for chams to digest because of all the bones and stuff. I would avoid them unless really necessary. He is still a bit young also.
Ha, nice. I am guessing your veiled won't eat them so you have to offer them to this poor guy.
Back to the question at hand... Is your cham tired of the foods you have been giving him or are you just gaining knowledge for the future?
Aww come on Julirs, i have just outgrown teenagdom and I don't think I was that bad. But to tell you the truth I don't think I would stand much of a fight to the wrath of a veiled...LOL. Luckily mines a little pussy cat so I am not afraid of him.

We Moved in with a friend of ours, and her son loves our chameleon, so she bought him one, we will take care of it, and we love every bit of it, came in the mail yesterday and is all set up now, he has a bit injured from the trip (his eye was really swollen) but now he looks great, with out...
Im so sorry, thats terrible, but dont give up! Now you have the information and all the friends you can ever ask for here and we will do what we can so this doesnt happen to anyone else!!
Julirs said it already but I wanted to make sure it stood out that you need a 10.0 instead of a 5.0 because of the type of cage that you chose. The flexariums have thicker mesh and allows only half of the light being emmited to pass through. It's safer for your cham's sake.
Do you have a wal...
