Thank you so much for posting this. As a multi-pet family, I am a member of several animal/breed oriented sites and missed this one. considering we have a bunny and parrot, these recalls are very frightening. Thank you again. Please continue to post any that you come across !!

Get real plants. A hand mister, (spray bottle) Also go look at some of the sites that sell kits, to get an idea of what you will need. Vitamins and mineral supplements for dusting crickets, cricket food...

When Butter was a baby, it was like he would burst from his shed ! Now, at 6 months, it takes longer.

I try to get him to walk onto a branch. If this is unsucessful (I'm about 50/50) then I grab him the way you grab a bird. Gently but firmly, holding the body, with the head out, but with a finger and thumb high on the neck so he can't turn his head and bite you. I do this when I have to...

Very handsome guy. Love his coloring.

Butter will not eat or go near anything red. I left some skin on a bit of apple, and he went on a food strike for three days. He also will not eat carrots or sweet potato. He loves his dark greens, slivered apple, slivers of zuchinni, green beans, and sliced grape. I would imagine he would...

I am sorry to hear of both of your losses. It is never easy to lose people that are close to us, and it is especially difficult when, in our mid 20's losing people we love and care about starts in truth. Keeping in touch, and being the best friend ( or son or daughter, niece or nephew....)...

In order for someone to give you some good advice, you need to give us some more info. Like, how old is your cham, what kind and size cage is he/she in, what lighting are you using, what are the average temps in the cage, what kind of vitamins are you using, and how often, what is your misting...

In the late summer, I potted a smallish ficus and put it next to my cham's cage, as a "just in case" I need it later this winter.... good thing I did, as one of my ficus in the cage died. Even though I'm in California indoor plants can be hard to find in the winter. This spring, I'm going to...

Personally, I picked a veiled because of where I live. I'm in the high desert, and wanted to keep my chameleon in the living room. Ihave high ceilings, and there is no way to keep the humidity up as high as I would think a panther would do well at. I also knew that an automatic misting...

You don't need to have anything on the bottom of the cage, however if you have a female, you will need a container for her to lay eggs.

Is there any reason you are not feeding crickets ? What is your lighting like ? how ofetn are you misting ?

My veiled is a "secret drinker" -- I have had him 6 months and only just two days ago ever saw him drink !!!! Do you mist with warm water ? Butter hates nice warm water less. But then again, Butter hates just about everything, just like a healthy cham is supposed to.

I had an Iguana way back in the 1970s. I bought him as a little green baby, and ended up with a very very big dinosaur that lived on our patio. Lucky for me, I was in high school, and my parents were very open to critters. We built him an enclousure on our covered patio. (So. California...

He is a veiled. He is 6 months old, and maybe come summer, I will figure out how to work the extra foot in height into my living room. Problem being, that I have 2 big dogs, that are used to plants on tables...and I've so far been able to convince them that the chameleon cage is just a "plant...

I just put Butter in his new cage. I got him a 24x24x36. Even though he was in an 18x18x36 this just seems so much bigger !!!! I have both the schiffelara and the ficus in there and a small pathos on the bottom. Altho, Butter never has even visited the bottom 12 inches of his cage. I...

I have fruit trees in my garden, and grapes. I have dried branches each year for various things, and have a good supply of them. Because I am basically an organic gardener (use soap sprays when needed, but no chemical killers) I know what is on my branches. I dry branches in the sun, and then...

Butter only eats his greens/fruit if it's in his bowl !!! I've tried sticking it on a branch, and it freaked him out !!! Silly Lizard. I haven't tried grapes, but I will today !!!

Brad, It sure could have been a jackson --- what I remembered most were the oven mitt hands. This pet store was more of a mini zoo. Most of the critters were not for sale. I asked my (81 year old) dad about it after reading your post, and he recalled the pet store. He remembered...
