So a couple weeks ago, we switched from letting the crickets free roam in the cage at feeding time to cup feeding in an effort to gain her trust. Well today, Charlie finally let me hold the cup while she eats! She usually just waits until we attach the cup to the cage, but she was lenient today...

Okay, I see. Thank you! Very informative!

Well I didn't say it was flat out not enough airflow, I said it might be. Everything I've heard and read has said all glass or mostly glass enclosures raise the risk of RIs. If they only have the top of the cage screen, how can the chameleon get the proper airflow for their health? Sure, it...

Just realized I never posted the pic of Charlie’s newly decorated cage. She has many more walkways, which are hidden by dense foliage, lots of places to hide, and a new drainage system that cuts out excess moisture. I’m quite pleased with how it turned out, and I think she likes it too! The...

She does love her crickets.... haha

Ahaha this one made me laugh! She was definitely grumpy about being taken from her cage, and she’s sassy 24/7, so I could totally see this!

Shenanigans with Charlie. Took this picture and it looks like she was guiltily opening up a package! Thought it was cute haha. I put her in this box while I cleaned and redid her cage and she is quite the escape artist. She didn’t make it past this point though.

Thanks for the tips everyone! I ended up using zip ties and they worked wonderfully! I’ll post a pic of Charlie’s fixed-up cage in a bit!

Yeah, I've been using twist ties for the vines and plants, but I wasn't sure about the walkways. I'll look into using zip ties, and if they don't work, maybe I'll go for the holes. Thanks!

That might not be enough airflow for your cham. They usually need more than just one side screen, and a tall enclosure too, not wide. Thanks for your suggestions though!

Hi all! I have a 16x16x30 screen cage for Charlie. (Small, I know, but so is she right now!) I’m looking to add more walkways and fun stuff inside her enclosure. How do you guys keep the dowels and wooden sticks attached so they don’t fall? I’m having difficulty with this. Do you just like...

Also here’s a pic of our set up. The lights rest right on top of the enclosure, so I’m reluctant to add more walkways towards the top. I don’t want her to get burned. (Also, I know this isn’t the recommended UVB light, that the tube light is better, and we’re working on it. Until we can get the...

The first pic of her on a hand is from a few days ago. We were adjusting the accessories in her cage and had to take her out and she was NOT happy. The rest are from today. The one where she's really dark shows how wide she is--as you can she, she's pretty thin (not unhealthy, just not looking...

Here are some pics:

No, no big girl colors yet. I will post pictures right now.

Understood, I did something similar my first time around. Only the staff can delete. What you can do is edit all the info out on the posts that shouldn’t be there and change the titles to say something like duplicate post. Welcome to the forums!

I can’t help you because I’m new to the Cham community and have a veiled, but you have posted this three times, which is counterproductive. I know you’re worried, but having three posts will only get you confusing responses. Edit two of them to say duplicate so people are only responding on one...

We mist for 3-4 minutes at a time, 3-4 times a day. Going to work on increasing this to help her hydration. No gaping. No popping noises.

Oops, most of your points are oversights on my part in my typing. I apologize. Forgot to include that I use the D3. I know that it isn't part of the multi and I don't assume that it is. But in my mind, I just lump them together. I use the D3. I mist for 3 to 4 minutes, 3-4 times a day. I will...
