    New Chameleon Owner

    You have a male veiled, I’m not good with ages, so hopefully someone else can chime in on that. If he is around 3 months, he needs 1/4” or smaller feeders. You’ll feed him as much as he’ll eat two times a day. The link I posted in your other thread has all of the latest and accurate info

    Chameleon pulled out her claw and is now sleeping at the bottom of the cage please help!

    Cage Info: Cage Type - screen, 16x16x30in This is too small, the bare minimum is either 36”x18”x36” tall or 2’x2’x4’ tall for a veiled, but the recommended size is 4’x2’x4’ tall or bigger! Bigger is always better, so go as big as you can! You need to take out the reptile carpet (you need a bare...

    Chameleon pulled out her claw and is now sleeping at the bottom of the cage please help!

    Give me some time, and I can go over your husbandry and add helpful links and care images. Is she moving/can she grip a branch/anything like that?

    Brand new male Veiled. How can I help him de-stress?

    This is a good one (you might have to play around with the wattage, I’d start at 40 or 60 watt), as plain incandescent bulbs aren’t available in some states at hardware stores anymore: https://exo-terra.com/products/lighting/heat-lamps/daytime-heat-lamp-60w/ Also, I’d think about replacing the...

    New panther chameleon owner

    You’re doing a GREAT job!! I’ve just got a few tweaks and info for you: I’ve attached a gutload chart below in case you’re not sure what to feed the crickets. Also, avoid getting crickets from places like Petsmart, Petco, Pet Supplies Plus, etc (any big chain pet store), as they have higher...

    New baby panther

    As long as there is enough airflow in and out of the closet so there is constant fresh air it should be fine. You can purchase her adult cage now no problem! You’ll just have to replace her branches to ones with bigger diameters as she grows

    Brand new male Veiled. How can I help him de-stress?

    Congrats on getting your cham! Three other things, as everyone has covered everything else: -The heat bulb (replace with a plain white incandescent light bulb) needs to be a minimum of 9”+ away from the basking branch, nothing closer (the plastic plant- needs to be replaced with a real veiled...

    Help!! Mel isn't doing well...

    @Gloriawood awesome job! @noahrg4 make sure your calcium without D3 is also phosphorus free! That’s very important as feeders are high in phosphorus, so we use calcium to help balance that ratio. A couple more things are the two trusted uvb brands are Arcadia and Zoo Med. If possible, get the...

    PLEASE HELP! Eyes closed. Crusted and already saw a vet!

    Welcome on here! You’ve got almost everything covered by these great keepers! The only thing I’ll add is that his uvb needs to be replaced with a different brand fixture and bulb, as ReptiZoo doesn’t have good bulbs or fixtures. If possible, get the Arcadia ProT5 uvb kit with the 6% Arcadia uvb...

    Leon

    Looks great, and I’m glad Leon loves his new uvb! Just remember to switch out his basking branch, too. Also, when putting the new vines in, don’t attach them to the ceiling of cage, just on the sides and onto/through other structures in the cage. Leon sounds like a handful 🤣, at least he’s cute!
