@Charms

@jannb knows lots of rescues and where to get responsibility bred veileds, so hopefully she can help out! You can also check the chameleons for sale and the chameleon rehoming sections in the chameleons classified forum on here if you’re set on adopting. If you’re not comfortable with shipping...

You are correct, blue lights are not safe. I’d see if you can return it to buy another one that is safe when put on a timer

How far away is each bulb from his basking branch? I’d double check what you have in there with the veiled tested plants on the Chameleon Academy's plant list. Veiled are notorious for eating anything, so you want to make sure you’re only using plants that have been proven safe for veileds...

Welcome on here! I love your username, by the way! What species of chameleon do you have? Edit: never mind, saw it! I’ll go through what you have posted, just give me a sec

Will do! Didn’t see you had posted until I was almost done

Sadly reptile stores rarely know proper cham care and/or are looking for more sales. You can keep the bamboo structure in! Just fill it in with safe branches and vines instead of the bamboo you’re currently using as branches inside of it, and you’ll be good to go! If you do sand the bamboo for...

Sorry for beating you @Beman , I’ve been working on this for the last hour haha

Cage Info: • Cage Type - Describe your cage (Glass, Screen, Combo?) What are the dimensions? Screen cage dimensions: 18x18x36 This is fine for now, but as she grows, she’ll need a bigger cage. The minimum size for female panthers is either 2’x2’x4’ tall or 36”x18”x36” tall, but the recommended...

Hi there, and welcome! Like @GrannyK said, you are not an idiot! We all start somewhere and learn from there; as long as you want to give your cham their best life possible and are always willing to learn and improve, that’s what matters! There’s a decent amount of info coming below, and I know...

No problem at all, thank you being receptive to it! Definitely make an appointment. It’s good to know either way

You’re all good, no worries! That’s awesome of y’all, just be careful! And if there are no rescues there, and you decide to go with a breeder there, make sure they’re reputable first. Infections, parasites, and genetics that can cause fatal issues earlier in life are all options with rescues...

Unwrapping one or two sides should help. If it’s still in the mid/high 60s to the 70s in humidity, you can add a whole room dehumidifier to the room, just not near his He’s so handsome, by the way!! 😍 I’m no expert in poop, so I’ll tag some keepers who are, but I’d get a fresh fecal tested, it...

I love that! I’ve posted the husbandry form below, just copy and paste the form in your reply, and fill it in! Of course we need a baby chameleon picture tax, and a pic of his entire enclosure (lights to bottom), would be greatly appreciated, as well! Are you measuring his basking area with a...

Congrats, and welcome to the chamily! Everyone’s got you covered, but I do want to ask if he’s gaping only under the heat lamp, and if he’s gaped since you moved it higher? Like already mentioned, a husbandry review never hurts, plus we’d love to see the little bugger and his cage! Let us know...

You’ll want to make sure the basking branch is at least 9”+ away from the heat bulb to help prevent burns. Window sounds good! If possible, you can drop the nighttime temps even lower, 15-18*C is preferred. A real easy way to drop humidity for your set up is taking the plastic wrapping off one...

No problem, we’re here to help! You’ll want to move either the top branch and/or the uvb fixture so that the distance from uvb bulb to branch is 8-9” away. How far away is his heat bulb from his basking branch? As long as his cage isn’t next to the window (and that the window doesn’t make your...

Cage Type - 2x2x4 mesh cage but I’ve wrapped 3 sides with plastic Great! Bamboo poles are very slippery and are only one size in diameter, so they need to be replaced with wood branches (oak, manzanita, crepe myrtle, hardwoods/branches from non-toxic and non-sap-producing trees, etc) of varying...

Happy birthday @bellaNS ! I hope you have a wonderful day!

Aww, I love that they’re getting along! And while fierce (those darn leaves 🤣, squirrels, neighbors, and delivery people won’t get away with anything), they’re so cute! Spike is definitely in good hands! Give them each a treat and/or pet from me!
