    Any tip for chameleons would be helpful very new to them myself

    Read up on the care sheets, then start asking questions. We are generally pretty easy-going here on the forums and willing to help out and answer questions, but please do read those care sheets first. Good luck!

    Dimming thermostats

    I don't use them, but what about getting lightbulbs of different wattages? This way when temperatures rise outside you can just change out the bulbs to a lower wattage. Mine are all in a reptile room, and during the summer months I run the ceiling fan on low to help with the temperatures and...

    Languages

    I took French and Spanish in high school and still use quite a bit of Spanish between my two jobs. I can get along with my French, but it takes a bit for my brain to warm up to it. I am currently learning German through Duo Lingo and started working in a cardiology office so I also am learning...

    Soil & Gnats

    Another idea is to get a bag or 2 of ABG mix (Atlanta Botanical Garden) and mix it with the soil in your plants' pots. I do that because it's quick-draining and really helps with the gnats. Buy a Katchy as well, which was mentioned - they work very efficiently. I have mine set up on a little...

    Pardalis genetics project

    I really enjoyed the podcast episode and find this truly fascinating. It'll be great if you can incorporate the tests for parsons and Mellers, as well! Good luck!

    Conversation with my mom about holiday visits 😂

    I'm lucky too - both my mom and my mother-in-law like my chams. My mom always wants to watch me feed them and loves when they are out free-ranging on the lanai with her.

    Please help im worried

    You could also contact the vet ahead of time to see if they will email you their questionairre sheets to complete ahead of time. Also, I was just at Dr. Bruce's in late October and at that time they were only allowing 1 person in at a time so make sure that whatever you are bringing you cham...

    Please help im worried

    He's my vet too. I live in Naples so it's a 3 1/2 hour drive each way, but completely worth it. Just be prepared to know that he's no-nonsense but a wealth of information, so have all of the answers to his questions available (temps, lighting, food, humidity %, etc.). I just take pics of...

    How did YOU get into chameleon keeping?

    It's not a big deal to me at all. I've been on here for over a decade so don't want to change it now (my profile pic is of the first veiled I ever owned, and that was 3 generations ago, at least). I don't post nearly enough for it to matter. ;)

    How did YOU get into chameleon keeping?

    When I was in college (late 90s) I went to a pet store that had a free-ranging iguana. I was entranced, but knew I couldn't and shouldn't get one while in school. I started doing research (again, the EARLY days of the internet), and slowly realized how big these guys get. So, I thought, well...

    Chameleon Cage Lobby Set Up Suggestions

    I have to second the opinion to not do this. It's an unfair level of stress on the chameleon that is not needed. Also, you mention it's a clinic - is it a medical clinic? Are you planning on putting live plants in with it, if you do go through with this? I work in a hospital and we cannot...
