It surprised me more than anything but I'm not going to say it doesn't hurt a little. They definately have teeth and thier jaw closes pretty hard in my opinion (for a small creature anyway). He bit me through a towel that I decided to use because he was so upset. I still felt his teeth through...

Veiled Chameleon (Chamaeleo calyptratus)

Yeah, the first time Moe really fired up is when I woke him up to get him downstairs during a tornado warning. I will never do that again, he actually bit me. I guess chams are not happy critters when awakened. He would get an attitude every now and then but that is the very first time I had...

I learned a valuable lesson the other night. Sitting out hurrican Irene and had a tornado warning. Everybody and every critter was taken to the safest place in the house and only Moe was left, who was asleep. I woke him in attempt to take him out of his cage and put him in a carrier. Well, he...

Thank you.

I'm guessing with no reply that he is at a fine size for his age or maybe it isn't the length that matters? I just want to make sure he is on the right track.

I'm not sure of how much he weighs honestly. I did take some quick pictures today. It has been raining and he wasn't exactly thrilled about the pictures but since we had a break in the rain I broke out the tape measurer and proceeded to take pictures. I'm pretty positive he still has growing to...

I'll take one tomorrow during the day. He has spent most of spring and all of summer outside. He is still outside so I need to wait for the daylight. I'll see what kind of mood he is in as well.

I was curious to how big approximately my chameleon should be right now. I'm estimating him to be 8 months, give or take a month. Bought him at a pet store so not sure when exactly he was born. He is a veiled chameleon. Also, what is the correct way to measure him? Do you include the tail or no...

The cage in the link is the one I have for Moe. You can leave a couple of screws out so that the bottom can flip open for drip tray removal ( I just have the flooring that came with the cage). Otherwise, the bottom portion doesn't open. It may not be exactly what you are looking for but I like...

Actually, it looks like somebody else already posted something like this. I guess that's what I get for not reading the other posts first. I'll leave it up in case somebody has something else to add but it looks like it is fine to feed them to chameleons.

I have tons of Microcentrum Rhombifolium or Katydids around my lights at night. They are the grasshoppers that look like green leaves wihen they are just sitting there. Has anybody ever collected these and fed them to thier chameleon? I got the idea last night after seeing them that I could...

Moses A.K.A. Moe at 6-7 months. Everybody's cham's look so nice. I enjoy seeing the different colors and species. They all seem so unique. Not one is the same.
