I have a tub set at the bottom of my chameleons cage and he will not eat out of it....i cant let the crickets run loose though because they escape the cage...any suggestions?

He is actually back to a normal color now, i will try to send setup photos when i get home but since i checked him 40 minutes after this initial post he has returnes to a satisfactory green tint

But he didnt look that way until i put him in there, then he basked and black is a normal color for that so i guess we'll see

But that is typical since i just put him in a new cage and he was just shipped to me from ups i would assume

Just needing some help figuring out this color scheme. My jacksons cham just came in today and he has been nearly completely black since i put him in the cage, the temperaturesin the cage are perfect, anout 82 in the basking spot and 70 towards the bottom, i know it isnt cold in there so i dont...

Hello all chameleon keepers and enthusiasts, i would like to know what plants are suggested for use in bioactive (or non bioactive) chameleon setups, i will be purchasing a bioactive kit from the bio dude after all my dragonstrand equipment comes in and i will be recieving a ficus tree along...

So since the extending parts of a schefflera aren't very large are they not a good chameleon plant? I've heard lots of people use them and that's what i use but havent gotten my chameleon yet, skills i go with a pothos and something else instead?

As long as you have a good drainage system the eco earth will be fine from what i have read, a more semi moist substrate is better anyway to help maintain humidity

Great, i think i will try the dry option of eco earth for him as well, i use the most expandable bricks in the chameleon enclosure. I think this will work well...i would love to always do a bioactive enclosure for every animal i own but i just don't have the time to prepare the enclosure or the...

I already gutload my insects, its only a 24 hr process in general because that is all ive read that is required, but maybe for mealworms it is different. i use both a fogger and a mister from zoo med but i am about to recieve a high quality mistking and will be replacing the zoo med with that...

Really??? So for seven years ive had my leopard on the wrong subsrate...ive read many posts and pages about people using sand because it made for a more natural feel. Also when you use an undertank heater they said it "heats up the sand". I just concluded that this calcium sand was a good...

Is that the standard jacksons chameleon? Is usually hard to find the dwarf or the merumontanus, but i just bought a regular jacksonii from fl chams if that is what youre looking for

Hello everyone, I am a new chameleon owner in a few days and my first one will be a jacksons chameleon. I have so many questions my head is about to explode, ive read several books and done my research and i am not concerned about starting out with a xanth. What i am concerned with is the soil...

I have also read many books on chameleons that say eco earth is a fine substrate because it is ground coconut fiber, but this concern with the soil ive never heard of

Is the worry about impaction from soil or eco earth honestly a real thing? Where these animals come from this is what they are used to...dirt, moist dirt. Its a natural habitat. People say not to use fine sand for leopard geckos either but i have had mine for seven years and all i use is sand...
