If your shaking them around in a cup i guess it could be possible to hurt them. I use a bag- and never have that problem. it really doesn't take much shaking to get them coated with the vitamin powder. When I use cricket keeper tubes i just turn them end over end a few times very gently.

yeah that stuff rocks- I always have some on hand. my anole loves the stuff- I give him .1cc like every month or so and he just can't get enough! (vet said it was okay) He's really big and healthy. can't get my chameleon to drink it though- tried to give him some the first few days since...

I was just wondering what types of food everyone's chameleons like best. do they seem to have a favorite veggie or insect?

I just think they are too expensive for what they are. It would be much cheaper just to buy pet screen and build one. also, crickets climb behind the poles where my chameleon can't get to them. I heard somewhere that crickets eat right through the screen too. I haven't had that problem...

As far as plastic wrap goes.... I use Glad press n seal freezer wrap It's just covering the back wall because there is a mirror behind his cage and I don't want him to see his reflection. it actually works great. The stuff sticks right to the reptarium. In my opinion, its made it a...

mine hates the camera too whenever you go near him with it he hisses and runs off. I think he's going to be a badass when he gets big though-he hates me already. No matter how slowly I approach his cage he puffs up all big and starts hissing. he's just a little baby too. I can just...

despite the pet shop, he looks really great. I'm sure you have been reading up on chameleons since you realized you got bad advice from the pet store. One of my favorite resources is :www.chameleonnews.com i am not a very experienced keeper so I don't know what to tell you about food...

Hi, I just wanted to invite everyone to join my myspace group "reptile and amphibian information exchange" I started it because there weren't really any good myspace groups for reptiles. I only have 1 other member so far- Manny "the sharkman" Puig so if you have myspace- and want to...

do you think maybe you're just not seeing him drink? I have yet to see mine drink, I think he just likes to do it when I am not around.

I ordered hissers because I think they are neat. However, you said they could injure my chameleon? If thats the case then I won't feed him full grown ones. Thanks for the advice though, I will order some Dubia and try those too.

I got 1,000 pinheads yesterday, most of which are still doing great today. However I did make one mistake, I put a big pile of Gutload Cricket drink on a paper plate in their enclosure. Several crickets have drowned in the pile-- I think maybe it was just too big. Just wanted to...

full grown mealworms are called flour beetles yes you can feed them to your chameleon as long as he is big enough to eat them! When they are in the in between stage they don't move around very much, so it might be hard to get your chameleon to notice them. To breed mealworms/ flour...

What kind of roaches are you getting? I've got some hissers coming next week- i figure id better get started now since they take so long to breed. here are some links i've been using for hissers http://www.topline-2000.com/roach/hiscare.html http://www.nyworms.com/hissercare.htm...

this is hydro he is a very camera shy!

As stated above, I think that your kids could handle it as long as you take some responsibility yourself. Keep in mind that a well cared for chameleon can live up to ten years. Consider what will happen in three years, when your kids are 16 they may be more interested in partying then caring...

We have some form of walking sticks here in Missouri, Which I have always been fascinated with. However, I think that they may be poisonous ( i remember my mom telling me that as a kid) does anyone know what kind of walking sticks we have here in the states? i tried a google search and all...

I was thinking about just dripping a little on his nose and seeing if he will just lap it up. has anyone had any success with this? my anoles love it.

Grandma---- that way you can say: "My what big teeth you have!" etc.
