    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...

    Chameleons as Christmas presents -- Input needed!

    I'm not a parent, but thanks for adding the part about college. Nothing frustrates me more than seeing a year old chameleon re-homed, due to college, or even worse, plans trying to be made to take one to college.

    Worm has me freaking out internally

    I'm curious to see what your vet thinks it is. I've found these every once in awhile in my male veiled's cage, but just clean them out. He's gotten a clean bill of health, so I'm fairly certain they weren't internal in him at any time. Keep us posted and try not to freak out! :)

    Just wondering if my enclosure is good enough.

    You may want to consider lowering her basking temp and cutting down on her food intake. If she laid eggs at the end of July and just laid again she is taxing her body and it will lead to a shorter lifespan. IMO the goal should be as few clutches as possible and those clutches should also be as...

    We be chaming

    Welcome to a terribly addictive hobby! I agree, a month is the perfect amount of time to get everything set and in place. I'm in Naples, where are you? Good luck and feel free to ask any and all questions here!

    Treat suggestions

    I'm pretty sure the wax moths are much lower in fat. I seem to remember reading years ago that they expend a lot of energy (and thus fat), in transforming from a worm into a moth. And no, they don't move around like a BSFL would, but still it's visually stimulating for a chameleon.

    Only laid 20 eggs...

    It's absolutely possible to have a clutch that small, and as mentioned it's due to diet and temperatures. I have a 3 1/2 year old female veiled (from JannB, so great bloodlines), and she's been in my care about 2 1/2 years. In her entire life she's laid 1 clutch of infertile eggs, and there...

    Daytona Beach Reptile Show Next Weekend

    Ironically this is the first year that I know I can go but just don't feel comfortable doing so during Covid, despite being vaccinated. Oh well, maybe next year!

    Too Much Pothos?

    Just be careful because pothos can harbor mealy bugs, something I learned the hard way and am still dealing with. I bought a similar huge pothos once and was thrilled until I realized that it was totally infested. I ripped it out and now only do plants. You can easily propigate pothos - just...
