If you look them up online, you will see these beautiful pictures of super contrasting colors for females, like blacks, whites, reds, greens, purples and oranges. I'm just wondering if they actually look like that in their basal relaxed state or if that's them showing their gravid colorations...

CHITIN: Today, I want to introduce you to a molecule called chitin. Chitin is a highly complex chain of N-acetylglucosamine, which is somewhat similar to glucose. If you look up a picture of chitin, you will see what appears to be two shapes that kind of resemble an hourglass. These are...

CHAMELEON COLOR CHANGE: As I’m sure you know, Chameleons are capable of color change. And, when I first was interested in how they did this, I looked it up and was provided with the simple answer “Chameleons can change color due to their special chromatophores”. This is something most people...

Hey guys, so here's my situation. In a few months I'm getting a female Carpet Chameleon and putting her in a glass/screen hybrid enclosure which I'm setting up right now. I want to give her a nice place to hide and I think that would be easier if there was a solid wall on the back side, and I'd...

Hey I'm getting a female Carpet Chameleon (F. lateralis) Does anybody know the kind of temperament I can expect? Like I know that Jackson's are more subdued than Panthers which are more subdued than Veileds. I haven't seen any information on Carpet Chameleons, specifically females so I'm...

I'm getting a female Carpet Chameleon in a bioactive enclosure. How can I provide her a place to lay her eggs?

Hey guys, I'm getting a Carpet Chameleon in my room. I have a glass enclosure which is 36"x24"x18" with a screen top. I also have the option to replace one of the sides with screen instead of glass. Would you recommend doing that for airflow?

Hey guys, I'm getting a new Carpet Chameleon (Furcifer lateralis) next year. I've had a chameleon in the past - a Panther Chameleon (Furcifer pardalis). I loved feeding my Panther Black Soldier Flies, in their larva form and in their adult flying form (for enrichment). I know that Carpets are...

I've studied chameleon science (deeply) and cared for them in the past. Anybody know any good ways to make some money as a Chameleon advisor or something? I'm not being greedy here, I was just wondering if there was a way to make a small amount of money on the side for this. Lmk on your thoughts.

Here's a science fact for all of you. If I were to cut myself, my body in order to stop bleeding would send platelets to clot my blood so I stop bleeding. These platelets aren't actually cells but cell fragments. They are unnucleated. Chameleons are different, see chameleons don't have...

Yeah so chameleons are extremely un-dense. Say we had a hypothetical chameleon that was from snout to vent the same length as your average human being. That chameleon would only weigh 4.27 pounds. I'll show you my calculation, and feel free to correct my math...

Does nondisjunction occur in Chameleons? If you aren't aware, nondisjunction refers to an error made during the meiosis process, where chromosomes aren't separated properly resulting in weird sex chromosome combinations. In humans that would be like Klinefelter syndrome, or a sex chromosome...
