I live in upstate New York (Geneseo) and I don't have, or have very low amounts of air conditioning.

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?

I am currently studying evolutionary biology, zoology, and cellular biology. I've cared for a Panther Chameleon and am currently doing extensive research on a close cousin to the Panther, the Carpet Chameleon. It's a very interesting family of animals, and has peaked my interest in not just what...

Yeah I get that. I think that, for me, I love working with chameleons and I love helping people with theirs, I'd love to do it for hours but I can't just quit my job or studies to open up time for that. Part of the reason I ask is to not just mindlessly monetize such amazing animals, its more so...

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...

Word, yeah I see what your saying. Appreciate the advice.

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.

Chameleons tend to like their nuclei. Their red blood cells (which in mammals loose their nuclei) are nucleated in chameleons. What effect does this have on their gas exchange? Idk, bottom line is there's a lot about chameleons that needs to be tested.

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...

Just double checked, and yes my math was off. It would in fact weigh 402 pounds. The reason that sounds so off is because mass increases rapidly with size. So, yeah, I appreciate the correction

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...

I'm doing an autecological study on F. pardalis, particularly the more cellular aspects. I was wondering if anybody had ever heard of nondisjunction. The conclusion I came to was that it is POSSIBLE, as evidence of nondisjunction exists in Sceloporus grammicus, which diverged from chameleons 140...

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...
