    How many sheds?

    I know its not good to grow too fast, but is it not good to grow too slow? Out of curiosity is there a "normal" amount of shed processes that a Chameleon a certain age should go through? For instance, my Waldo just had his 3rd shed today and he is just a eek over 5 months. Is that normal...

    Male veiled tail going limp different colors than body

    Hate responding with this cause I know you, like me, jump to the first reply eager to see help. But, it has to be done. The help offered here is superb, but in order to get the best information about your cham and its lifestyle, this has to be filled it. Once done so, or maybe before, you...

    Waldo - Catching a few Rays

    Hate to start a thread for one picture, but this is one of the chances Waldo gets to go outside with the Texas weather being so hot outside. He seemed to crawl to the top of my hand and just bask in that Sun as it set

    Moving around cage alot?

    Mine did the same thing just about 4 days after a shed. I thought it was the coolest thing ever, kept saying to myself "He's getting more comfortable with his home!" "He's not afraid anymore!" This was also at the 4 month stage. It oly lasted a couple of days for me...then he stopped...

    Am I on the right path for my baby...please send helping info..TY

    -Not until you drop those temperatures though. If the top of your enclosure is in the 90's (who knows what the basking spot is, you want to drop those temps quick and hope he spends less time up there until you do. Arrange your basking light by raising it, or angling it to shoot for 80-85...

    Am I on the right path for my baby...please send helping info..TY

    Spanky, can you upload a picture? Owning for two to three weeks could still mean any age for that chameleon. We don't even know if it is young or grown and the two require different living arrangements as far as temperatures and cage size are required Feeding - You should subsitute the...

    Mostonline Reptile companies ship absolutely safely, I bought from LLLreptile and received Waldo perfectly healthy with a guarantee. The box arrives and you are curious how the heck is that thing shipped like that and survives. Then you open to a makeshift chameleon home with insulation...

    Who did you buy your cham from?

    Waldo! I got Waldo from LLLReptile on Feb 28th,2011 at 4 weeks old Day of Arrival He's been a healthy and fun experience since then. Mood rarely changes, as shy as can be, always the same but never boring! July 6th, 2011 (First Night in New Cage) July 7th, 2011 (a little over 5...

    Rob, Everything sounds good when I read it... I'd like to note that while misting a lot may seem over kill, if its needed to keep the humidity levels around 50% then you should do it, as long when the lights go out after his 12 hours simulated day, the misting stops as well and the...

    why??

    The cage thermometer that you have, is it near her basking spot or is that a reading of the ambient temperature of the cage? If the ambient temperature of the cage is 80-85 I would assume your chameleons basking spot is higher then that. If you havent done so already, measure the closest...

    Enclosure question

    There are reasons to get smaller cages, hunting food being one. But, if you are like most of the owners on the forum, you will gain a liking to cup feeding and wont have to worry about that. I'm sure a nasty fall is also on the mind of whoever mentioned a smaller cage as well, with plenty of...

    Enclosure question

    Im sure that'll work fine, but I'd go for a bigger size. Wont be long before your cham outgrows that one if he hasn't done so already. And ignore the easy substrate removal door. Substrate is a No-No *Gotta love the box picture, one big chameleon in a small cage with one climbing stick and a...

    Eco Zone Vivarium Control

    the night light for the lunar feeling should be placed higher up? So I've managed to move my short UV lamp to the same side as the basking light, it leaves the complete other side of the cage dark, no light source what so ever. This sound okay with you? Sure cant wait to get the new stuff in

    Eco Zone Vivarium Control

    Yeah, i'm working on rearranging the lights as we speak, keeping the basking in the original spot and positioning the UV to cover the same area. 6500K light is something I've definitely looked into, and I guess for the hell of it I will get some sort of moonlight lamp to mimic the lunar side...

    How should the adult cage look?

    Agreed, Cage design is you're artwork. Take pride in it, make it beautiful, make it fun and then take pictures and show it off here! Just keep the basics in mind; Basking light off the screen, basking point needs distance away from basking light. Pathway from bottom of cage to higher...

    Eco Zone Vivarium Control

    So, myself having the UV light on one side and the basking light on the opposite side is bad. or not necessarily bad, but to give Waldo a better chance at processing calcium, i should have the UV light over, or closer, to the area where he normally spends his time basking
