Hah that's the same waterfall that I had for Roger except it was the large. I don't have it anymore though because it gets so gross.
I think the problem was definitely the water because I've been using tap water the whole time because a lot of people said it'd be fine. I got a big jug of...
Hey dude I actually watched your video on the cricket cup and made my own :D It works pretty well. I used a normal water bottle for it though and sometimes the crickets can jump out haha.
Thank you!!!!
I've got to go to class but I can reply quickly
I have been using a little sample of reptisafe water drops that came with my dripper, but I'll definitely start letting the water sit or buying bottled water.
I also have his lights tipped back a little so they're not...
Hey everyone, here's a video of my little chameleon eating a cricket :D

He doesn't eat it until the 25 second mark fyi

Hey 1 more ? for you guys..
Is it normal for him to run away from the mister? Every time I mist him he freaks out and runs for cover haha. Even when I use warm water he still runs away. He's actually fallen once because he was so freaked out, he landed on his leaves so he was alright though...
Yeah I use calcium without d3 everyday and on sunday I used calcium with d3 for the first time. I also have a multivitamin that i'll give him once a month. He was only gaping for a little bit and it might have just been because he had a crusty nose haha. I haven't seen him gape at all in 2 days...
Alright I'll probably put the 10uvb light back in tomorrow. I would add more foliage but I don't want his crickets to be able to hide too much haha. I think that was the problem when I first had him, I had too many leaves and vines in his cage and he couldn't see his food and would just give up...
Chameleon Info:
Your Chameleon - Veiled, male, 2 months? I've had him for about a week. I got him a month ago but he wasn't eating and would only sleep so I took him back to the store and they let him get a little older.
Handling - I've only taken him out twice in the week that I've had him...
Hey everyone, I changed the uvb from a 10uvb to the 5uvb. Roger still sometimes sits under his lights with one eye closed though. He tends to sit on a branch kind of tipped to one side and puffed up, I think to soak up the lights/heat. Is it bad if he has one eye closed while he does this? Its...
I measured the temp at the top of the cage and it was around 95 like 2 inches from his light and his branches are about 12 inches from the light. He usually sits up on his vines about a foot from the light and sometimes he moves to one side more or goes down a foot for a bit. That thing in the...
The temps in his basking spot are about 90 degrees. I might try to lower the temps, I like to keep his lights warm though because I live in WI and sometimes my roomate has his window open and I want Roger to be able to stay warm if he needs too. I put about 8-10 crickets in each day, so he might...
Hey everyone, I just got my baby veiled chameleon Roger back. I have him in an 18x18x36in reptibreeze cage. I have a 10uvb light on him and a 100w basking light I think. I keep his lights on for 12 hours a day and then completely off for 12 hours at night. I mist him 5-10 times a day until his...
Hey everyone, I just went back to the store today to check on Roger. They've been keeping him in the back in his own little cage and giving him appetite stimulants. I held him and he was crawling all over and had both his eyes open :D They're going to keep him for a couple more days to make sure...
Yeah dude I got a 5uvb light so if I get him back that might help him. Haha yeah I think my cham is at the most 1 month old too, I think he was just too little to handle all the stress of shipping/moving and everything. If you look at my pics you can see him compared to a zippo lighter and he's...
I dunno man :( he was okay the first few days but then he started rubbing his eyes. Pretty soon he was just keeping them closed all the time and stumbling around blindly. I took him back to the store to see if he would get better but I went back today and he looks even worse. I don't think he's...
