So I am planning my permanent enclosure for my veiled but I am having loads of trouble trying to find stainless steel/aluminum wire mesh or insect screen. I've tried with a lot of ironmongers, aluminum suppliers, DIY stores..etc and none of them supply that kind anymore. Everyone switched to...

So guys I am back from the Vet check up! As you may or may not know these past couple of days I posted some concerns I had with my two juvi veiled. As as suspected it's a respiratory infection and thanks to you guys, online research and my keen observation skills I managed to catch it at the...

Very nice videos, incredible shots :D Any good documentaries about chameleons you guys recommend?

Your chameleon sounds like it's having a serious rough time. You can try Critical care formula until your chameleons begins to feel better. In the mean time look for some insects, have you tried craiglist? maybe there is a local breeder near you. earth worms from the fish shop would be ideal...

That's exactly what I told the Miss's :D Thank you! I am trying to look on the positive side and take this as a bonding experience, nothing says love like nursing back to health Either or it's not worth the gamble. These cham's are something I worked for; they have good potential and I want...

That's what I am doing. I mentioned I used the Repashy SuperCal NoD (or is that still with D3??) and dusting with multivitamins once a month, I'll switch it up to 2 weeks. For now though my chams have got a respiratory infection. I am sure of it, most of the signs are there. I call the vet...

The fogger being on all day is giving no time for the branch to dry off. Having a constant wet surface and shade could spore out some mold so be careful with that. Try set the fogger at intervals of periods like 2-3hours and place the branch directly underneath the basking bulb. Let the branch...

Chameleon Info: Your Chameleon - Veiled Chameleon, 4months. I've had him around 5 days Handling - None except to clean his cage Feeding - Mealworms, dubia roaches, locucts and crickets. Random amounts, between 5-10. I leave like 5 crickets in his cage in the morning for the day...

I've read over and over again that veiled chameleons can tolerate low temps, as low as 40. So far it has never dropped to that and I don't want it to drop that low. People do the mistake into thinking that just because an animal can handle harsh conditions its okay to introduce them without...

He does not do it all the time, just random times here and there when he is sleeping and also does it a couple of times in the morning when he's warming up. During the day he does not do it at all, at least I've never seen him but the majority of the time he looks as if he's normal, moves...

My male chameleon when he's asleep he sleeps in an upright position and every now and again I catch him yawning. During this yawn he shakes a bit and lets out a low frequency squeak, very similar to a squeaky door. I've only had him for five days. Night Temperature; 60.6F / 80% humidity...

I am not an expert on chameleons but I do have some years of experience in reptiles. WC animals are usually very difficult to take care of. They are not used to humans at all and will often view you as a threat, the jump between wild environment to a controlled one can be big and its very...

Keep in mind some factors that are stressful to your chameleon, new environment, new routine, new noises, new faces...etc all of these could be possibilities that may stress your cham for now. Just be patient. Turning black while basking is just their way of catching extra heat so don't go...

Really beautiful chameleon! :)

**UPDATE** I bought a new cage (these Hailea screen cages are really useful!), some jungle vines and a box full of crickets! I've separated the two and they seem to be doing a lot better, the female actually ate one cricket! I'm really glad I am making some progress! :D In my opinion it's...

Yes I am aware of that and I have bags of peat moss, vermiculite, eco-earth and ice-cream tubs at the ready for when she is gravid. That's exactly my frame of thinking hehe "For now". Already one step ahead of you, I ordered pieces of wood and next week I should be starting to build their...

I knew I should have from the start but I was foolishly led on into thinking group housing would work for a certain time. My plan is to put the cages next to each other and use a piece of thick cardboard to create a barrier. They can share the UVB that way. Yes I know what you mean about how...

This has been extremely helpful and very well constructed. To be completely honest, no, I am not all that confident on the age given to me, most stock that arrives the store owner is unlikely to know the exact hatching dates. I can separate them tomorrow when the stores open no problem and I'll...

Veiled Chameleons 3months old, day 4 of ownership I have just gotten a pair of baby veiled chameleons from Napoli. They both measure at 13-15cm in length and are 3 months old. I have had them for 3 days now and I am not sure whether the symptoms they are showing right now are either a case...
