I am looking at some Chams online and can't decide what I want to get next. I reallllllly like panthers but they are expensive. I like Jackson's and I have seen a few others but I'm not quite sure yet. I need help on some ideas so if you could plz give me some different breeds of cool chameleons...
His cage is 12 by 12 by 24 so it's a decent size. My other veiled will crawl all over me. Ever since the day I bought him he has hated his cage and as soon as I open the top he crawls right up my arm and when I try to put him back he runs the other way right back to my shoulder lol. Every Cham...
I finally got to hold my Veiled Cham Steve today! I have been putting my hand in the cage everyday as well as hand feeding him and after all the hissing and running away he finally came to me. This is what he looks like let me know what you think.
Get a misting system and set up the timer to where your humidity levels stay at the correct percent. I would suggest a mist king or AquaZamp. They have timers where you can make it go off every two or three hours for like 30 seconds and it will keep it nice and humid in your enclosure.
My chameleon most like others does not like to be touched and is starting to snap and hiss at me when I try to handle him so I can clean his cage. Eventually he will bite me and I was wondering how bad does it hurt or if it will draw blood? Let me know!
Instead of buying those expensive backgrounds for glass terrariums I made my own out of printer paper and it actually looks ok lol. Tell me what you think of it.
That's what I thought too untill he hissed at me later on. I just wish he realized I don't want to hurt him but I absolutley see where he is coming from because I am like 100 times bigger than him. I will definatley keep trying every day.
I know! And this one is soooo nice and crawls right to me. I did what you told me and slowly put my hand to Steve and he put one foot on me then he ran. Later I tried it again and he hissed at me. So I will keep trying and continue to be patient. I just dont want him to grow up being mean and...
I have Steve and now I have Allen! I love them both and I am spoiling them with leaves and trees and branches so hopefully they live a long happy life!!!
I got a 6 week old veiled today and he is awesome! He actually hates being in his cage. He will crawl to the top and run around like a maniac but when I put my finger out he crawls right on it and just chills there. I have never seen a Cham do this. Well here is a pic tell me what you think.
I was gonna have him in there for like 6 months then build him a badass cage but I'm still in high school so I don't have loads of money. Just what I get from my job
Right now I have the exo terra terrarium it's 18 by 18 by 36 and its glass but has a screen top. Is that a bad cage because I just spent 100 bucks on it and everyone said its a great terrarium to start out with
At the pet shop they have two in the same cage and they were just walking around and didn't really seemed stressed at all so I just thought since they were babies it might be alright.
I will definatley try that but what if he tried biting me while I am holding him? I don't want to drop him or freak him out. I'm going to be honest, ever since that hissing ordeal I have no clue what could happen. He could climb onto my hand and then bite the hell out of me. I'm a little nervous...
