Generally when they are in the dark they sleep. We use an appropriate sized cardboard box. So if you can time your travel with his normal sleeping times he will fall asleep at home and wake up at home in a new city :) As for temps we use towels that are wet to help with humidity. that should...
There seems to be mixed views on this one. My chams settle in every night at the same time if there is light on or not. Though i have timed their UVB and Basking lights to match them. Having the other light on in the loft seems not to bother them at all. Though i must say it is a very low...
Great pictures.. Who would have thought that getting chameleons leads to getting a new camera.. seems my old point and shoot basic model just isn't up to par for these cool little guys.
Keep up the great pics.

Sometimes our Veiled won't walk onto my hand and i resort to a long bambo stick. One or the other works. Grasping them around the body is generally not the best thing to do, I prefer to just guide them onto bamboo or coax them onto my hand with food.
I do feel kindof bad leading them on...
Hello all
We have a wonderful little Veiled boy up for adoption. He was taken in by us in so so shape from a guy who was leaving the state. There is a bit of a post about our efforts to get him up to health and ready for a new home. There are many pictures in the gallery linked in our...
I am looking foward to seeing your set up. You are gonna love the F. Lateralis they have great personalities. Only thing imho is make sure to provide lots of bushy cover, i am sure you have already read up about that. I bring it up because ours really relaxed once they had alot of cover. keep...
F. Lateralis are extremely aggresive towards one another. I've read about them hissing and biting at eachother straight out of the egg.
As far as glass goes it depends on your average temperature in your house. Glass is being used with success in the UK Canada and EU and even here in the...
When we have one that hates the misting process we heat our water up to hot, when sprayed out it has cooled enough to actually be a warm spray. Also we found that when hand misting if we mist straight up at the top of the enclosure after a min or so they see the drops coming down from the...
Of course you are welcome to come and your husband and all your chams. :) We could even go and get some nice fresh feeders from our very own local organic breeder :P.
We still have a beautiful little Veiled boy that needs a place also. But i am very sure that these guys would be easy. I...
But it could be the locale. I have been running around all day trying to get plants, hoses, light ballasts, and food for BBQ tomorrow and setting up enclosures. I am just starting to do research on coloration. Thanks for your input. :)
Well.....here we are again, with two female panthers. We have a partial back story. The guy got a job traveling and wasn't able to take proper care. They are both around 1 1/2 years we think. 24grams and 29 grams. Good grips but emaciated and dehydrated, though between the amount they drank...
