    First Week of Chameleon Ownership.

    So tonight draws to a close the first week of Chameleon ownership. I feel one week more experienced than I did last week. The week started well, my exo-terra terraium was set up, high 80s in the basking area, mid 70s in the opposite end with a night time temperature of 70. My UV tubes are...

    Brilliant advice and good links, some of the links don't work now, the web.archive can't be accessed. Here is a link I found through reading the links above. It is a good article that discusses in detail UV lighting: http://www.testudo.cc/ Thanks for the advice and links.

    Housing Experience?

    I think someone mentioned it but one point about free range could be the closer an animal is to the wild captured of that line the happier they are in a free range exhibit. An animal further down the line of captivity may be more happy in a cage/tank/ screen etc. A thought. Another issue is...

    Fantastic. I can't wait until Keith is adult. I haven't had him shed since I got him.

    ...and we are off !

    Damn, thought I was a shoe in for a having a house full of Chameleons! haha. My friend breeds them and I got my Keith from him. He has bred Chameleons for years and I think I will wait a years before attempting breeding them. I can't wait to see a load of baby keiths.

    my veiled yoshi

    The power of the forum. I keep checking everyday so I don't miss any possible health problems that could affect my Chameleon.

    ...and we are off !

    Breed Away! Breed away my friend, breed away! I'm just getting in to Chameleons so I will have a second at some stage! I've never been to the Isle of white so what better excuse to leave Manchester for a week. Also the wider UK could do with some Isle of Wight blood lines. We'll find...

    Some babies i hatched out few days ago

    Your so lucky. I'm looking forward to being at a level I feel confident enough to breed. I really like my first Chameleon and would like to breed from him at some stage. I'm still learning about looking after this one so I need to do some research about breeding. Great video, great babies...

    How long will this size last?

    If I had the money I'd buy or make the biggest cage possible, wide and high. My Panther is currently in a 90cm x 45cm x 60cmtall. He seems happy enough at 4 months old but i will change to a 90cm tall terrarium next year when he is adult and my girlfriend has forgotten how much this set up cost.

    I don`t know what to say

    I've only just got my little guy and I dread him getting ill! So many Chameleon keepers on here have lost their Chameleons. I suppose it gets hard because you invest so much time on them. How long have you had Gizzy? Good luck at the Vet.

    Who Likes BLUE?!

    Nosey Be hey? You know I think my Chameleon is a Nosey Be, I'll check with my friend tomorrow that bred him. Whatever he is he is very similar to yours.

    Chams eat mice?

    If you care enough to research you care enough to... Yes, I just think anybody who researches enough that they ask about feeding mice means they are surely researching the requirements of a chameleon. Those that worry about whether or not to feed mice need not worry at all becuase they...

    They grow too quick!!!

    I look forward to breeding Chameleons. I think I will concentrate on keeping my first Chameleon Keith alive and well first though! I will breed them at some stage though. Im sure!..

    Chams eat mice?

    Quite coincidental, a Chameleon breeder friend of mine was telling me that If on occasion as a treat for the Chameleon I bought from him I could feed him a young stage mouse as a calcium boost. Would the benefits of the calcium as an occasional treat outway any fat content worries? Do...

    He Hates me He hates me not???

    Angry Chameleon Excuse me, I am about to answer a question with a question and I'm not even a polititian! Does a Chameleon have to be misted? Can their environment be misted without misting the Chameleon too? My Chameleon (Keith) doesn't mind being misted he stands and allows the water...

    Newbie just begining

    I'm new to Chameleon keeping, in fact I've only had keith 4 days. BUT i have done a lot of research on keeping them. A very famous museum keeps their Chameleons under dual UV lamps, one at 2.0 and one at 5.0. I have used this set up. I've been playing around with vines and I have found the...

    I saw this and thought "chameleon" - but how?

    Not sure what heat would do to the plastic, It might be really humid inside and not enough air ciculating through.
