    A project.

    I second Chamaeolo, but ide go further and recommend Calyptratus. Veiled Chameleons LOVE it hot, and their natural habitat is known for its temperature extremes. Now Im not saying to just put one in the sun (110+ F.) all day.... but I think a cage half in sun half in shade - with an excellent...

    Handling

    The key is just letting them see whats going on at all times, that way the are calm and wont feel spooked by a random monster hand randomly grabbing them. Though if you have a chameleon that just doesnt like you or being held, then your S.O.L. But if your chameleon will tolerate just move...

    Help Senegal breathing weird!

    Firstly you should fill out the how to ask for help form located as a sticky on the health clinic forum. Moss in general is not a good item for chameleon cages, mold would indicate bacteria which may have been inhaled by the animal and results in a respiratory infection. Though he could...

    Dubia Roach Colony

    Welcome to the forums! Dubia are a great choice of feeder! but for chameleons, variety is usually the best thing possible. Some good feeders: Crickets-staple Dubia & most any other roach- staple Silk worms- Staple/treat Horn worms- treat Super worms - treat of course there are...

    Seeing a lot of locales advertised online that look like another locale

    ahhhh the great mystery :) What uve seen on the internet, never take at face value. Yes chams have been mixes and sold as pure breds, and yes collectors mistake WCs for other locales all the time. There was this big issue going around with the Nosy Be's years ago. People were selling...

    San Diego Reptile Super Show

    Thanks for the Parsons pics! i was so curious about those guys at the show! does anyone know who the owners/sellers were? I was looking at the torts on top of their cage when I looked down and im like "GASP!" "Parsons?" you would think that for the price they would be kept like...

    I built it, Grass cage flooring!!!!

    I think the grass would be okay... as long as its well kept and in organic soil. The tree needs to go. It definitely looks like the "money tree", which as stated above is toxic if digested. replant it with a schef, or a nice big ficus, and I think it would be okay.

    San Diego Reptile Super Show

    Well the show had terrible lighting inside... and I did not want to use flash and spook every single animal in the vicinity.. But I did get a decent shot of Dr. Gonzo :)

    reptaid??

    YUP :) but not on chams, for my two little leopard torts. I can say it seriously helped them to get over it, though they started it after both receiving baytril shots. Cham wise I gave it to mine when they were acting kinda funky coming out of winter. Reptaid gave them a big pickup...

    dwarf transgendered veiled chameleon?

    First off.... Why members here constantly have to flame each other in public postings is getting somewhat ridiculous. Either keep it to yourself, send your quarrels through private messages, or find some other way to keep your internet rampages off of public parts of this site... The Entire...

    Need a positive I.D. please

    im thinking you got a chameleon that in likelihood is part nosy be. yellow lips sure are nosy be... but im thinking those oranges marking on his face when he fired up means nosy be is just a part of the puzzle. my guess? Nosy Be X Ambilobe he could be 99% Nosy Be, but that 1% results...

    Best Chameleon

    2x2x4 is actually a great size cage for most chams. You can house size wise up to big boy panther (sambavas anyone? :) ) or a burly veiled chameleon, but even a jackson's would admire the space were he given it. However thats gonna be cutting it close for oustaletti (sp) and it would be...

    Ambilobe x Nosy Be cross

    The problem is you cannot really expect anything While no chameleon is "ugly" some crosses come out "better" than others. I have seen some beautiful AmbiNosy's... and others that were less stunning. When cross breeding (which many members here are against, but really its your choice so...

    Critique my cage please

    that last link is the perfect kind to be twisted :) I use that method for my Sambava and Ambanja, and they love it because it lets them hold on easier (more footholds) and they sometimes travel on it upside down when hunting the elusive roach. your gonna have a lot of fun with your cham...

    Critique my cage please

    One thing I would suggest is getting four more bendy vines take two and twist them together (my chams love this) so now uve taken four and made two with varying thicknesses take the first and wrap it "around" and "inbetween" the plant, making little chameleon high ways. Secure it...
