My mate's dog spotted my chameleon one day and he freaked out whimpering, as if to say: "what the hell is that weird alien looking thing!??". The dog dint bother my cham tho cuz he's high up and dint even notice the scardy dog.
Hey Ares - your cham acts just like mine. I struggle to even open his cage to feed him without him trying to climb all over me! Count yourself lucky, it sounds like you have a perfectly friendy n happy cham on your hands.
Thanks for all your replies. There's so much conflicting information out there, it's good to hear from peolpe who know from experience.
Todd your Mellers are absolutely gorgeous! :)
I won't be trying to house any chams together for a very long time it's just nice to know what your options...
Thanks for the info Brad. I am only a curious newby at this stage. I would definitley not consider trying this without A LOT more experience.
I love chameleons and find them fascinating, so maybe in many, many years time I may approach the idea.
I'd probly keep some as well - I got 5 giant asian mantids - but they are pretty boring looking. I think the one in the picture is well pretty, not come across any like that for sale where I am.
Sorry if this has already been asked but I used the search tool and could not find an answer to my query.
SOME people say that they keep their chameleons housed together successfully - Is this down to providing them with A LOT of space or do some species not mind a bit of company?
I...
I agree as I never tryed to get my cham Casper to tolerate handling as I believed from others experiences that handling would cause unnecessary stress.
However, ever since he was a baby whenever I open his cage to give food, mist or anything else he runs up my arm and I struggle to get him...
