The closest that my veiled has come to biting me was making biting motions at me with a lot of color all over his body. If hes out of his cage he will grab on to my hand but in his cage he becomes an aggressive little monster.
I am sure that's what I heard,(I could be wrong though). As far as my plan for moving, I am only moving about an hour away. I go to close the deal on the house tomorrow morning. My plan for moving him is to get his tree out of the cage and coax him to climb on my hand so I can put him in a fake...
There comes a time when you realize that the tiny chameleon you bought that would hiss at you on bad days when you were fiddling with its cage is grown. I was putting a new plant in his cage and as I was putting the rods in for extra branches, it hissed at me. If it was 2 months ago I would have...
that's the plan. I might get him a new tree in the next few days since im packing up to move anyways. any advise how to move my cham with least amount of stress.
Hello, I helped cause something to veiled that will bug me for the rest of the day. I misted my chams cage with a spray bottle and it was trying to get away from the spray. Then I heard a light scream from it before I heard it hit the bottom of the cage. It is fine the second he hit the ground...
Hello, I just noticed today my veiled seems to be setting with his body closer to the branch hes gripped on. He seems to eat and move through the branches at a normal pace and does not show any signs of stress. He did go through a complete shed yesterday. Im not going to do anything until it...
I know that now. Everything seems fine with all my pets. Bearded dragons are fine and my veiled cham is like normal now. I have never seen the beginning of a shed. The only time I have seen it shed is when I wake up in the morning and its covered completely in peeling scales. I am going to have...
he is shedding I looked back and it looks like shed to me now. In the cracks of the white looks like his normal color. I was just more stressed so my mind jumped to conclusions. He is actively eating and does not seem lazy or sickly (he moves normally does not seem sluggish or shaky.) Its lights...
I left for the weekend Friday afternoon. I told my neighbor/ landlord to feed and water my chameleon on Thursday. I get back and my bearded dragons have not been fed and my chameleon not only has not been fed but his mister ran out of water. I put some crickets in his cage for him to eat and...
Hello. Today I think I made progress with my first chameleon today. I know its nothing new to the more experienced. I managed to hand feed a worm to my young veiled a few mins ago. This is the first time it has not retreated into the leaves when I approached so I took a treat for my beardies...
I kind of figured it would be one of those over time things. I have handled it twice since I have owned it and it was due to it running out of new places. Once was to get it out of the box I brought it home in. The box lid was left open while I was doing last min setup on its first cage. He...
Hello, I have owned my veiled for about a month now and I just have a few questions. To get it out of the way I have the correct lighting and heat. The first is more about the veiled's reaction to me. I know when I bought it that it was a look only pet. Every time I approach its cage it goes...
Hello, I am still new to chameleons. I have had my reptisun 5.0 light on the top of the mesh of my cage. The baby veiled will walk under it back and forth. I was thinking that the mesh was blocking out too much uvb. Today I went and got the stuff to mount a 18" uvb inside the cage so I know...
Hello I am a new chameleon owner, this is my first post. Within the next few months I am going to be buying a house, and I am wondering what is the easiest way to move a young veiled chameleon. It is still getting used to me and It was by luck I got it into its real cage by it grabbing onto my...
