This is a larger scale, but we have 2 homemade cricket keeper boxes at 8' long, the adult breeding side is 28"x6' with 2 egg laying bins, we rotate the egg laying bins every 4 days and move them to incubation, typically 10-13 days in incubation at 87 degrees for hatch. The adult side houses...

Mealworms are fairly hard to digest, your ok with crickets as the main staple, but your Cham would more than likely enjoy a mix with some silkworms, butter worms, or Phoenix worms, all great choices, possible some smaller horn worms. Oh, and juveniles with eat right around 10-12 appropriately...

I have to say i agree with most of the comments and suggestions but I completely disagree with misting once ever other day even as an adult, even though a veiled chameleon can handle less than perfect conditions, they do thrive in a humidity level around 60-70%. Misting every other day only...

Great idea!

Love it! We use to do this on our outdoor enclosures during the spring and summer, we would use a cheap foam ice chest, fill it with ice and poke a small hole in the bottom, typically lasted all day, kept the enclosures cooled down, and provided a nice shade spot. I couldn't make up my mind if...

He's beautiful! My guys that are chill are my favs, you walk up to the enclosure and they cone running to get out, it's crazy. I don't think I could get them to fire up for anything, not even around the ladies.

We have some Nosy Be's and Nosy Faly's that are so chill they never fire up, pretty much stay the same color all the time. I would say he is just shy of a year old, still looks fairly small, but I agree with the above, post some pictures of him walking, showing his legs, it may just be the...

Typically staying together until juveniles up to around 4-5 months is sometimes tolerable for them, but you should be separating them by size, and aggression. The males can begin to show aggression fairly early on causing unneeded stress. There are feisty females as well. We have always kept...

Beautiful little Cham, but looks more like a female to me in the pic, just based on the nostral process not extending past the lips. But I'm assuming that's not a current photo, however if that is the current photo, I'm very doubtful he is 9 months old, I would guess 4-5 months old max if it's a...

Sounds like an infection. Possible an irritation from something in his eye or a scratched eye. Vet sounds like your best bet.

You should separate them with a divider to eliminate unneeded stress. No need to worry about your Cham being lonely, chameleons are solitary animals and prefer to be alone. The goal of proper husbandry is to eliminate as much stress as possible and to promote the best health possible for...

What a great looking little guy. Congrats!

Both are looking great! He's going to be a handsome fellow.

I'm just super sensitive to glass enclosures for Chams, we started out like most people as a keeper, our love and infatuation for Chams soon became a rescue and rehabilitation operation and we spent hundreds of dollars on antibiotics treating RI's and eye infections from Chams that came into our...

Lovereps hit all the points spot on, I agree, the only thing I would add is my interpretation is that you have a 4 sided glass enclosure with a screen top. If that is the case that is a breeding ground for bacteria, and unhealthy for your Cham, you should switch to a full screen enclosure for...

We use hibiscus up the middle and just now started adding pothos to each enclosure with the hibiscus. This combo fills roughly 75-80% of our 24x24x48 enclosures. I'm not real big on the fake plants, but that's just me, and I'm not knocking anyone who uses them, so please don't take it that way...
