    Chameleon Color

    I just noticed the link to your pic. From what I see, and I am not an expert. But the Gray color in his head, and where the yellow bars should be on his side indicate to me Stress/Unhappy. The yellow bars that you are talking about will become more prominent and permanent as he gets older...

    electrical wiring as vines

    That is an interesting question. It seems like you would be able to? With the coated wire, a thick gauge. At my old job we would end up with some decent length scrap. The only thing I wouldnt like about it would be the astetics(sp). I am guessing as long as the cham didnt bite into the...

    Favorite indoor plant for chameleons

    Is Jasmine Safe for the chams? It sounds like a good Idea.

    Chameleon Color

    How old is your cham? If it is a young cham with not a lot of colors the bright green might be his display colors. Black/Gray coloration is Stressed/Unhappy unless the Cham is cold and Basking. A good way I have noticed what my chams "Happy, Non Stressed" color is, is when he is sleeping. He...

    New any suggestions?????

    The UVB needs to be a floresent tube, You will not get the UVB from screw in Iradesent lights (SP). However, for the plants to grow like you are talking about the screw in Iradesent lights put out UVA that the plants like. Your cham needs UVB to help Absorb Viamine D3 and help process his...

    i need some help with nail breaks

    If the Finger it self is broken, I dont know what you can do, or even if a vet can help. You may consider going and having it checked out. It may end up like a boken toe on us humans you just have to let it heal? Frank

    i need some help with nail breaks

    Is it bleeding (Barley, Bad). There is a vein that runs into the nail, Reptiles have been known to bleed out from broken/Cut nails. If it is bleeding put some flower on it and go to a vet. The flower helps clot the wound. When I had my Waterdragon, I would trim its nails and I always had to...

    My Setup

    Looks decent, Like said before in other posts the aquarium could pose many problems, and a screen cage would be better. The other thing you should get is some live plants. Make sure you get Cham safe plants. There is a list on this forum of safe plants. Frank

    Super Worms

    Chameleons can change color very early on in life. but to start getting colors mine is about 4 months old, and his yellow bands are comeing in. I dont know if this is a good comparison but I would say it is normal. Frank

    New - Chameleons! Online E-Zine Apparel and Other Items

    Maybe for another photo contest we could post pics for votes for a Calander. I think that would be cool to possibly have a pic of my cham in a calander with a brief description. Just an Idea

    Just Curious

    That is sad. But it is interesting. What was the outcome of that little guy. Did he/she live or were there other problems? I would also hate to see "Designer" chams too. I was just curious about it with the way Chams change colors. That Brev. is pretty. Thanks for the post. Frank

    Just Curious

    Has anyone ever seen an Albino Cham? I know they all have a form of Pigment Manipulation to turn colors, but what if the pigment wasnt there? You see a lot of other Reptiles that are Albino, but I havent seen any chams. Like the post say, I am just Curious. Frank

    decided to put Splinter in Sonics

    Just because they are old enough to breed, doesnt mean they should. Egg development takes a lot out of a female. She should be full grown and established before Breeding. which is usually at a Year + old.

    I'm a plant killer...

    I dont want to make fun, this is just a personal observation. My Mother has a Brown thumb, any plant that she comes in contact with dies. My Father on the other hand can take a stick off the ground and turn it into a beautiful plant. I dont know what it is. Some have it, Some dont. On the...

    Calcium in Water?

    I read somewhere (Dont remeber where, I have read so may diffrent things) that the 2:1 Calcium:Phosphorus was good for chameleons. I have also just read that the 2:0 Calcium:Phosphorus is the way to go. So I am a little confused right now? Anyone help us out here? I agree with...

    I am new to owning a cham and to the forum PLEASE HELP

    I would say right now at 2 months a screened cage of 18wide, 18 deep, and 30 tall. should be fine. This will have to be upgraded when he is close to being an adult to 24 wide, 24 deep, and 48 tall. As far as the wattage of your lights it depends on the heat in side the cage. As long as you...
