Oh and could you post what brand/strength your uv bulb is? I ask because it's so essential to your girl's health.

Hi! To me it looks like you're off to a fair start, except for a few things: Get rid of the night lamp. Any light at all at night will disturb their sleep patterns. You only need nighttime heat if your house gets below 65 degrees at night. Second, she may be a bit warm. There should be a...

Thank you for answering! I will take care to write a great essay. Showing passion in interviews should not be a problem; I LOVE research!

Thank you, I will look over his work and may contact him. Hoping to meet a few biologists on the board too!

Hopefully this is the right place for this. I am a recent graduate with a bachelor's degree in biology, and I wanted to do a sort of interview with any biologists on this board with a master's, Phd, or in progress on either. I am especially interested in those of you studying ecology...

Orange, grape leaves, carrot, apple, dinofuel.

I was really worried about my 5-month old veiled eating large crickets, paranoid he'd choke, etc...well one day I bought six of them to try out, and he gulped them down no problem! No excessive swallowing or anything. So maybe feed him one and see how he does from there.

Hahaha the crazy stuff you see at petsmart...I work at one, and two days ago a guy brought in a live mole because he didn't know what to do with it.

I put a shower curtain on the wall behind the cage. It's working great for me, but I understand if that is too ugly. Of course, you could put up a rainforest-theme curtain.

I'm so sorry...I work for a petsmart, and I too have complained about the care of the chameleons with little response from the managers. I was even told "you can't have a bleeding heart for everything!" That being said..I know you feel bad, but please don't buy him. Don't give them money for...

Thanks for some good ideas! I have another strange problem...about a foot away from the enclosure, I have a wet spot on the carpet that keeps replenishing itself. The floor is not wet at all around it, and there is nothing dripping or splashing there. I have no idea where it's coming from, but I...

Hey guys, I'm getting increasingly frustrated with drainage. Somehow, I didn't anticipate just how darn WET everything would be, haha. Right now, I have my 18" x 18" screen cage with pvc floor sitting in a water heater drain pan (like this"...

5-month old Jean-Luc checking out my yellow orchid in the window.

Well, I got my chameleon 2 weeks ago now. In general, he's been doing well! But Wednesday, I noticed his urates were yellow, and even caught him with his eyes closed. After being on these forums, I knew he was dehydrated, and got a couple drippers going, added some extra mistings, and put him in...

This is my little Jean-Luc, peeking at me from his favorite bedtime spot!

What a good looking guy! Thanks for sharing :)

I made one of those for jean-luc, with taller sides and mesh, and he really likes it! And it's so much easier for me, because I know how much food he's getting. I cut open the bottom and put mesh there to let water run through, so I don't have to worry about stagnant water buildup.

Sandrachameleon's blog, https://www.chameleonforums.com/blogs/sandrachameleon/ Is fantastic for gutloading. If you go through the whole blog, she goes through the nutrition and value of a ton of different gutload items.

Wow! What kind of chameleon is that second one?

He looks great! Congrats!
