I just got my veiled from Lost Lake today... I felt like a kid waiting for Santa, I even had trouble sleeping last night, how pathetic is that! So anyways I was imagining all sorts of horrible accidents that could have befallen my little guy, but he seems to be doing great! He crawled...

That was awesome! Gotta love the speed frame filming... sort of like Planet Earth... good stuff

Beautiful discus!! I have an Amazon biotope tank setup up right now, and would love to try discus in a bigger tank. Now I just have a breeding pair of angels, cories, neons, etc. That is a great setup... do you use a CO2 system for those lush plants?

Where do you get the real ones? I have been looking around but can only find the fakes at petshops and stuff...

I love the setup!! Are the vines you have in the cages the fake, flexible ones? I love the aluminun screen cages, the chams are so much easier to see. Where did you get yours and how big is the one on the right? I will have to upgrade mine in few months I'm sure... (if my cham survives my...

Why buy? I have tons of "feeders" running around my neighborhood... Maybe I could cancel my order for my veiled and get your komodo dragon instead... would he do ok for a while in a 30gallon reptarium?? ;)

Love your cage! I might have to go and buy myself a bird ladder too... Great Idea!

Awesome info guys. Thanks so much! Keeping my crickets alive for months was my main concern, so I will definately follow some of these guidelines. It make take a bit more work but it sure beats going to the petstore once a week.

Hey thanks, everyone. I am very excited, and glad I made a good choice. And reptimom, I would love to get a hold of some rudis one day... I am already getting obsessed and don't even have a chameleon yet... My wife will hate me! I will surely post pics tomorrow, if the suspense doesn't...

Well, I had heard repeatedly that starting with a montane species probably isn't the greatest idea, especially since I can only keep humidity between 55 and 60%. So that's the main reason, also it was hard to find CB rudis in a reasonable price range.

My order of 1000 crickets is due to arrive tomorrow. I figure my new veiled will eat quite alot, in addition to the other reptiles I have. I was just in the garage setting up a 10 gallon aquarium for them, and thought, holy crud, I am getting 1000 crickets! This may not be big enough. I...

He is a four month old veiled, I thought about getting the cheaper 2 month old but heard they can be a bit more sensitive, probably not a good choice for my first cham... He did have some amazing WC veileds... wish those were in my budget!

I just wanted to post a thank you to everyone of you that helped me out. These are BY FAR, the best forums I've been a part of. The help has been truly amazing. So thanks again all, I hope I will be able to contribute as I advance in the hobby. Anyways, because of all of you, I ordered my...

Thanks... Awesome info Brad... I had actually run into your blog last night during my search for veiled information. And ken, herpmist looks great! What a system, that may not be in the ol' budget right now, but I am sure I will get one later on... Just a few more Q's- About that...

Now I'm thinking a veiled chameleon would be right for be based on the humidity post I posted, in which a few, including you Brad, said that it is not best to start with a montane species. I checked out Lost Lake chams and they have a Turquiose X Sunburst Veiled for 110.00 with shipping. That...

I was wondering the same thing...

Very good ideas thanks! I will tinker with the cage to avoid sticking holes in the screen, but since I am using small wires, it doesn't do too much damage. I did the background because there is actually a mirror behind the cage attached to the dresser! So I had to pick the lesser of two...

Thank you so much... humidity was really worrying me. My lizard-less setup stays around 50% reaching 70% with mistings, so that should be fine for most any chameleon right? I am thinking of a Jacksons or veiled or maybe even rudis. in case anyone has noticed, Sorry about all the posts...

I am very worried about creating the right amount of humidity and have been shopping/researching humidifiers, misters, etc for the past few hours straight. Doing some research on previous posts in these forums yielded this quote from The Chameleon Company: "Quote: If your mist system is...

I'm a police officer... well I start the academy in July. Now I work in real estate by day and delivery driver by night.
