Oh no, thats not good, maybe i should take a pic of his poo for ya, hah, his poop looks normal and solid, looks like his worms he eats only covered in poop, and the urate is all white it just looks.."watery" if that makes sense?

Yes his urate is snow white and looks kind of slimy..sick.

a cage above 36" would definately be too large for a juvenile, but you can always figure out a way to put a divider in the cage for time being until the cham gets bigger, and 36" would be a good height for an adult, will you be getting a male or female veiled? the males tend to be bigger,

well he has dark poops and the urate is white,

your chameleon drinks water a day? i probably see mine drink a little at every misting (mist 5-7x a day) but i hardly ever see him drink from the dripper..i am afraid he is not getting enough water, i've written about this before but his eyes don't look as "buggy" as they should, i do notice...

someone bought it for me as a gift, it came from a reptile store in st. louis and that is pretty much all i can tell ya, mine is 18x18x24 same demensions and i have a veiled that is 6 months old, as he grows i will have get creative and figure out a way to make the cage taller, and i will...

all mesh is better, there are a few websites you can buy aluminum cages from but i am not sure which website...someone else surely knows on here, or you could search for aluminum cages on the forum?

if you must go with glass at least do two sides of mesh, the more ventilation the better for a veiled. i actually have a glass enclosure but it has sides with mesh, and top with mesh. also, the demensions of the cage depend on how old/big the chameleon is, but if you want to save money, make it...

i was just at petland last weekend and i was just checking out the pygmies they had, there were 3 in the cage but one appeared dead to me, i told the "reptile" petstore guy and once he opened up the cage and got a better look it was definately dead...poor little thing, he was just like oh well...

is it pretty hard to keep those clown fish alive? i've always wanted one and just wondering the amount of time and money that has to go in having those nemos..??

i love their "spikes" all over their bodies, they are adorable!

especially avoid PETLAND, you shouldn't even purschase anything from them b/c they support puppy mills, sorry i just had to add that in there...

thanks, i figured veileds were easier but i was just at a reptile pet store the other day and they had pygmies there and i fell in love with them, i've never gotten to handle one before and i got to hold a male and female and i just thought they were so cool, but i am perfectly fine with just...

Which do you think is easier to take care of?? A veiled chameleon or a pygmy?

wow thanks! ..i will never handle my chameleon or anything else that involves him ever again. no im kidding, but this definately makes me a little more cautious.

so do they carry salmonella all the time? or do they just some how get it and then have it forever or..whats the deal with that?

good to know, thanks! i wash my hands but not every time...when i let him crawl on me his nails are so sharp they break the skin so i do try and wear long sleeves when i hold him, ..and that is so weird about those tiny turtles, it was about 6 years ago when i had them, i had no idea they...

i use to have 2 turtles that were smaller than a quarter, i got them from florida on a vacation, weird...i did not know that. I just thought you could only get salmonella from snakes... sorry to start up a different conversation..

so does everyone wash their hands after handling their cham?

you can get salmonella from chameleons? i thought that was just snakes....
