Pretty exciting day today! We had a warm weather break in Ohio, so Boba arrived around 10 am today. After carefully opening the box, and the lid to his container I put him near a branch and waited but he didn't move. So then I put my finger out and the cute little guy reached out and...
Much thanks to Matt and his family at Vanilla Gorilla at Nuts over Chameleons: Mount Shasta Panthers, for his time and devotion to getting to know where his babies are going and who they're going to. It was nice getting to know someone as a person and not just a breeder. My wife and I had a...
Cage is all set up. I didn't fully appreciate my Investment in the Dragonstrand Hybrid until now... For starters with just the plants and no misting the humidity is a solid 40% and after a misting 70%. Also setting up the branches was a breeze using small white zip ties and the Included...
Well I got notice today the Panther I was picking up friday, is lost or stolen... I haven't told my wife yet, as she will be crushed. We went to the Orchid show last week and they brought out a beautiful Panther on a tree, and she fell in love. She was already hooked from pictures and videos...
Went to Lowes and got a nice pothos. Had to go to the garden store for others, but I found a nice 2ft ficus and umbrella plant. I washed all of them real good in a tub of soapy water and then did the same in rinse water. Removed as much of the old soil as I could, and repotted them. I can't...
PS I have no intentions of breeding this guy, or any breeding at this time, and I imagine he'd be considered a hybrid and not for breeding. I intend to bond to this little guy, learn and care for all his needs. Now I just have to wait for my equipment and thanks to Turner1986 for being nice...

Ordered my cage today. Decided on a Dragon Stand. I started looking at DIYcages.com and others over the reptibreeze, and then somehow ended going from paying 65 & to a little over $200. Oops. I like the added PVC walls for humidity and...
Thanks! I'm going with the DIY 18 x 18 x 36 and I am planning on getting a Jacksons. Also doing a 24 watt 5.0 bulb.
Going to a plant and orchid show Saturday with my wife. Planning on getting a ficus or umbrella plant.
I found the Chameleon Kit at Petco for 77$ I'm wondering if this would be a good start, but I'm not sure how quick he would outgrow the cage Should I just get the 18x18?
First, I am glad I found this site! I have been learning and researching a lot. I have experience with other reptiles, but have always wanted a chameleon. My favorite was my Dessert Iguana, Stimpy, who became egg bound and passed away back in my high school years. She was very sweet and...
