I have a 3 year old panther chameleon who has been acting ill the past couple of days. He is bright yellow and sleeps most of the time. His cage did get down to 62 degrees one night. Could that make him sick? I noticed him rubbing his eyes on some branches as well. He is normally out in my...

Hi! I got my chameleon, Kiwi, in late July of 2025. (He was around 3-4 months old) When I got him, he was super lively and started eating right away. He climbed on my hand when I put it in his habitat, and would not want to go back in when I tried to put him back. Recently, he hasn't wanted to...

Just changed around my chameleons cage added extra plants etc. and now he doesn't want to be in his cage and he keeps on trying to climb the glass and every time I put my hand in he climbs up me and won't go back in his cage. But before he used to love being in his cage. Is he ill ?

Only put Walking Sticks in the chameleons enclosure when feeding the Walking Sticks out. That is going to calm your never about chameleons getting bit (or other mishaps) and save your plants. Best Regards Jeremy A. Rich

Looking for links to feeders that can get attached to screen cages without damaging it and preferable one a cricket can’t get out of, my chameleon can’t use his tongue but will eat if he can reach it without it moving everywhere, although it’s a bit difficult giving him his other food option...

Build out the cage and test all of your levels for a week. This is going to tell you what needs modification. You want to make sure that everything is set up perfectly before you purchase the chameleon. Once everything is running correctly with temps and humidity levels day and night then you...

I need help getting my veileds humidity up. I already use acrylic sheets over his cage at night, I have a humidifier and I mist, (whenever I see the levels too low for my liking.) I have live plants as well. I put a fan next to his cage but it’s in front of the acrylic on rotate. so it doesn’t...

Hello everyone! I’m excited to find this forum! I’m getting my first baby soon ( veiled male). I’ve watched almost all of Bill Strands videos to learn as much as I possibly can about this species. There is a 3 month old baby right now at a reptile store here in town and he is the most...

If you can get a close up picture of this chameleon's back feet, it'll be really easy to gender them. I'm personally thinking female with what we see, but it's good to make absolutely sure to know if you'll need to make a lay bin or not. The biggest concern with the chameleon death kit (in my...

So I have a 18x18x24in enclosure with another cage on top to make it taller. I plan on buying a new enclosure for my chameleon and want to get a crested gecko into the glass tank. My question is: should I strip the tank clean, or should I leave it how it is (it’s bio active btw) and just out the...

Hey there everyone! I’m coming close to a year of owning my Jackson’s chameleon and I think he’s starting to outgrow his 18x18x36 glass cage I got him when he was a baby. I was thinking of building a custom 2-2.5ft x 4-6ft cage with wood and various other materials but have had some worry’s and...

I’ve had my chameleon for a while now. When I first got him he had some heath problems but he is doing much better now. I recently moved him into a bigger cage and he was very happy in it for the first few months. He ended up eating a bunch of the plants so it was pretty sparse. He started...

For a veiled that would be Framschams. You want to wait to buy a cham though until you have your cage set up and I would suggest a review within the forum at that time to make sure everything is on point. The breeder will tell you how they ship and you can get further details from them. I have...

It's been a minute since I've needed to post so here's updated info. Phineas the Tongue-less Wonder Your Chameleon - Male, Jackson Xantholophus. Age estimate is 2.5-3 years. I've had him about 1.75 years now. Petsmart source. Handling - I bring him out a few times a week for physical checks...

Hey there. I would recommend reading through this husbandry program if you have not already. https://chameleonacademy.com/chameleon-husbandry-program-getting-started-with-chameleons/ Everything on that site is correct husbandry info. Another good source of correct info is Neptune the Chameleon...

The fog comes out of the fogger or from the hose actually through the light force off a small, integrated ventilator, but I do not feel that is somehow harsh. The fog normally pours out of the opening of the hose and the opening of the hose should be placed on the top of the cage, and it...

Yes I have watched a ton of videos by Neptune the chameleon. That is where I have gotten most my information

Putting Walking Sticks in an enclosure only when feeding a chameleon is a precaution. Similar to taking the big hopping legs off Schistocerca grasshoppers when feeding to a chameleon and only feeding Mantis to a chameleon while supervised. I would not want one of my chameleons to get a giant...

Hello out there my fellow chameleon keepers and enthusiasts! I've been silently reading as many posts here as possible to be as well informed as possible about my new little friend. I've always wanted a chameleon and came across one who stole my heart a few months ago. so, I made the leap and...
