So I've been thinking about this a lot lately as my male carpet chameleon, Elton, approaches the end of his natural lifespan. He's 2 years and 2 months old currently (carpets live 2-3 years, for those that don't know) and I can tell he's starting to slow down. He's not quite as active anymore...

Hey all. I just got some absolutely garbage news. So, recently, my landlord hired a roofing "company" to "fix" our roof. What they actually ended up doing was trampling over my several gardens and somehow caused our roof and all our windows to leak horribly when it rains. We had a specialist...

My local reptile store came through in a big way when I stopped by for crickets yesterday. They have a truly incredible selection of isopods in general (dozens of different types), but the last time I'd been in I casually mentioned rubber duckies. Yesterday, the employee who breeds the isos...

Okay I thought a nice, happy, drama-free thread might be a good palate cleanser for us all today :-) What other unusual animals do you all have to show off? While chameleons will always be my one true love, I've been cheating on them quite a bit in the marine world as of late. Here are...

Hey all! So a couple months back (about 3), I purchased a wildcaught Brookesia stumpffi (the plated leaf chameleon) and she has been fully thriving in her new home. Eats and hunts like an absolute champ. In the past couple weeks, especially, she inflated like a balloon to near comical...

Title is pretty self-explanatory. When I got into the hobby about a decade ago, I swear I saw bearded pygmies (specifically R. brevicaudatus - not the Brookesia species) all over the place. My local herp shop sold tons of CB pygmies back in the day, but I haven't seen any in years! Same goes...

Hey all, so yesterday a friend of mine who is in my same doctoral program as me came back from a 2 week trip to South Korea to find his probably 8-ish month old chameleon from FLChams dead. He got this, his first chameleon, a handful of months back, after I helped show him the ropes of cham...

{TL;DR - I was offered a cb male carpet chameleon from a local keeper, picked him up today, and hope to breed him with my unrelated female once she is of age.} Now the long version... Hey all! If you've been following my previous thread about my 2 month-old female carpet chameleon (F...

Goood afternoon, everybody!! After about an 8 month-long search, a lot of patience, hope, and preparation, I was finally able to purchase a certain species of chameleon we don't see around here all that often (and from a certain highly reputable breeder, no less) to add to the family. This...

I was just wondering if anyone here knows where I might find a guide for caring for either of these little Calumma species! I've been searching the web and the forums for a while now and there doesn't appear to be much out there. I realize they're not very common, but my local reptile shop...

TL;DR -- please help me determine the sex of this little one! Hey everyone! I'm in the market for a panther chameleon. I've previously kept a veiled chameleon (was active on the forums probably some 7 years ago or so) and now feel ready to care for a panther. My local shop has a juvenile Nosy...

Hey forums! It's been an obscenely long time since I've posted anything on here. Though, thankfully, that means everything has been going great for my now 2 year-old veiled, Azzy, and I. But anyways. So I've been talking with a friend for a while now and have really gotten excited by the...

My 3 month (and 17 day) old veiled chameleon arrived on Tuesday! He is one of Newton's sons from Flchams. Luckily I was paying attention because when the UPS guy dropped him off he didn't ring my doorbell :mad: I'm glad I was paying attention because I heard his truck as it drove away! I...

Hey guys, so I'm wondering about feeders again. I've posted here a couple times and, as stated before, I'm getting a juvenile veiled soon. I have everything ready except for feeders. I was reading up on various feeders today and found some links about phoenix worms and butterworms. What do...

Hey all, I just received my cham enclosure and the supplies I ordered in the mail. I put the cage together and it all looks great. Everything seems to be working, but I have a question about my digital thermometer/humidity gauge. So this is the model I have...

Hey everyone! I'm getting my first veiled chameleon in the next few weeks (I'm so excited! I've been reading this site and others for months and finally I'm getting one :D) and just have a quick question about his heat lamp. So, i went to the RaisingKitty blog and know that the basking spot...

Hey everyone! This is my first post here :D I really want to get a veiled chameleon (male) because they're...incredible. (My problem is my parents :() If I got one, it would be one of Mike's (Flchams) juveniles from his astounding Newton (if there are any left). I've done a whole lot of...
