As sad as it makes me, my husband and I are moving and cannot provide the home our male veiled chameleon needs. We are willing to part with him only to someone who we know would take good care of him. We would also provide a large screen enclosure, lights, and a large potted plant.
He is...

1. My chameleon is the love of my life. She, however, looks at me like she barely tolerates my existence.
2. Not sure if sick... or just on hunger strike.
3. Never being able to get a picture with both of her eyes facing the camera.
4. In half of the pictures I DO manage...
Dona has been getting ready to lay eggs for the last week or so (vet confirmed). She wouldn't eat on her own for several days and was very lethargic. The vet had us force food and water to her because she was getting too weak. We both work all day but have tried to leave her alone as much as is...
Dona is definitely getting ready to lay her first clutch of eggs (infertile, of course). We are watching out for her, and her belly has become more swollen and she is moodier. She is still eating and drinking and pooping.
My concern is that she's spent a lot of time on the vines right next to...
My girl is either getting fat or getting eggs. She's still eating (a lot), and hasn't been at the bottom of her enclosure. But I think that she might be getting (growing?) some eggs. The vet a few weeks ago said that she was old enough to start laying eggs and to keep an eye out.
It looks like my husband and I might be moving to Alaska later this year. We are talking to the Army right now, but it's a very real possibility at this point. I got Donatella with Texas in mind, and it's much easier to take care of her here than in a cold environment.
We would be in the south...
Dona's eyes didn't get better, so I took her to the vet today. She was diagnosed with an early stage eye infection that hasn't yet spread to other areas. I was given an antibiotic eye drop solution to clear it up, and she should be just fine.
We also learned that she is otherwise in perfect...

My little girl is getting ready to shed again. She is getting bigger, so my husband and I have ordered the extra large screen cage from diycages for her. I want to set it up with a live plant, and make a laying bin for her to be prepared.
What plants would be best for an enclosure this size...
Donatella decided to literally hang upside down from just her tail and back legs. She was going after a meal worm; she loves them that much! She's a crazy little sqeaker, that's for sure.
Donatella has started occasionally squeaking at me (it's definitely not a hiss and she doesn't get grumpy colors when she does it). For example, I had her on my shoulder a few days ago and I held up a worm for her. She just stared at it, so I took it away after a minute. When I took it away she...
Hello All! I posted in here a couple of days ago with a question, but I wanted to give an official introduction to my chameleon. Her name is Donatella, and she is amazing :) She got settled in easily and has taken very easily to hand feeding, though I don't always do it. She shed her skin a few...
Hi, I'm new here, a chameleon owner for 3 days now. I have a very young female veiled, and I had just a few questions about making sure all is well with her. My biggest concern, because I know she eats (she's grabbed crickets right out of my fingers), is her... well, pooping. I've seen the...
