I will be getting Penelope (female veiled) a new cage this month and I am thinking about the Dragon Strand Medium Tall Keeper cage with the Dragon Strand Laying Box. Is the laying box a good idea? I am going to do my best to keep her from laying but I want to have a lay box available just in...

Since misting seems to causes Penelope to run and hide today I decided to give Penelope a shower. Because she hates to be misted I worry that she is not getting enough to drink. Rebel loves his showers and will drink the whole time hes taking one so I though maybe Penelope might as well...

I see a lot of set ups with lots of vines with leaves and sometimes flowers. Where does one get these? I need more coverage for my male veiled and the pet stores want way to much for the ones that look bad. I just want to add leaves a color that Rebel won't eat. He loves his greens and his...

I hope I am posting this in the correct forum. I have read that in order to reduce,or prevent all together, females from laying you can cut back their feedings and keep basking at around 80*. I am not sure how old Penelope is but I am thinking she is close to 5 months. She still eats like a...

I was at my local pet store picking up my daughters Chaco Golden Knee Tarantula and I saw a container of adult dubia roaches for sale. I about choked when I saw them. :eek: Not near as cute and non gross as baby dubia's. lol For a split second I thought that there was no way I could breed...

My baby veiled HATES to be misted. Would a gravity fed rain ring work in place of an auto mister? I am getting ready to move her into a 18X18X36 screen cage next week and I want to make sure she is getting enough water. I think I will need to raise the floor up a bit because she is so small...

Had Penelope out today and I noticed that she was making this weird noise. She opens her mouth and makes this strange hissy, squeaky noise and when she closes her mouth she takes a breath, her neck kinds flares out (not sure how to explain it) and makes a little popping noise. Just noticed a...

So here is the free range I sat up for Rebel. I want to add a lot more so he can spend a lot more time out of his cage. So far he loves the umbrella tree. He gets right in the middle and its really hard to find him. Every once in a while you will see his head poke out..lol Sorry the...

I am trying to decide what to do. I have looked at all the cages from the sponsors and I just can't decide which cage to get. I LOVE the Dragon Strand breeder series cages but they are a little smaller than recommended size for my veiled. Also, do I need to upgrade Rebel (male Veiled) to the...

How long should I wait to move Penelope to her big girl cage? (18X18X36 all screen) She is in a 12X12X18 Exo Terra Glass Terrarium and she gets lost in it. I have a super hard time finding her. lol I am unsure of her age and I posted pictured and asked if anyone had an idea of her age. Both...

I have another question about Penelope's home. At her basking spot the temps range between 81*-82*. Is this a good basking temp for such a young female veiled? (not sure of her age. She is between 2-3 inches nose to vent. It cools off to the low 70's at night. Her lights are on a timer 7am...

Penelope seems to be settling in well. She still doesn't like to be misted but I found that if I do it very softly and just a little at a time she tolerates it better. I had her out today and took some pictures. I really wish I knew how old she was. If anyone can give me a estimated age I...

OK.. Please be patient with me but I have another question about my baby girl Penelope. (Aprox 2" Veiled chameleon) Sometimes when I mist her she will open her mouth real wide and make almost a squeaking noise. I know she doesn't like to be misted because she runs and turns really dark but...

I know that adult veiled's can tolerate pretty low temps at night but what about babies. I rescued a baby veiled from Petco and I am not sure of her age. She is aprox 2 inches from snout to vent. She is in a Exo Terra Glass Terrarium - 12 x 12 x 18 inch with a live pothos and fake vines. My...

I was told that this light has been associated with eye problems in chams. Can someone point me in the right direction so I can research and see if I need to return the fixture? I picked it up Saturday and if need be I will return it. I picked it up for our Penelope. ( Baby female veiled...

So I am super excited. I decided to stop at my local Houston Garden Center because I saw a big 70% off sign. I am so glad I stopped. I picked up a huge pothos for $9.00 and two 3-4 ft Schefflera's for 7.50 each. I walked out with three great plants for $25.00. I am going to use one of the...

Well, the little female was still at Petco and believe it or not the problems I complained about Thursday night had been fixed. This weekend was their Reptile Roundup so she was on sale for $29.99 so I couldn't leave her there. I have been worried about her since we left Thursday evening so I...

OK... So I decided to click on the Jungle Hobbies Cages page link on the home page and I am now super excited about getting a new cage. These cages are made to connect the MistKing misting nozzles to. Plus, I can order a mistking starter system at the same time. Has anyone had any experience...

My daughter (she is 20) is wanting a Tarantula and I think I have given in and decided to get her one. (shes been wanting one since she was around 10 and I told her that I would never have one in my house. lol) Neither of us wants to buy one for a pet store but would really like to find a...

Well, my daughter and I were at a Petco looking at tarantulas (we are thinking of getting her one) and I looked at their veiled chameleon. She was aprox. 2 inches nose to vent. She was hanging out ona vine trying to catch a cricket that was bigger than her head. There was a bowl of small meal...
