My new boy seems to retire early for the night 7 last night, 6:30 tonight. Should I leave his lights on for a bit so they always go out at a consistant time (say if on a timer), or should I just turn them off when I find he's gone to bed? I just worry that it will get too cool, but I guess he...

Well I'm not sure yet...I haven't come up with a name, any suggestions welcome! Just got this little guy this morning from a reptile rescue. He is my first chameleon and with a ton of research and reading here I hope I'm totally prepared. A couple weeks worth of cage building, running...

Hi all, Getting my cham this weekend! Anyways, I've had the cage set up for a week and have been monitoring the humidity in there. Keep in mind, this is without the lights on (only the room lights, not the enclosure lights) and no misting. My humidity ranges between 60-80, generally sits...

Well I have found as I research chameleons, that not only do I need to learn how to keep them, but how to keep crickets as well! Being totally new to reptiles I have no clue on keeping bugs, usually I am trying to keep them out of my house, not in it. So, a few questions on keeping crickets...

Hi all! Just wanted to do a quick intro before slipping into lurk mode. I am hopefully about to become the proud owner of a veiled chameleon (if my application is approved!) and found this site while I was reading all I could about them. Thought it would be a good idea to stick around and...
