Hello, Its been a while since I have posted. Here lately I have been looking to replace my dying trees for my Jackson and veiled chams. While at work I thought of an idea for a treeless style of cage. I am posting to see if its going to give them health issues and advice for anything im missing...

Hello, Lately my ac in my house has been on the fritz. I live in FL and the temp in my house is starting to increase due to my ac being out. I am thinking about moving my Jackson chameleon to my moms house for a few days while my temps are high. Right now my thermostat has peaked at 79. And I...

Is it a good idea to make some sort of hide box for either my veiled or jacksons chameleons. The idea came from seeing my veiled settling in about an hour before lights out. He does not sleep all day hes usually quite active during the day. If its a good idea any suggestions?

Hello, I bought a large amount of reptiworms almost a month ago. I threw what I thought were dead away and some time later I had soldier flies buzzing around my house. Its not a complete infestation so im not all that worried they rarely fly around me and they have no compost to lay eggs in...

Hello, I just posted a pic of my new Jackson cham yesterday. Well I got him at a bad time for him. Not only is he dealing with relocation stress but he also began shedding. I hope this does not effect him too much.

Hello, Today was repticon in my town and I came back with a new pet and a cage setup for him. Here is Jackie my Jackson's chameleon. So far he seems more docile than my veiled, he has not hissed or bit at me while I was making some adjustments to his cage. I took the advise from forum members...

Hello, This weekend there is a repticon going on in my town. I am thinking about getting a Jackson if I see one there. I have raised a veiled for a few months and he is really healthy. (It feels like yesterday he was no bigger than my index finger) So I have a few questions about them. How is...

Hello, I open my cage during the day to let my veiled roam the house and climb in a fake tree I have set up by a window. If I have to leave the house is it a bad idea to leave him out if im going to be gone for an hour or 2. My overall house is a small condo that's pretty safe, no places he can...

Hello, Will it do my veiled harm to cup feed him. I have heard that it can make your pet lazy if you do nothing but cup feed. usually I just pour the crickets into the bottom of his tree and he chases and hunts them down. But a few mins ago I held a cup with some dusted crickets and he seemed...

The other day I was trying to put my veiled back in his cage he would hiss at me. When he hisses should I back off or should I not react to show him im the boss.

Hello, I was tending to his cage to add some more vines. He was doing ok until something spooked him and he fell out of the cage bounced off of the back of the couch and then the carpet. As soon as he hit the ground I was about to call a local vet thinking he broke something. But as soon as he...

Hello, Lately my male veiled seems to be in odd places in his cage. By odd places I mean roaming the cage floor every so often. (I over reacted the first few times I seen him walking around on the floor thinking he fell but I never heared a thump and he seems to not be hurt). I see him climbing...

I have looked over the forums and a few google searches. I cant seem to get an answer that satisfies me. I own a mvb in my supply box, but I cant figure out if I should actually use it. I see it on some websites saying that they are good and will provide a good uvb output. I have not seen...

Hello, I have had my 1st chameleon for going on 3 months and he is doing fine. I mist his cage a few times a day. I try not to spray him directly, but he tends to flash me some colors and puff up slightly before going into the leaves. Is there a polite way to mist his cage without angering him...

Hello. My veiled chameleon seems to be hanging upside down with his tail balled up under the heat lam. It is a 40w basking light. Will he burn his tail. The temp under the lamp is about 90 degrees st the leaves. Should I get a stronger lamp. I know hes getting the heat to digest I clean his...

So my veiled has split personality. When hes in his cage he hisses and bites at me to the point of not handling him. But when I take his tree out of the cage with him on it to clean his cage he seems to grab onto my hand and climb on my arm to put him back in the cage. It is a male and I know...

There comes a time when you realize that the tiny chameleon you bought that would hiss at you on bad days when you were fiddling with its cage is grown. I was putting a new plant in his cage and as I was putting the rods in for extra branches, it hissed at me. If it was 2 months ago I would have...

Hello, I helped cause something to veiled that will bug me for the rest of the day. I misted my chams cage with a spray bottle and it was trying to get away from the spray. Then I heard a light scream from it before I heard it hit the bottom of the cage. It is fine the second he hit the ground...

Hello, I just noticed today my veiled seems to be setting with his body closer to the branch hes gripped on. He seems to eat and move through the branches at a normal pace and does not show any signs of stress. He did go through a complete shed yesterday. Im not going to do anything until it...

I left for the weekend Friday afternoon. I told my neighbor/ landlord to feed and water my chameleon on Thursday. I get back and my bearded dragons have not been fed and my chameleon not only has not been fed but his mister ran out of water. I put some crickets in his cage for him to eat and...
