Hello all! Let me just say, I DID NOT DO THIS TO THIS POOR CHAM! I have a very healthy chameleon of my own, I know how to take care of them. I don't want anyone attacking me over the condition of this cham. So, I was walking around a swap meet last night and saw this poor cham at this...

Hello all! This weekend I moved Charlie to her new cage, which is MUCH bigger than her last one! We went from a 16x30 to a 24x48 and I think she likes it! It has a lot of foliage for her to hide in, a bunch of walk ways, and there’s even a real plant hiding in the back! I don’t have her laying...

Wow, it’s been a while since I’ve been on here! I’ve officially had Charlie for one year, and she just laid her first clutch two days ago, at 18 months old! She laid a whopping 21 eggs. I wanted to share my experience with her laying because I think others can learn from it. My mistakes...

Hello all! It’s been quite a while since I’ve been on here, but I wanted to let you all know Charlie is doing well! Last time I was on here, Charlie had a gnarly tongue infection and some parasite issues—all of which have cleared up beautifully! Her growth is a little stunted, we assume from...

Hey guys, I just got the reptisun t8 for Charlie. It was the only one they had at my local store. Is this a good linear light for her? I can return it if needed.

We just got home from the vet and things are okay I guess. We were prescribed some anti inflammatories to work with the antibiotics, and we hope this will help the swelling. It seems the spitting the tongue out is from discomfort. I just have to keep an eye on her to make sure she’s pulling her...

I don't know if I really need to fill this out as I already know what the issue is, I just don't know how to deal with it. I'll fill it out anyways. Chameleon Info: Your Chameleon - Charlie, female veiled, between 7-8 months, have had her about 3 months. Handling - It was only during cage...

While trying to give her her nightly dose of liquid food, she kept reaching out towards the syringe, so of course I handed it to her. Then she didn’t want to give it back. You’d think that means she likes it....nope. She just didn’t want me to be able to give her any she’s a sassy pants.

Hi all! So, quick update on Charlie. Last weekend I posted in search of advice or help because Charlie's chin area was swollen. It continued to get more swollen as the days went by, so we took her over to Dr. Greek's place, where we saw Dr. Moore. It turned out to be a tongue infection. We...

Hi all. Here goes: Chameleon Info: Your Chameleon - Female veiled, between 7&8 months. I've had her nearly 3 months. Wow, seems like longer! Handling - Rarely. Every other week or so for cage cleaning. Feeding - I feed Charlie between 10-12 small/medium crickets every other day. Crickets are...

Hi all, Up until now, I've been using the double dome fixture for Charlie's UVB and basking lights, and I know they're definitely not recommended. I'm looking to switch to a linear UVB fixture as I always see those are better. My current cage is 16X16X30, so I'm looking for something compatible...

Does anyone else feel pleased when their Cham sheds? Charlie had just finished a shed when we got her, and now this is her second shed since, and it’s such a relief to see her healthy and growing! I feel like sheds are a sign of that. Anyone else? Here are some pics from today. She was climbing...

So a couple weeks ago, we switched from letting the crickets free roam in the cage at feeding time to cup feeding in an effort to gain her trust. Well today, Charlie finally let me hold the cup while she eats! She usually just waits until we attach the cup to the cage, but she was lenient today...

Shenanigans with Charlie. Took this picture and it looks like she was guiltily opening up a package! Thought it was cute haha. I put her in this box while I cleaned and redid her cage and she is quite the escape artist. She didn’t make it past this point though.

Hi all! I have a 16x16x30 screen cage for Charlie. (Small, I know, but so is she right now!) I’m looking to add more walkways and fun stuff inside her enclosure. How do you guys keep the dowels and wooden sticks attached so they don’t fall? I’m having difficulty with this. Do you just like...

Hello all! Here is Charlie's info again: Chameleon Info: Your Chameleon Veiled chameleon, female, in my care 3 weeks, 5 months old, body is about 4 in long. Handling very rarely as of now. Beginning to try cup feeding to gain trust. Feeding 10-15 small crickets a day, usually. Her appetite...

Hello all! I have a five month old female veiled and right now her diet is crickets and supplements. I was previously just going to the store every day for her daily crickets but that got old fast. One, gas money, and two, they don’t feed their crickets very well. So I have started just buying...

We were worried that Charlie was a little sick so we made the hour+ trek to Dr. Greek's office, where we saw the lovely and kind Dr. Moore. Thankfully, she said Charlie is looking great and that we're doing well as first cham owners! We feel beyond relieved. Also, it became very clear today...

Hi all. Stressful day for us and Charlie. Here is the info: Chameleon Info: Your Chameleon Veiled chameleon, female, in my care 2 weeks, assuming 4-5 months old, body is about 4 in long. Handling Has yet to let us hold her, occasionally lets us touch her without running, but sometimes she...

Hello all! Two weeks ago we purchased our first chameleon, a female veiled named Charlie. We got her from PetSmart so we don't know her exact age, we're guessing about 4-5 months. I have a couple concerns. First, here is Charlie's info: Chameleon Info: Your Chameleon Veiled chameleon, female...
