Ok, well recently he's been turning VERY dark when i open the door to mist/feed him. Almost black. With his pattern he ends up looking like a banana that has been in the sun way too long (very dark brown with spots). I'd post a pic but if it's stress related like I'd imagine I don't want to put...

Hi, Just a quick question about the size a male veiled can reach. On the species section of the site it says they can grow up to 50cm. In a care book I have it says they can grow up to 24". Other online sites seem to say around 16". Has anyone ever seen or heard of a veiled growing...

Hi, I was wondering if anyone here knows if it's possible to let a cham bask outside in the sun (that is if we get any this summer) in the UK. England to be exact. Obviously I wouldn't do this at the minute as I'd turn my chameleon into an cham-popsicle in minutes, but I wondered if it's...

Hi, I'm going to take Cassius to the vet for a general check up (as I've not had him long I want to make sure everything is as it should be). Just wondering how you transport your chams to the vets? What sort of carry case would be best? How should i keep him warm while transporting? I'm...

Hi all! Thought I'd show off my gorgeous boy (who has a poorly tongue at the minute :( ) He's an adult male veiled, aprox 1 year old. These were taken yesterday and he's shedding today.

Hi, My cam Cassius has been seen a couple of times lately sitting in his basking spot with his mouth hanging open. Any idea why? He's eating normally and his tongue is in, he just seems to be chilling with his mouth open. Is this normal? Any help is greatly appreciated! Amy :) Cage...

Hi again, Sorry another question that I can't seem to find the answer to online. What is the difference between giant mealworms and superworms and how do I know which one I've bought? They looks like huge mealworms but then so do all the pictures of superworms that I've seen online...

Hi, This might be a silly question but when I'm feeding my cham crickets he won't hand feed. I'm worried that when I leave the crickets to roam around the enclosure he's not finding them to eat them. Another problem being there are so many places for them to hide in his viv, I can't...

Hi, Just wondering if anyone has any advice on feeding? I have an (aprox) 1 year old male veiled cham. I've only had him since christmas so I'm still trying to figure out what he likes. Obviously I know a lot of people stick to crickets as the main food source, is that the norm? At the...

Hi, At the minute my cham's enclosure has a wood chip substrate on the floor. I've only had him since xmas. Since joining this forum I've seen that most people think that no substrate at all is best. Just now however, I came accross a fleeting reference in a post to wood chips causing...

Hi, I got my first chameleon (and his amazing enclosure) for christmas. He is a male veiled called Cassius. I was just wondering if there's any way to estimate his age? Apparently the people at the pet shop weren't very helpful information-wise. He is about 11" long including his tail, his...
