    Is it bad for chameleons to be able to see each other?

    I have my Jackson's and Veiled cages on opposite sides of my room about 12' apart. Just a couple days ago, my Jacksons apparently took notice of the veiled and now he spends a lot of time staring at the Veiled's cage. It's really strange how he stares really intensely and ignores me when I'm...

    My Jacksons Chameleon Escaped (but I found him)

    Earlier I got home after being gone for several hours. I looked in my chameleon cage and he was nowhere to he found. I searched for about 2 hours and actually took most of the plants and branches out and he was Nowhere to be found. Apparently I didn't secure the top latch and he was able to...

    Fruit Flies for Baby Chameleon

    I recently got my second chameleon, a baby veiled. I am feeding him hydei fruit flies (the larger variety) which I culture myself with Repashy Superfly, so I guess technically they are "gut loaded". I also have given him a few very small meal worms, but most of his diet is fruit flies. He just...

    Does your chameleon refuse to eat when you're watching?

    I got a Jackson's chameleon and so far I haven't seen him eat at all (I've watched him drink a few times). I set up a homemade feeder using a milk jug and piece of screen for the insects to climb on but he never goes after the food. However, the crickets and dubias keep disappearing and I'm not...

    Light placement for a Jackson's Enclosure

    What do you think of this light placement? I have the 5.0 UVB along the right side of the cage instead of going across. Immediately to the left is the heat bulb which is 43 watt. To the left of that is a 23 watt 6500K bulb. Is it best to provide a UVB side of the enclosure and a side without UVB?

    Deep Heat Projector

    Just wondering if anyone has tried using an Arcadia deep heat projector on a chameleon's basking spot. Arcadia claims that it "mimics heat from the sun and provides heat deep into the muscle tissue" and it projects infrared A and B. I bought one for my leopard gecko and I've noticed that he's...

    Repashy Calcium Plus?

    So, I have been reading multiple threads on calcium and the general consensus seems to be calcium without D3 each feeding, calcium with D3 every other week and a multivitamin ever other week. But a few people mentioned simply using Repashy Calcium Plus as an alternative to all of that, if I'm...

    Where do chameleons poop with a free range setup?

    I love the idea and the looks of these free ranges, but is it kind of messy? Nobody seems to say much about where they poop lol.

    New Enclosure Critique?

    I just set up a 24" x 48" screen cage. It has plastic fencing on the sides to help with climbing. It has an umbrella plant, 2 large exo terra vines and some sticks. I think I need more horizontal branches and was thinking of getting them from the woods if that's okay. Lighting is a T5 zoo med...
