Hey,
I'm looking to build a gigantic custom cage in my backyard in SoCal. I have all the framework and flooring done and am now trying to figure out what screen is good.
Fiberglass? Aluminum? plastic?
I've read that metal screening can do some damage to chameleons feet.
I'm...
Hello,

I have one adult male Veiled (beautiful coloring)
and
I have one adult female panther chameleon

Hello! I havent been on here for awhile.
So…I know you want the husbandry form….but Im finishing up work and crazy busy and trying to take care of my cham.
I wish I could.
My panther is about 7 months old. He has had the same set up since I got him. Always very active. Same lights...
I have had my veiled for about 4 months now, he receives the same husbandry as my panther who I got at 2 weeks old and is now 6 months old.
For some reason my veiled has always loved running on the floors in my house. He will ignore the wonderful free range I give him and go straight to the...
So other than caring for my chameleons, I love being a professional photographer.

Just caught my chameleon boy, Hubble, relieving himself and I noticed something I have never see before: his urate was like an egg in that it had clear mucus (like an uncooked egg) encasing a solid white urate.
What is up with that?
I have a 3 month Veiled is the same room as my 2 month panther.
I have had my veiled for a month and I have had my panther since 2 weeks after he was born.
My Veiled is under his basking light the majority of the time. My panther runs around most of the time and basks every now and then.
Here...
Is this something he will grow out?
My almost 2 mo old panther wont eat pinheads.
He ate a bunch of them the 2 times i have ran out of flies and bought some crix for replacement. He was really hungry from waiting so long for food.
Other than that, nope. He will run laps around his...

It has 2 temp probes so you can take temp in 2 different places at the same time. It also has a hygrometer.
So I just came back home from lunch and I went to say hi to my chameleon Hubble...
The first thing I see in his cage is a baby anole. No Hubble.
How the heck did a baby anole get in his cage!!!!! Weirdd!
At first I was thinking Hubble somehow morphed or something lol.
Eventually I...
My cham is now one month old and eats just fruitflies.
I tried introducing him to pinheads a few weeks ago but he only ate them the first day. I guess he didn't approve of him new feeder option.
So what's next on his menu? Im a bit stumped since he doesn't enjoy a well-gutloaded cricket hour...
Hey....so I have been looking for some articles about the Health of fly cultures and the signs of an unhealthy culture. I have found a few but it seems the information is limited to mold (green/blue being normal), mites, and death black dust.
I can't imagine those are the only things I need to...
Soft White 60W good for a heat bulb (vs. natural light 60W)?
I only have soft white right now and i wanted to give it a shot and see how my cham likes it.
First day...
A few days ago. I know I am not supposed to, but he loves being held!
Today (now 3 weeks old) in his new home (his terrarium wasn't cutting it)
I have a glass terrarium for my 2 week old.
It keeps the humidity extremely stable, which is great.. But my problem is with the balance between misting and humidity in his environment.
I need to be watering him more....but the terrarium doesn't dry and and stays at 70+ humidity constantly...

So whats all this talk about Compact UVB bulbs blinding or being horrible for chams? Does that really happen?Whats the science behind those comments? And if scientifically proven, why are they still on the market?
How long does it take for a baby panther cham to get accumulated to his new home? He's dark at times and unhappy seeming...then under the same conditions he is lively and happy and has a nice color to him. He eats a bunch and is very well hydrated (known from looking at his fecal matter)

Anyone use Repashy Superfly for wingless fruit fly gutload?
Do you dust with calcium when using superfly? Theres supposedly a good amount of Calcium supplement in the gutload formula...but is it enough?
Considering the chlorine and contaminants in tap water, what water do you prefer for misting?
Distilled? Bottled?
Im asking because I have been using bottled spring water and if my cham accidentally gets hit with water during the mist he closes the eye/eyes that get water in them. He seems...
