My 6 month veiled chameleon rarely turns bright green and remains darkish brown most of the time. Even while hes basking, he will still remain the same colour. At first, I thought my temp wasn't high enough so I got a new lightbulb and now his basking temps range from 80-95 F. Is this normal?

His name is L.A.D. and was purchased from Will Hayward when he was 1 1/2 months if I'm correct. (If Will could verify this, it would be great) He eats about 6-15 insects a day. I recently built this cage with my dad and still need to make a drainage system, but till then, I'm using a garbage...

My dad and I just built a new cage for my veiled chameleon with dimensions of 4' 2' 2'.(pictures will be up soon!) But I was just wondering if I would need a bulb that produces 75watts or 100 watts? And do I need to change my Reptiglo 5.0 UV tube to a 10.0? If anyone out there has the exact...

I know that chameleons get stressed at the mere sight of one another but is it the same with seeing other reptiles, specifically, bearded dragons?

I'm building my own cage with aluminum mesh and wondering the ups and downs of it. Can crickets chew their way out? Is it durable even when my chameleon gets big? Thanks.

I was just wondering, does anyone use the "cricket keeper" sold in pet stores? I've been having trouble with mine lately. I keep medium sized crickets in the holder with no egg carton but they still manage to get out through the little holes. Anyone have a solution?

Hello, I have a male veiled chameleon that is turning two months in a couple days and started noticing something unusual. My temperatures are 80-85 degrees in the basking area and 60-70 degrees else where. In the basking area, my chameleon would open his mouth and sometimes I would catch him...

I have a two month old veilied chameleon and there has been nothing out of the norm till today. While I was putting crickets inside the cage, my chameleon turned all bloated and had brown dots all over him. Is this normal or should I be worried? Thanks

Hello fellow chameleon addicts, I have a 2 month old veil chameleon and I think its time to move him out to a bigger enclosure. I plan on building one but before I can get started; I have some questions. 1. What type of mesh/screen would be best? 2. What measurements are YOUR cages? (to...

Hello everyone, I recently got a month and a half veiled chameleon. Everything has been fine but I started noticing whitish crust around his nose. Can anyone tell me what it is and how to prevent this? And I was just wondering, what do I look for when examining the "feces" of my chameleon to...
