thanks for the idea of trying to introduce an second male to provoke competition. however I do not have a second male readily available to me to do so.
Alright, here's my dilemma. My Female Veiled Cham is finally receptive! :)
But my male shows no interest what so ever in her. She even try's to approach him slowly and calmly. However he runs from her and turns dark brown. He's a lil over 1 year old. he weighs 150ish grams (cant member the...
The couple we bought him from told us he didn't get the attention he should have cause her hubby was in the military and she was with the kids a lot so they put him up in a boarding place and this place was pretty bad from what I understand plus they had him in a really tiny cage there. But I...
Im really not sure of the size I would have to ask my husband but when we first got him and I took those pics he was just starting a shed and he has been eating good and he has been looking better since we got him from his previous owners. Also we did try to introduce him already but she right...
We just recently purchased an adult male chameleon to breed with our female. He came with a full size enclosure and a drip system the people originally put together. Our female is free ranged in our reptile room and has her own water mister and everything. I am looking for some tips on how to...
to clear this up

I have a white 5 gallon bucket with play sand on stand by for her when she is ready to lay. Its not in her tera but located by her cage but on the floor. She sits on my desk roughly about 3ft of the ground.
The rep-cal calcium with d3 is phosphorus free... but still havent found...
that i was not aware of. just been trying to give her the "ideal" environment rather than trying to prevent her from doing what is natural.
guess i should really re-evaluate this then.
okay her eating habits - from what i've read on this forum and other sources juvenile cham can eat and...
chameleons are not afraid of their reflections. cant member where i read it but my cham looks at herself and even walks right up to her reflection and checks her self out. not threatening movemention or agressive actions more curiousity.
more of a "DAM! i look good" type of thing.
Well from what i understand chams wont over eat. i feed her until she wont eat anymore.
about the temps. im aware that i do run a little higher than most, but i live in a very drafty home. It being winter and even with the heater on its only roughly 73 in my place most the time.
so i try...
so would have gotten rid of my dog, sadly enough i logh my cham more on a side note.
:( theres another loki in the world :(
My female Loki is way cooler!!! :p
sounds like to me that she is juest exploring and or trying to get the shed of the bottom of her feet. my female veiled, right after her shed, was more active in her terra and seemed to feel more comfortable with her surroundings.
When she is ready to lay, yiou will actually be able to see...
at that point maybe you should think about expanding to like either a bigger fish tank or buy more 10g fish tanks. and possibly starting to sell or give away some to friends around your area
