    My Vet Clinic asked if they could photograph my Cham for their Facebook page. It was earlier this week around election time. I think it came out pretty good. :)

    Chameleon Shed

    Thaakur, my Jackson's Chameleon started shedding today. He is my first chameleon and this is the first time he started shedding in my care. Its absolutely fascinating to watch. The pics i have seen in the forum dont even come close to describing how "out of this world" the process looks. He is...

    The Chameleon Perch Project

    I have a Jackson's Chameleon (Xanth) who's rather timid and doesn't seem to like to be held. But he still loves to walk around and explore his cage. His cage is a 18x18x36. Looking back, I should have invested in a 24x24x38 so that he'd have more space. :rolleyes: In anycase, I wanted the guy...

    Should I switch from 5.0 UVB to a 10.0?

    I had a question about UVB Light Bulbs. As recommended on the forum, I currently use a Reptisun 5.0 for my Jackson's Chameleon (Xanth). Its on top of a 18x18x36 screen cage. However I have noticed that pretty often he will climb up a branch and sit himself as close to the UVB as possible, and...

    Question about Silkworms

    So I bought a cup of "small" Silkworms online. It got delivered fine, all the worms were alive. 0.5 inches small. I tried to move the silkworms from the cup into another container (see image below). I managed to move almost 70% (approx) of them into without any issues but almost 30% of the worms...

    How to get my Jackson's more interested in Dubias?

    In the setup I have I use a feeder cup to feed my Jacksons Chameleon (see attached pictures). Now, when i put crickets in, they climb up the mesh and move around a bit. That seems to immediately get a feeding response going with my chameleon and he comes running over to feed. However, when i...
