So today I had a chameleon 'incident' occur that saw my young, and very treasured male veiled Dexter be attacked by a new and older (& somewhat 'mean') male veiled chameleon Norman, who I acquired 4 days ago from a friend who was downsizing. Norman found his way easily into Dexters outdoor cage...

So all of my chams are in x-tall glass exo terra's with a compact hood with 2 coil 26w UVB bulbs and a dome light with a 75 watt basking bulb. I have six chams, and find that when it comes time to change out my UVB bulbs for new ones, it costs a helluva lot of money buying 12 bulbs x $25.00...

I have the opportunity to buy a set up complete with a MistKing at a fairly reasonable price however the model number the seller provided for the MistKing does not seem to exist (at least) any longer when I checked the MistKing website. The seller was reading product info off of the pump over...

In my (almost) 7 years of keeping chameleons I have come up with a few tips & tricks that have helped me in the ultimate care and contentment of my chams. I figure if I've got my own idea's as to how to keep a happy, healthy Cham then I'm certain other members must have some of their own ideas...

So a friend called me about 8 months ago to tell me about the chameleon her son's best friend had recently purchased. It was a beautiful 4 month old male red bar Ambilobe. The friend (24 years old) had purchased the Cham AND the entire set up, "as is" from a pet store - not having a clue how to...

I don't often hand feed my chameleons for this very reason, but today I fed my (coveted) 6 month old male veiled baby 3 freaking crickets by hand and on the third one his tongue hit and stuck to my finger - but he didn't know, it stuck and he CHOMPED down - I could hear the crunch - and my heart...

Since I haven't been on CF alot during this summer I thought I would post some new pictures of my crew. I have had a loss (RIP Camo), welcomed two new members to my scaley family and have introduced a new set-up to my babies which has helped with humidity and ultimately healthy, regular sheds! I...

RIP My beloved Camo. You were the best chameleon a Chameleon Mom could ever hope for. I love you big guy....and miss you terribly. xx Camo when I first got him at 14 months <3

I wanted to share some pictures of the little girl that has captured my heart since losing Isis in early April. Daisy came to me at 11 weeks and is a wonderful addition to my family! She's growing fast and is developing the typical veiled attitude. She's a darling! ;) I put a...

Today the sun was shining warm and bright so I took the chams out for some natural light. here are some pics of Kane (1.5 yr veiled), Daisy (14 wk veiled) and Turq (1 yr Nosy Be) Kane's coloring fascinates me when he's outside! Hope this weather continues so I can get them...

A couple of days ago I noticed my 5 year old male veiled, Camo was not using his back right foot much and he began to fall a lot due to imbalance on his vines. He's an old guy with chronic eye problems but he's been generally healthy. He's been my least high maintenance cham since I got him 4...

In the past I have taken my chams outside in the summer when it's been warm enough, but never for long periods of time. This summer I wish to change that and hubby is currently constructing some climbing panels, etc and I have been gathering plants for a free range. I know more and more people...

It has taken me a week to sit down and write this, as I've been pretty upset with the passing of my beloved little veiled girl, Isis. We had been through alot together: She came home from the pet store at 11 weeks with pneumonia which lasted a good 6 months, but which we fought successfully...

I picked up Turq a week ago from a guy selling him on Craigslist and have been extremely happy with his condition even though his previous owner didn't really take proper care of him. Luckily he was only with him 4 months! I was taking pictures of him today and once uploaded, noticed that one...

Found this 1 year old 'Nosy Be' for sale on Craigslist and decided after seeing how he was living, that he needed help. I showed hubby, and surprisingly, after he saw the pictures he also agreed that he needed rescuing. (wow, was I shocked - no pleading or begging involved!) I picked him up...

So I'm in Vancouver, Canada - about a 20 minute drive from the border into Washington State, USA where there will be a Repticon show in May. Now, I'm not indicating this is what I'm gonna do, nor am I condoning any illegal activity but I'm wondering if anyone knows the legal consequences of...

Camo on the 'portable' free range I put together from fake plants bought off Craigslist! This is my 5 year old's first experience on a FR! :)

Arrggh! So Isis, my female veiled had surgery in December to have a large clutch of eggs removed after she had trouble laying and then she was spayed so she won't lay again. She has recovered fairly well but her incision didn't fuse with the stitches so my vet, when he removed them, glued her...

So my rescued veiled Kane has only eaten 2 hornworms and 4 crickets since coming home with me 8 days ago and while I'm not overly concerned about his food strike (nothing in 4 days) I am concerned that he's missing out on calcium supplements and today was multivitamin day and he missed that too...

I am so excited to have a new member of my chameleon family! Kane is a 1.5 year old male veiled that was originally found living in an aquarium with one branch, no plant and a dirty waterfall. He was rescued by a member of this forum but proved to be more work than she expected when she already...
