So it been almost four months having my cham Randel. He is currently going through a shed right now and he is extermly grumpy. I actually had to carry his cage with him in it to get him a shower since he was very snappy towards me. He's still upstairs due to the extrem cold weather we have been...
With the temp this past week I hand to move Randal from the basement to the dining room. It was getting down to about 0 degrees a few of the nights so up he came. He's normally very mellow and not very shy. This morning when I got his feeding cup to clean it and give him some crickets he snapped...
My Randal when ever i mist his cage sits there for about a minute. As soon as he gets nice and wet runs about 3/4 down his cage and waits for drops to pool on the screen and shoots them with his tongue when they fall and stop by him. He seems very healthy and hydrated. Always has white urates...
Its just been over 2 weeks with Randal. Everything is great with him. He is eating and drinking like a champ. He came out of the cage for about 10 mins tonight(to cold for him to be out any longer). He even crawled on to my kids arms. It was a priceless moment. They were so excited. Anyways just...
A week ago I got my first chameleon Randal. I got 100 crickets from my local pet store but I'm pretty sure they gave me 150+. Now my basement stinks to high heavens. My question is how do u guys combat that awful stench. I can't wait for my Dubai colonie to get going. Thanks in advance.

I plan on getting my first chameleon on Saturday at the reptile show. My question is when should I get some crickets and start gut loading them?
Thanks in advance.
Just finished my first cage build and set up. Just wanted some thoughts and suggestions. It is 18x18x36. I've got all the lighting and dripper set up. Humidity spikes to 80% after a misting drops down to 40% after it dries. Still working on the temp for the basking area it is only getting to...
Just finished building my 18x18x36 enclosure. Just need a few tip and ideas for the bottom. Preferable something that I can make an easy drainage system. Thanks in advance.
First off I'm new to chameleons. And I've been dong a ton of research. I'm currently constructing an 18x18x36 all screen cage. Which I plan on making a 24x24x48 to move the chameleon in when it gets bigger.
