Thankyou so much i already understand the physiology of skin colour changes and i know they respond emotionally but i was having trouble figuring out how to explain the link of behavior to color change. This helped my head fee so much clearer. I am doing a study on how behavior stimulates...

could i just use a combi all the time instead of 2 separate bulbs?

I just got back from a funeral i had to be away for 4 days my chameleon had to be left, he is absolutely fine, however i noticed the uv bulb wasnt on and they had been left on a timer the basking lamp was on, so i checked and the bulbs blown but it gets worse it checked the fixture and its one...

Also i understand that chameleons do not really like handling in general

Just wondering if you are going to be on of the lucky ones and have a charm that walks on to the hand and doesn't seem to mind handling, are they like it straight away or has it still taken time? I ask because ive had my new veiled peetree since Sunday and he doesn't like being handled but he...

Yeah ive notice mine changes emerald green when he sleeps too and shows different colours when basking and other things etc and ive only had him since sunday weird isnt it, thanks i was thinking the same

no :( but maybe i could see if there is a pattern to his colour change as in how many times does he change? which colours does he change to most and then tie it in with research on and theory on what the change is for? or record when he changes colour and see if he seems to dislpay certain...
