Roo, Here is one I have played with in the past. Its pricey but it works pretty well... http://www.buenisima.com/itm00039.htm

This should go without saying, but water and electricity do not mix. No matter what type of bulb, fixture, cord, etc. the lamp should not be sprayed and should not be mounted inside the cage. A bit of overspray happens and will usually not cause problems but the risks outweigh the rewards when...

Please use caution feeding fish to reptiles, or any other animal for that matter. Feeder fish are kept alive in crowded and unsanitary conditions through a nice cocktail of chemicals. They are often heavily parsitized and in poor health when they arrive at the local petstore. I personally...

I really hate that I'm even getting involved here but this is a bit much, even for me. Butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA) & butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT) are FDA approved preservatives used to preserve fats and prevent fat rancidity in foods. There are limited findings that suggest it could...

I realize that you are trying to help but your information is incorrect, calcium is absorbed more readily in an acidic environment. Calcium carbonate which is what most supplements are made from is alkaline and as such more acid is needed to absorb it properly. and as Zerah mentioned, leave...

I don't really care to get involved in all of this but I do have a few points... The fact of the matter is that people are doing research. As Chris stated we have a project in the works now and several others on tap. Conducting research takes time, money and space and trust me, we aren't...

Chameleons do have ears. They are not the typical external ears that we think of but they do have an ear structure. There hearing is limited to low frequency sounds as far as we know. Chris Anderson is doing research on infrasonic communication in chameleons. You can read more about Chris'...

Ch. calayptratus are known to eat vegetation and there have been reports of F. pardalis and Ch. melleri consuming vegetation as well. There are a few other species which are poorly represented in the hobby that have been reported to consume vegetation

Applesauce on it's oown contains little to no vitamin A, sweet potato added to the mix does provide beta carotene but no preformed vitamin A. Recent research has suggeted that chameleons may not be able to efficiently process beta carotene into usable vitamin A. In addition to this the small...

Yes, veiled consume vegetation in the wild. This consists mostly of flowers and leaves. The feeding a fruit to calyptratus is a captive practice that really only has it's basis in the fact the they WILL eat it, not that they should. There are many of us who believe that these animals are not...

First, calm down. Take a breath. Second, as I suggested in my PM to you. You need to do ALOT more research before you buy a cham, a cage or even pick out a place to put it. Read EVERYTHING on the following sites, then start looking for animals and supplies. www.chameleonnews.com...

house fliy pupae can be purchased from several sites, I prefer www.grubco.com. Grasshoppers cannot be purchased in the US. They are considered a pest species by APHIS and therefore cannot be shipped across state lines. Most all feeders can be gutloaded to some extent. Silkworms and...

Huh? Improve their climbing? I can't say that I've ever had a healthy chameleon that had any difficulty climbing or one that needed any improvement in that area. if you have a chameleon that is having difficulty climbing I'd go for a vet visit instead of creating obstacles.

You can dust your feeders in a 32oz deli cup and not lose much of the powder during feeding. Gutloading is a must. A quality gutload will cut down on the amount of supplemental vitamins that you would have to use. Keep in mind a quality gutload is not dog food, fish food or laying mash...

Pinkies are very fatty and the content of their gut can often lead to issues with your chameleon. I see very few instances where feeding pinkies would be needed. A cham that is fed a varied diet of properly gutloaded insects, has exposure to UVB and is hydrated would never have a need for...
