Hey Cham Fam,
So I've got a female panther chameleon.
I'm super excited, I got my baby a new viv (24x24x48), got the mistking to set up, I'm looking for lighting advice. Right now I've got the compact ReptiSun 5.0 and a normal household bulb. I'm needing more heat and would like to go linear for...
Hey cham fam,
I'm looking for some advice. This is my first Cham and she's a beautiful female, obviously.
I noticed yesterday she wasn't going for the crickets I gave her and thought that was a little weird. I tried to hand feed a meal worm since she always goes for those, just to see if maybe...
I'm worried my little one is gravid. She's been roaming her viv more than usual. It's actually weird, she's been crawling to the Itty bitty pot that I have some lucky bamboo planted in, while there is a rather large pot right next to it. She's never really crawled on it until now. She's showing...

(My first cham, and I feel like I'm failing as a parent.)
Went to turn on my lights today and pop, there went my heat bulb. I currently have the zoomed tropical uvb & heat lighting kit that came with my reptibreeze startup kit...
Was wondering about sex on this wonderful baby.
Utu is my first chameleon, I'm just loving learning new things about them every day. :)
Will need to get some pictures to show size comparison but also wondering about age!
Thanks so much!!!
Ready for the basic newbie post?
Got myself a panther chameleon, from the (now known, dreaded) Petco.
I'm working on getting him more plants, I really DID not think it was going to be such a challenge with Spring/Summer here. And I'm still battling on what kind of soil to use? Also I see...
