I recently started feeling my cham fruit (strawberries, watermelon,papaya) and noticed that he has lost interest in crickets (I cup feed so I know how much he eats). Before feeding him these fruits he would gobble crickets up. He has eaten maybe 10 crickets in the past 6 days and is roaming...

Thanks for the replies guys! Im glad you enjoyed the pics :D Matt 1851 your exactly correct! His eyes are totally fine. Chams tend to retract/close their eyes when they are "shooting" for food so they avoid any unwanted eye injuries from a rouge tong. dmaizer you make a very good point...

Heres a pics of my guy I wanted to share. I think hes one hansom young man! 1. showing of some nice colors. 2. chomping on some strawberries, yuuummmm. 3. bulls eye.

Iv always wondered this myself? when even I feed my cham he always licks his chops. hehe

Hes a small guy for his age, Im gonna say around 10-11 months.

Just two pictures of Veiled loving the sun!

Thanks for all your input guys. I confronted him about the whole situation we had quite the argument about it also, he was very aggressive towards me! I figure if I got him mad/upset enough over it he would eventually take the initiative and be a responsible pet owner. I brought up a lot of your...

A vet visit was the first thing I mentioned to him. He wasn't too keen on spending the money. I just want to get as much help here so I can pass on the info if he decides to risk not taking his cham to the vet.

I witnessed a extremely sad sight yesterday. I dropped by a good friends house, who I haven't seen in forever, to say hi and to see how his male Veild was doing. The moment I saw his cham I got the worst feeling in my stomach. He mentioned to me that his cham wasn't doing so well but I had no...

hey i thought i would just thank you guys for the help! I followed the instructions from the LRI post. I gave him a few warm showers and he seems to be back to his old self. eating well, drinking and no longer gapping his mouth. thanks tons!:D

it is 1/8 of an inch aluminum window screening and no blueprint was followed i designed and made it myself, it took some trial and error but in the end i was very happy with the results!:D thanks for the advice i defiantly agree that i need some more coverage and live plants. hopefully my...

hey guys, just figured i would post a pic of the enclosure i built. My veiled has been living in it very happily for the past 6 months or so. The four sides are made of window screen and the back is a piece of styrofoam that has been carved into my desired shape and then covered in various...

hey, Im looking to get some more real plants for my enclosure and I really love the ones you have in there. what are there names?

thanks for your help! i have come to the conclusion that it was just a very slight thermal burn. The heat lamp was very close to the cage and i have since moved it away. The swelling has gone away and his skin is looking almost perfect again. thanks again!

i have a 4 month old veiled chameleon he has been perfectly fine up until a few days ago. I noticed his back leg looked as if it was burned and a bit swollen, the pictures i have attached represent the problem at its worst. When he changes colors it tends to go away or become less visible. He...
