Alrighty guys. He’s back home from the vet and the issue was solved! He should be okay. Basically it was a genetic medical condition where fluids designed for reproduction were building up in his intestines hardened and clogged. They were able to flush it out and he’s alright. I’m saying this...
Update, his behavior is the same. They didn’t have the light fixture at the nearest 3 pet stores so I’m going to order one on amazon. He’s still laying with his eyes closed, he hasn’t eaten, pooped since. When I tap him he wakes up and moved around and then heads back to sleep. I’ve spent all...
It’s usually a pretty bright white. Nothing has changed behind his behavior. He doesn’t seem to be in any pain either. Is it possible he’s just getting old :( - I’m going to head to the pet store tomorrow morning and make sure all my fixtures are up to standards. I’ll also grab that multivitamin...
Thanks! I did just read up on the whole feeding situation on here so i just came back from the store with some large crickets and the flukers food & water gel for them to eat. I do give him D3 once a week but I forgot to add that. I'll be sure to buy the multivitamin right now. Any good brands...

For those of you who are reading this now... lol... crickets will only chirp at night. But they can be tricked out of that noisy mess. Take the crickets and lock them in a closet and turn the light on inside. Make sure there is ventilation. This way the crickets will not chirp as the believe it...
Thank you all so much for the information! This community is amazing! Do any of you know a good way to help him feel safe? I am very uncomfortable covering his cage as the lights are very strong and forest fires are very serious around here.
For a small chameleon, locusts are large. Locusts have long legs and wings and other parts that make it very hard for younger chameleons to digest. Even the smallest of locusts have caused small impaction in some chameleons. Small or soft worms along with a few crickets is a very good meal for...
I have a 10 month old veiled. I know exactly what I signed up for. I purchased a veiled as an owner that wanted an animal that needed very little PERSONAL attention. I signed up for a veiled knowing it was a "do not touch pet". His first few months he was always happy and friendly. i got to show...

Awe so cute! Mine never likes to come out. Haven't taken him out in 2 months... to be honest i only care that he has a happy and healthy life and if that means me out of the picture ill still do it :D
I was in love with it! He was a little Jackson. Unfortunately, my brother couldn't take care of him for long. So my brother gave him to a family that won't stop talking about the little guy! I miss him! My veiled once ended up falling asleep with me and waking up in the morning with me (this was...
