Long time no talk! I have a one and a half year old veiled chameleon, I have had him since he was about 2 months old. He is is a 4 ft tall and 2.5 ft wide all mesh enclosure. Basking temp is 85 degrees, ambient is around 65-70, humidity sticks around 45-50 with spikes in the high 70’s around...

Hi guys! I was wondering if anybody had any tips on keeping their chams pothos alive? The one in my dudes enclosure is in a 12 inch pot with drainage, so I figured it was big enough and established enough to handle the foot traffic and munches. But this is now the second time I’ve had to remove...

I’m being so emotional looking a baby pictures right now, how did my little tiny meanie turn into a medium sized meanie??

Hi all, I mostly just need to vent and complain to some like minded Cham folks. I went on vacation for about a month, I left my pets with the same pet sitter I have used for the past few years and they have always done an AMAZING job. Until this trip. Before leaving I showed them exactly what...

It’s around 80 degrees here today so I brought Jameson to sit outside with me while I gardened. Now that we’re back inside he is fully acting like a crackhead. He refused to go back in his enclosure and after a literal 10 minute fight with a lizard and he was finally back in, he’s bouncing off...

i haven’t posted in a little while but can we all just talk about these little pink feet? how is this allowed? how can anyone be this stinkin cute?

Jameson is around 5-6 months and was showing off some really pretty new colors in the sunshine today : -)

This might be a silly question but I am always overly cautious w my pets. I have seen a lot of people say Golden Pothos is recommended for chams and have one of those in w Jameson currently. Are other varieties safe as well? I have a Silver Anne and have been thinking about moving that in as...

My boy is around 5 months old and is still eating about 15 gutloaded/dusted crickets each morning. Around when should I start transitioning him to eating every other day? When we went to the vet to get acquainted and have a fecal test done he weighed 57 grams, a 14 gram gain since we brought him...

Hi folks. This morning when Jameson came out from his sleeping area to bask, I noticed a little black spot on his foot that wasn’t there yesterday. I assume it’s bruising, but I’m not sure what it could be from. He can climb with and still has a strong grip with that foot, should I be concerned...

Hi all!! Unfortunately, we got a little scammed and my Chams new larger enclosure we had commissioned fell through. I had seen some interesting set ups using old china hutches that had been refurbished to suit a Cham and am thinking about getting a project like that started myself. I’m fairly...

i saw my little do what I think was a yawn this morning. Is there any way to differentiate this from over heating and gaping? I didn’t even really realize Chams could/needed to yawn. I had just turned his lights back on and his temp was 74 degrees so I’m not particularly worried, but I’d still...

We are going to see a vet for the first time this Friday, no health concerns just bringing in a sample for his first fecal and getting established with the exotic vet near me Incase we need to visit in the future. What are some things I can do to make it as minimally stressful for my Cham as I can?

When I first brought Jameson home and a few weeks back, handling wasn’t in question. And when he did get handled during cleaning he would be a very dark dark green which I assumed to mean he was stressed and unhappy being around me. Now he’s handled probably everyday for 10ish minutes. I use a...

I’m just astounded at how quickly my guy is growing !! And at how happy he was to crawl up my arms and shoulders after he had his first little shower :) also please excuse my selfies lol I just had to show off my little

I clean/change out Jameson’s reptile carpet every Thursday as well as clean the plastic leaves etc. and while I do this the young man sits in my little jade tree in the window. Apparently I’m the worst mom in the world for trying to take him out of said jade tree and put him back in his...

I currently am misting by hand 4-5 times day in order to keep my chams humidity in the 50-70% range which is fine because I am home most of the day besides leaving for classes for a couple hours at a time. I'm starting a new job up soon and have been looking into an automatic misting system and...

I’ve never bothered J while he’s been sleeping until last night when I got home after his lights had turned off. Such a spunky little man it was adorable to see him fast asleep and not grumpy about me being around :love:

How do your chams feel about Dubias? I have a little colony that I have maintained for my leopard geckos, and I think I have a few that may be small enough for little Jameson :) They’ve been being gutloaded with mainly sweet potato and different greens, and well as the occasional over ripened...

We have had my sweet boy for almost 1 week! He’s already shown improvements in not being as stressed in his new home so we decided to try and handle him today, it went much better than expected and I am so thrilled! With a little coaxing via cricket, he made his way into my hand and then took it...
