Sadly my chameleon passed away last month, and I was in the middle of building him a new terrarium. So, his old one (medium sized, glass, screen top) isn't really needed anymore (and neither is his new one, but I am thinking I might want to finish it and sell it -- if someone would be interested...

I currently use domes but would like use less real estate. My UVB fixture is pretty flat so I'd like a heatlamp that works similarly.

Please see THIS POST for my FULL CHAMELEON AND HUSBANDRY INFO (doesn't fit in one posting) I posted several weeks ago because my chameleon was laying on the bottom of his cage. I believe he was constipated and tried feeding him some pears (I read giving them oil is actually dangerous?), gave...

Time to upgrade to a mansion! My chameleon (10mo. male) currently lives in a glass terrarium with a metal screen top where the lamps sit, and I have two fans on top which circulate air in the terrarium. I have a misting system set up and Live plants growing from the base. I plan to keep the base...

Funny/weird behavior story! (Or at least it was new for me) Miles (veiled, ~5-6 months) was on his fancy new free range tree, and I had to leave the room for an hour. Having lost him once after turning around for 30 seconds, I now no longer leave him alone because he's so fast! So, I had to get...

It will be a long while before I get another chameleon, but I've noticed a lot of breeders who ship. Is this not traumatic for the chameleons? How do they do with it? Do they adjust well to their owners afterwards? I just want those little dudes to be safe. Before I get another one some day...

Hi, my chameleon just took a big ol' bite out of one of the plants in his enclosure, a pothos plant. All of the plants in his enclosure are safe and cham-friendly, I made sure of that before putting it together. But as far as I know.... Veiled Chams eating plants isn't normal! He has been eating...

I have an automated mister but sometimes I also spray Miles directly. Miles was pooping during a "rainstorm." He dragged his butt to get it clean, and then walked over to my spray bottle, turned his butt toward it, and lifted his foot and tail! I sprayed his butt to his contentment and then he...

My baby sometimes will step onto my fingers, but he's only tried to eat from my hand once. Most of the time he's not interested (and crickets are, well FAST!). He doesn't really like cup feeding in general, and only goes for the cricks when they're free range. Well, today I put a couple of...

Hi! Miles (owned for 2 weeks, baby baby ~1-2 month old) has been eating mostly cricks and isn’t into any worms yet. I notice most people suggest that I introduce them via a feed cup, but I haven’t been using a feed cup! In Miles’ smaller enclosure, there was a vertical log where I would drop all...

"The Chameleon of Cool"... He has my heart!

Hi! New to the forums... got a baby named Miles. I usually feed him crickets and roaches. I've only seen him eat the crickets but he doesn't like being stared at so I probably have missed him eating the roaches, as they're nowhere to be found. I decided to get him a supplementary treat of...

Hi, I have a setup which has a soil base and live plants growing in it. I also have a stand with a potted plant so that there are more vines for my cham to climb on, and a bunch of fake vines and basking spots squiggling throughout. Under the soil, I have a fairly deep layer of volcanic rock...
