    How high should the branches go?

    I have a male veiled chameleon. I'm finishing up his new enclosure this weekend but I need to know how far away from the lighting his branches should go. He's about 8 months old moving into 46"Hx 35" W x 17D piece of furniture (with sides/top cut out replaced with screen). New misting system...

    Reptisun vs arcadia lighting

    Does anyone have a preference of one over the other for veileds? I've read that the reptisun 5.0 or the 10.0 can be used. What's the difference? The enclosure is 49" tall x 36" wide x 18" deep if that makes a difference.

    Can I take my chameleon outside?

    It is really nice outside, mid 70s, he's still small and his enclosure wouldn't be too hard to move. Could I take him outside while I do work on my laptop? I'd like to just carry him outside for a bit but he's... rude lol.

    How common are tongue injuries?

    My chameleon got the tongs for the first time today. He's never hit tongs before but I just got new hornworms and they are pretty small. I figure that must be why he hit the tongs because he did it twice today. How worried do I need to be about a possible tongue injury and want are the earliest...

    Should be worried about this bump?

    This is Randall, he's about 6 months old. He's got this bump on his neck. I've done some looking into it and some think over supplementation and others think lack of hydration. What are you thoughts? He's acting normal, his urates are white. I recently increased his misting schedule. My old...

    Picky eater

    I'm trying to diversify my veiled's diet. He's only about 2 months only and he will only eat crickets. I've tried dubia, hornworms, soldier fly larva, and even wax worms for a treat, and he just has no interest in anything but the crickets. I'm going to let some of the soldier flies pupate and...

    Show me your lights!

    I currently have a dual basking/USB set up that I know I need to upgrade for my baby veiled. So can you show me your lighting set ups? Bonus points for what it is and where you got it but as a visual learner just the pics would be super helpful.

    Humidty issues

    I'm struggling to get my humidty above 40% for any part of the day (even at night). I've closed in 3 sides of the cage with a shower curtain and have a humidifier running. I'm starting to think my hydrometer is faulty. It's a thermo-hygrometer and thermometer part seems to work just fine. Any...

    I'm THAT person....

    Yes, I'm THAT person. I impulsively brought home a baby veiled chameleon without having anything I needed. No enclosure, no lights, no food, no experience. Since then I've been watching videos/reading articles/listening to podcasts as I don't also what to be THAT person who kills their pet...
