So this is not specifically chameleon-related but a general reptile question. I am trying to make a water pool for my Chinese water dragon, but to make it hold water I need some kind of sealant and modge podge came to mind. It says it's nontoxic but defiantly wanted to check with the experts...
So I juvenile male Jackson chameleon who insists on climbing in the screen of his enclosure and I can't figure out why he isn't comfortable. He has plenty of places to hide, basking temps are 85-90 degrees with an ambient of 70-75, humidity goes up and down all day from 35-60%.
So I have just about had it with going to Petco almost every day to get low-quality, overpriced feeder crickets, so I'm open to suggestions for a reputable site where I can have a few hundred shipped to me. I do live in Connecticut so it can get pretty cold. Right now I have a 20 gallon or so...
Hello all! So I will be getting my juvenile Jacksons chameleon on Friday, and today I plan on setting his habitat up. I have a 24in x 24in x 48in screen cage. I would love to see some of what you did for your cham.
I am thinking of getting a juvenile Jackson's and I already have a 24inx24inx48in screen cage, which seems huge when compared to the small cham. Would an enclosure that size cause any problems for the Jackson's?
So I have had a veiled chameleon for almost a year now and he is doing very well, however, I was thinking of adding a Jackson's (separate enclosures of course). I know the very basics of Jackson care but I wanted to do my due diligence and get all the research done before seriously considering...
So I have a male veiled who is almost an adult. He has an automatic mister that goes off every four hours for two minutes. After a misting, the humidity jumps to almost 70 then after ten minutes it drops to 50 and a half-hour after it goes down to 45-50% where it stays until the next misting. I...

So I live in an area in New England that is about to get over two feet of snow Wednesday evening into Thursday morning. There is a good chance we will lose power so I am looking for ideas to keep my veiled happy and safe before the storm hits. I have him in a 24X 42-inch screen cage with an...
So I have a lot of live plants in my veiled enclosure that doesn't get a lot of sun, I was thinking of adding a full spectrum light for the plants but wanted to check and make sure they are safe for him.
There are a few things that I am noticing, and I am most likely stressing over nothing. I have a male veiled just under a year old who is now displaying more vibrant colors than before. he used to go from dark olive to light green, but he has been bright more frequently recently. He is otherwise...
I have the monsoon solo which is great, but the options that make the most sense are every four hours or every two hours. Four hours doesn't seem enough considering I don't have a dripper and would prefer not to get one. I have live plants to the mister helps water them as well. I would like to...
So this is still a work in progress. My veiled is still young (about 6-7 months) so I wanted to provide good hiding spots for him, so I added a few live plants for him to crawl around. All plants are chameleon safe. I have a water fountain that he loves, but I also mist him twice a day. I was...
I have heard conflicting things about this UVB lamp. It is a tropical long fixture with a long tube bulb. On the packaging, it says T8 Fluorescent but I don't know much about it or lights in general. If not what are better uvb options?
By adult male veiled has just started shedding and I notice he has been a little lazier than usual. Is this normal? I can't remember how he acted the last shed.
I have an adult male veiled who I love more than anything. I enjoy burning incense but I wonder about its effects on a chameleon's respiratory system. I haven't burned a stick yet because I wanted to check first.
So I have a male veiled who is almost an adult. I have noticed that he moves around a lot/ exploring his cage. I have him in a 24x48 enclosure and he has quite a bit of space. I have heard mixed things about this so I was hoping to hear what you guys think.
So I have a dripper going on in my veiled 24 by 48 enclosure, and I'm wondering how long I should let it drip. I worry about pools of water collecting on the bottom, and the driftwood constantly being wet. I do not have an automatic dripped or any substrate, and hand mist him twice a day.
