    Sadly... Need to sell my chams

    Well, I don't really want to, but a new work schedule requires me to sell my chams. I have picked up a 2nd full time job and will be gone entirely to much to care for them properly. I would prefer someone local or semi-local that would pick them up, but I will ship if absolutely necessary...

    New "Fuzzy Friend" for Christmas

    My girlfriend bought me a ferret for christmas yesterday, from a ferret rescue. He is a dark -eyed white, about 3-4 years old, and deaf, he is a lover, so he was just to hard to pass up compared to a few younger options. They set us up with any basic need items, but I can't leave things as...

    Couple new pics, it's been a while

    Just a couple new pics, sorry about the quality, taken with my phone. I dont get on here as much as I used to. I got moved back to 3rd shift and now my schedule is completely opposite of the chameleons. I'm not able to photograph and enjoy them as much as I used to be able to and would like to...

    "Interesting" chameleon behavior

    Well my chameleon has started having some interesting behavior. It started about 4-5 days ago and is still continuing. They both always watch when I walk in and out of the room, but now if I stay in the room for an extended period the one(the one in the avatar) will climb down from his plants...

    Couple of feeder questions....

    When superworms turn into beetles, can/will chameleons eat those? Same for mealworm beetles? I don't feed my chams meal worms, but the birds outside like them. If chams can eat them, what are their nutritional value pecentages? Does anyone know if there is any difference between hornworm...

    Silk/Horn worm moth questions

    I am thinking of starting one of these 2 things, maybe both if I can get it figured out. I understand how you get to the pupae/cacoon stage, but after that is where I have questions. I did a search but haven't found anything specifically dealing with the moths. What do you keeps the moths...

    The new cage project

    This has been my project over the last 3 weekends. The new cage. Internal dimensions are 19"D x 54"W x 48"H. A divider can be slipped in from the front and create 2 seperate enclosures, making 2 19"D x 27"W x 48"H cages. I had posted "pick a project" thread with minimal results, so I just...

    The deadliest feeder insect

    I wouldn't try to eat these things if I was a chameleon,but I'm glad they do. I hate these things, they always attack me. I had to battle with one for 10 min. before I finally just decided to squish it and end the fight.(Not the one in this photo) They're trained in martial arts as you can see...

    Some Photos From Today

    He just woke up, so thought I'd post some new pics of him. He is just starting to get some of his colors in now. Hoping he turns out looking something like his "daddy"(in last pic). He doesn't seem to have the hatred in his eyes as much as usual this morning. He did go to his darker color to...

    How much should he eat??

    I have a maile veiled(as seen in avatar). I am unsure on actual age, a guess would be great. SVL is about 3in. He will usually eat 6-8 1/4 crickets twice a day. I have gotten some small Phoenix worms, he seems to like them, and so far the only thing I can get him to eat out of a cup, well...

    DIY: Water Heater

    Ok, I wanted warm water, and I didn't want to spend much money. I used some supplies I just had laying around, but I'm betting this could be made fairly cheaply. Required Parts: 1 - 1g container with lid. 2 - 1/4" couplers 1 - aquarium heater(this one is 25w) 1- Temp Control (not...

    Finally... Some decent pics

    The little guy apparently hates the camera, he always "runs" and hides and I can never get a decent pic. He went to his sleeping spot tonight, and stayed there in his "pajama" colors. Got a couple after he fell asleep too.

    Plant questions

    Where does everyone get their plants?? I live in northern Indiana and none of the greenhouses are open yet, still a month - month and a half before they will. I was kind of hoping not to have to order from somewhere and avoid paying shipping costs and such. It's also still cold here, didnt...

    Feeding stages?? by age??

    This is a great site, plenty of interesting things to read and learn. This is my first of many posts to come I'm sure. I was wondering the age ranges on various feeding stages... I understand the "mouth size to feeder size ratio". I was told by the breeder I should not feed my baby veiled...
