I am offering up this chameleon for adoption to a good home. I helped him to recover from MBD but he still cant shoot his tongue very far and hence needs close monitoring and/or hand feeding to make sure he is successful with feeding . As I am starting a new job soon, I just wont have the time...

He would be in the cage until he is close to a year old. After that, he would only be in there for a day to a couple days at a time or perhaps at night on cold nights. Is it the handling of him or change of environment that you think will stress him out? Currently, I put him in the outdoor cage...

CB Male Veiled born June 19, 2012

Hello, I live in Southern California and I have a 3 month old male veiled currently in a 20"x18"x18" and he is getting ready to move up in cage size. I have an awesome 6'x3'x3' outdoor setup for him as well. After he is about a year old, I plan to move him permanently outdoors. However, I will...

By the way, sorry I forgot to reply regarding the plant. It is a schefflera (umbrella tree). I'll probably just clean the plant off when I get a chance. Thanks for all the help! Alec

Yes, they do look like little green gnats and aphids is what popped in my head when I first saw them --- that probably is what they are. Mantids sound like a cool idea, and I know that chameleons can eat the mantids, so it would kind of be like a two-fer, but should I be worried about the...

The live plant in my chameleon's enclosure has some new growth near the top of the cage and I have noticed small green insects living on the new leaves and stalks. Has anyone else experienced these bugs? I haven't seen them before these new leaves grew. I'm not sure if I should regard them as...

bump* anyone have any advice for ideas on the situation?

That sounds like a good idea. Only thing I would worry about is the chameleon eating the sand and getting impacted. He is such a little stinker, like I said before, even if I put river rocks, he shoots his tongue between the cracks and eats the soil.

Have you done this before? I have a lot of live plants so I'll have to do a few loads of soil. How long and what temp should I do it at?

Hi Guys, After I put in new soil, after a couple of weeks there are a whole bunch of tiny little flies in the enclosure that definitely come from the soil. I have tried a couple different soils(organic, gardening, vegetable) but I end up with the same problem every time. Is there any kind of...

Well, good news is that he ate 4 crickets today and drank a lot of water from my hand and weighed in at 91g which is 7 more grams than yesterday

Yes, I have a hand sprayer and the mister goes off for 30 seconds every 3 hours. Thanks for the advice Matt. Off to school!

I don't know if this is a good picture or not to see his enclosure. I used the camera on my laptop. http://www.flickr.com/photos/46377277@N05/4349221884/

Yes I did. And as I mentioned before, his feces have remained looking normal now for about 3 weeks. However, it still does have a slight odor. When it was runny it smelled foul. Is it true that the feces should have no odor at all?

well that is about how his poop looks. I'm going to wait and see if his weight stablilizes first. If not then I'll get him back to the vet

I do have a mister(Zoo Med's Habba Mist) that goes off for 30 seconds every 3 hours throughout the day.
