Hello everyone,
I am a new owner, not by my choice but due to a crazy uncle!
He gave my 10 year old a veiled chameleon thinking she would just love the tiny little thing. Well of course she did! And now I am taking care of this tiny little princess . I dont mind tho, I am a bit of a critter person and have a couple large tanks with moon crabs, fiddler crabs, frogs and hermit crabs.
Anyways I have been on here for the last couple weeks reading like crazy but still have a couple questions. Like....
Do these little guys carry salmonella?
How old is this little gal we have? she is about 3ish 4 ish inches long.
I made a screen cage its about 2 1/2 feet tall by 1 1/2 feet wide and deep.
Been feeding friut flies and pin head crickets dusted everyday with reg calcium and only once with the calcium with d3 in the last couple weeks.
I have a uvb bulb and a 60watt spot light. I also have a hybiscus (sp) with rocks over the soil so she dont eat any of it and face vines to climb on. Just newspaper in the bottom of the cage.
Please tell me if im doing something wrong. While she was an unwanted gift she is here now and I plan on giving her a good home.
Thank you for all your help!!!
I will try to upload a couple pics but im not sure how to yet. but ill figure it out im sure
