thank you so much
This may have to do with trust too. Some will just jump on the feeders. Make sure you are sitting lower than him with your hand. And do not shove your hand into the cage. Let him come to you. Veileds are easily spooked when they are young especially when they have not had much interaction. I also found that not making eye contact is important when your working on trust building. You end up becoming a threat if you are looking right at him. This can all take time just be persistent.yes i actually have!

this is his second shed and it’s been nothing like the first one! The first time he was shedding from everywhere but he’s only been shedding on his back 2 feet so i’m guessing his body will come soon

todo has been acting so weird with me recently, sometimes when i open his cage he will come running out to seem like say hi to me, but then i’ll try to touch him and he hisses at me

i love the little black dot on bentlys foot, i cant wait for todo to get that big! they get so beautiful i’m in awe!
Yeah unfortunately I ended up getting my rental sold out from under me a few years ago and they only gave me a month to move. We could not find anything local to where we were in Cali so we moved back home to AZ. But finding a rental that would let me have more than one chameleon was impossible. We finally found a landlord willing to rent to me with one chameleon. I had to rehome Bentley and Bane which about killed me. Bane went back to his breeder and Bentley went to someone I knew from a pet store. So I don't post a lot about them. But they were awesome showing their colors. Still use their pics to really show off what resting, fired, up and angry look like with a male veiled.oh my goodness!!! i have never seen bane or bentley but they are freaking gorgeous
