First Reptile?

[yojon3000]

OK I have never had a reptile and i want a chameleon to be my first pet i know chameleons arent supposed to be my first reptile but ive been doing my research about them i will be getting a veiled when i get money and i know about getting the repti cal for theyre crickets i have a book i will be getting a veiled chameleon package from lllreptile i know about misting and about a dripper and might be getting a hibiscus or ficus tree and put it in all organic soil or i might get fake plants. i know they get stressed easily and theyre not supposed to be picked up from the back >.< you have to put your hand under and they will climb on. i know about having the crickets gutloaded.substrate i wont have any i will just have a papertowel. I think i listed most of the stuff i have researched

do you think i will be able to take care of a veiled cham

yes, i think you will be able to. But some things to do
-look at many example pictures of enclosures
-learn A LOT about supplementing and gutloading
-learn about proper lights
-safety issues such as heatlamp burns
-proper watering techniques

Those are just a few off the top of my head, and by the time you get a chameleon, even if it is months from now, you will still learn every day after you get it. They have a lot of "Bells and whistles"

Yes you have done some good research.... but do not forget that the Research NEVER ends! You should do all that you can to have a happy healthy chameleon <3
