Jasper after his morning drink =]

Why you gettin me all wet foo?!?!?!

My male veiled (pickle) runs like crazy when I start spraying him. Then he stops turns around and starts drinking. I love the turning around to tell me he is going to drink.

Does Jasper get over being wet? He didn't look like he was in take off mode yet. Jasper in a very nice chameleon.

He loves being sprayed... I will start soaking the opposite side of the cage from where he is chillin and he will dart towards the area and stop in the mist... sometimes he comes right at the spray nozzle (depending on if I have the white or red one he hates red) He is weird... he hates me every other time of the day though

The veilds not liking human company seems pretty common

Jasper looks great! It's hard to believe he's grown so fast. Have you tried him on a tree outside of the cage? They are generally much nicer when not caged.

Hey renzo, im sure you tried many things but i got my veiled to like me by this one watering trick, He had a particular bottle too that he liked drinking from the nozel, but hated me so i began to hold the bottle with one hand on the pump and the other by the nozel end. he continued to drink from it then i would every other time slightly touch his gullet/neck with just one finger and slowly progressed to a few fingers.......as time went on he would use my hand as a step to the nozel, and after a couple months of this practice he has become a cool mofo! takes a lot of patience but if it is a tame veil you want, then i promise this will do the trick. i now use this to tame all my chams and it works like a charm, never fails!!. good luck

It is hard to believe how fast he grew... I do have a question for you Jann... How much does Luie weigh?

Oh at my new house there is this perfect little tree in the yard... I can hardly wait to move there to get him in that tree!!!! I will have massive amounts of pictures of Jasper and Bagera!

I dont mind him hating my guts... I dont need to hold him or anything he is my place of zen... I will sit outside his cage and just watch him for hours... Oh so relaxing!!!
