Hey all,
So we're back at it again with another Veiled Cham. I am sure many did not remember but our last lil guy passed away from his battle with his RI
It was terrible, but we were both set on having a chameleon, and a veiled none the less! Fortunately for us, since it was only 3 weeks after we purchased Optimus the breeder was willing to replace him with a new baby from a batch that was hatching in September (if you live in Spokane, WA go see Jodi and Joe at Rasmussen Reptiles in the Northtown Mall, doesnt get any better!). So we went and picked out a new baby that actually hatched on the day we went in. He was so little. His name will be Wiz, after Wiz Khalifa, since she used the colors black/yellow to mark his tail so we knew which one was ours.
I just wanted to share our new cage for the next Cham. Everything has been cleaned and sterilized and even a few new things have been bought. All the temps/humidity cheks out as well. I want the lil guys first day home to be smooth sailing! I am open for any suggestions as well - I want to add more plants to the back but wanted to keep it simplier from last time where it seemed over crowded and the poor lil guy stayed in one spot. This time I want him to see the obvious "highways" that we built for him.
Wiz on the day he was born (9/6) -
Wiz (one with both eyes looking at us) on Thursday (10/6) -
Wiz's Enclosure (18x18x18 Exo Terra Screen) -
(Sorry for the phone pics, havent felt like dragging out my camera, maybe once the lil guy is home tomorrow)
- Matt & Britt
Ps. Also picked up our first crested gecko last night, he was only $50 and I already had the cage from a friend who did not need it any more. I thought I might put Wiz in it, but he is much too big now - he has grown into quite the biggums in a month. No name for him yet, mainly cause I dont know what his/her gender might be
