Welcome!!!

Veileds and panthers are the best starter chams.


Many of our site sponsors sell them, as well several members on the forum who have posted in the classifieds, myself include.

I sell veileds, and have several available for rehoming.

We have a lot of resources here, such as care sheets, and plant lists, and any questions you have you can post and we will all help!

Thats nice that your dad is geting involved with the cage build, are you also ready to purchase the additional items required?

Agreed, go with a CB Veild or Panther

Here is my favorite step-by-step cage build guide. I looked at quite a few while starting my own cage.
