Hi there I work as a veterinary technician. A fellow dropped this Veiled Chameleon off at our practice- he surrendered him, and we have had no expereince with them except for me- my ex had one while we were dating. He appears to have metabolic bone disease. I bought some calcium and vit d powder, and we have a product called critical care, which is a herbavoire assisted-feeding product. I have been able to syringe a bit of the Critical care mixture around "Neumann's" mouth and he's lapped it up quite readily. Currently he is housed in some weird oceanic cube tank?? I have a heat lamp from a bearded dragon I used to have, so I have that on him. I have also opend the lid a bit to allow some ventilation. I will be getting him a mesh enclosure today, with a UVB light, as well as soe crickets and additional vines for him to climb. I have been spraying the vines with some water. In a nutshell, can someone help me out with what I need to do to keep this guy healthy? He is a very friendly guy, the guy said his daughter used to handle him, hes quite happy to climb along our hands and arms, and settle on us and check things out.
I need to know about the light sources, what kind of cycle to put them on, the diet etc. I will be browsing this forum while I await some advise. Here is a picture of Neumann- "No Neck Neumann"
