Im new to chameleons. I dont know to much just what I have read on the net. I have had lizaed befor but she was a iguana. The lady at the pet store said I should get a graceful because there friendlier and there easier. I was thinking about a Jackson or a Veiled.:( Im just confused I have read so much in the last few days. So the Question is which Chameleon should I get? And then I can Just look at one kind instead of all of them. :DThanks for the help.
 
Welcome to the Forum :)
There are many experienced cham people here that will be able to help you will all your needs and questions. Don't hesitate to ask as they love to help you.... as helping you also helps the Chameleons :)
 
well lets start by saying its not "easy" to take care of any chameleon's what you have to do is research research research.Iv had my chams for almost a year now(jan 2) and im still learning new stuff! I started with a panther chameleon but that was after a good 1 or 2 of reading and stalking the forums :p for new advice....I would start with a vield chameleon they are more "hardy" IMO

best of luck finding you chameleon!


dont be afriad to correct me on anything as im still a semi newby :p:D
 
I would start with either a veiled or a panther. Jacksons and graceful's require more exp. Unless you're fixed on getting them from the pet store check out our sponsor websites. They all have excellent chams for sale.
 
What kind of PETSTORE? Please, do not buy from a chain store like PETCO or PETSMART. Everybody on these forums, I did, and people I knew always had problems from these pet stocking grocery stores.
 
Hello, welcome to the forums. I started with a panther, but a lot start with a veiled. Both are good started chams. But I agree a cham is not an easy pet, it os also not a cheap pet to properly maintain. I also would not buy from the petstores mentioned above. Have a look at our classifieds. But you may face the same problem I do. it is too cold to ship into or out of Montana right now.
 
Thanks

Thanks so much for all your help. I will start looking at Vailed and Panther. Dont worrie I wont by from Petco or Petsmart. It is a store that is in the area. Which I will ask you guys were to get the chameleon When tha cage is ready for Him/her I know there not easy I ment easy for chameleons.:D Thanks camimom for the blog It has help all ready.:D
Thanks a bunch again
 
More Quesyions

Im go to getting a Vailed Cham.:D The Price was the deciding factor.
I have some more Questions though.:p Im looking for vines for my cage. I was wondering if any one likes one brend over the other? Im going to get diffrent sizes and mix and match twists.(Exo Terra, Zoo Med, T-Rex, or another kind)
I see that alot of people have bamboo sticks but can you but the live plant with them? I have found lots of plants I can and cannt use but I have never seen anything about bamboo.
