He is gorgeous! I’m so glad you got everything sorted out. 🥰

Hi and welcome! I’m not going to say what your breeder is doing is wrong, as I have no idea of their total husbandry practices. I will advise that if you are using the correct uvb (linear T5 with either Arcadia 6% or ReptiSun 5.0) at the correct distance from basking area (approx 21 cm), you...

That is too funny! They do see other wavelengths than we can see, so maybe he sees something more interesting than just a textured wall. * It is a nicely done textured wall/paint job. Both of my bearded dragons head straight for the textured wall behind my bed when I put them on it. They...

How many are there? They are fairly easy to catch. It just takes slow movements and patience. They don’t bite or sting. I’m not so sure if you need to worry about them breeding unless you’ve got a lot of them. If left alone, they will die within just a few days without intervention.

While most chameleons want nothing to do with us, there are some who haven’t gotten the memo. While my experience with chams is limited to a total of 8 (4 veiled and 4 panther), I have had two male Ambilobe panthers who literally run to me as soon as I open their door and are climbing on my hand...

🥳 Congrats winners! Sorry @Decadancin but there’s TWO ties. 😛

Awesome! 😊 Yes, I’ve found that my chameleons really enjoy their money trees. My veileds have found them to be quite tasty and my panthers are always hiding in them. All appreciate the extra large leaves to drink from. You are most welcome! 🙂

For some reason I always end up with mostly males. The extras make nice treats for my chameleons, although I do feel bad for the pretty little moths. I tried to find info on how to sex them when they are still caterpillars, but there’s not much out there. I did find one thing that offered some...

Meal worms are not good staple feeders at all. If you look at the graphic below, it explains that they are a poor source of nutrition. I think I can count on 2 fingers the number of times I’ve given my chameleons and bearded dragons meal worms in the past 6-7 years. You would do better with...

💗🌺Technically and in the broader sense, we are all winners for having such incredible and beautiful animals in our lives. 🌺💗 But all hippy-dippyness and peace/love crap aside, @Brad who won?

Try: https://www.educationalscience.com/reptile-supplies www.mulberryfarms.com/silkworm-eggs-c23/ Afaik, those are the primary, possibly only sources for eggs. There is Carolina Biological, but they sell only very small quantities, like 25 eggs. You could take a chance and check with silkworm...

I’m not sure about if tomatoes are toxic. I know the leaves and green parts are. I like to err on the side of safety so would say not to use them as a gutload. I have no idea how long roaches keep food or possible food toxins in their systems. @Motherlode Chameleon most likely can answer your...

It looks great! Perfect to have branches at different levels below basking light for your chameleon to have a choice in temps and uvb exposure. It looks like a good amount of branches to my eyes. As your plants grow in they too will be used as walkways. Great job! 💗

Hi and welcome! 🙂 Unfortunately, there aren’t really dedicated breeders of veileds the same as there are for panthers. However, there is one breeder who breeds veileds every now and then, is a fantastic repeatable breeder and just so happens to have some veileds right now...

I just posted some pics of one of my chams and his tradescantia zebrina is directly behind him. You can see how pinkish/purple it becomes. Beneath him the light green leaf is a neon pothos and mixed in is an umbrella plant (schefflera).
