If you are starting out with a Veiled or Panther Chameleon & need some suggestions...

Welcome to the forums. This place will give you a ton of knowledge to keep your cham happy for a long time to come. First thing to remember is everyone is trying to suggest something that works so keep asking questions. Use this site to find everything that I mention. I will try to give links to each. I dont work for this company but they have been very good to me.
Suggested Supplements :
Rep-Cal with D3 (This is the twice a month calcium supplement) - http://lllreptile.com/store/catalog/...lcium-with-d3/

Rep-Cal without D3 (This is the daily supplement)-
http://lllreptile.com/store/catalog/...um-without-d3/

Rep-Cal Hertivite (This is a twice monthly vitamin with beta carotene)-
http://lllreptile.com/store/catalog/...te-supplement/

To "Dust" the feeders means to take the food that you are offering your cham. Take a small cup put a very small amount of the above supplements and the feeders and shake them around the powder will adhere to the food and therefore be Dusted.

Use various types of feeders: Crickets, Reptiworms, Silk Worms, Superworms...

Light needs links (Remember to go 12hrs on and 12 hours off):
This one is the most important (Zoo med 18" Repti Sun 5.0 UVB Bulb) - This will help to provide an artificial light source.

Here is the hood that will light the bulb above -

Then you will need to use a house light bulb 40 W (at first) with a light hood to maintain temps around 80 degrees.

Here is a package that includes a veiled cham but you can ask them to not include and the setup is something like $99

Hopefully this will help you.
