Thanks everyone for the help... he's still alive,and I've brought down the temp.
While his eyes are still shut, he has been drinking. Today, I made him real mad, and he did amazing color displays. He opened his mouth at me, showing how mad he was, and I had a brilliant idea...stuff a cricket...
he hasn't eaten in 3 days at least (since I've hard him) because he can't see his food. I'm sad. I have been doing what LLL reptile said-continue misting w/ warmish water. Hopefully we'll fix this- I'm kinda attached to this little guy.
Thanks Molly!!!
Talked to LLL Reptile. They are always so helpful :)
I'm going to keep misting him and watch him and hopefully its' just stress form the shipping.
Hi Molly!
The Repisun bulb does UVA, UVB and heat all in the same light, so I think I'm good there. He did come out of the box that way. I sent them an e-mail, however I will probably give them a call as well.

Hey all :)
I finally got my darling baby veiled Cham from LLLreptile yesterday. He's darling.
While I have some herp experience, this is my first Chameleon.
He appears to be in good condition, which is good- except he does not open his eyes? He walks around blindly in his habitat, but he is...
I got my baby veiled from LLL yesterday as well.
He looks good, however he keeps his eyes closed. I haven't seen him open them. I'm not sure if I should be concerned or not. I've emailed them for an update.
I'm so excited. Yesterday I placed my order for a baby veiled Cham and the "starter kit". I am so excited, I can barely stand it. I've been reading all day, just so I know I'm fully prepared. I'm not new to exotics or lizards, but new to Chams.
I'm hoping the temp stays reasonable here for the...
Hi!
I've seen some threads form the past, but wanted to get some updated opinions.
I have been thinking for years about becoming a chameleon mom. I'm not new to reptiles- I've hard frogs, iguanas, snakes etc, however this will be my first chameleon.
While I have not decided the type of...
