I have experience keeping reptiles, and I have always wanted to keep a chameleon, so I’ve researched it in the past, but I’ve definitely expanded my knowledge in the past week! I’m sorry that your chameleon didn’t make it, and I hope you have had better experiences, definitely best to play it...

Hope to take ya, love showing people how beautiful the Everglades are! I will warn you though, its not easy! Lots of late night walkin' and 'skeeter smackin', and they do a good job of sitting unmoving in thick brush 90% of the day, it takes a good eye and a methodical search to find them, but...

I completely agree, disregarding the health of an animal is never ok, and I know chameleons especially have historically been dumped often due to the difficulty of caring for them. Similar to what you said regarding the sale of WC's, one angle I think about a lot regarding the pet trade is the...

Generally, any invasive will compete against native species for food, habitat, etc. so there is a strain put on the carrying capacity of native ecosystems when invasives are present. While a bit of strain here and there is manageable (some invasives have found a place in the food chain and...

Thank you for your input, and no worries, I made this post specifically so everyone can share their views on it. I absolutely care to hear all sides weighing in :D! I'm inclined to agree with what you've said, especially with all the examples you have mentioned. Regarding FWC's invasive species...

Happy hunting!

This is an image from a recent trip, Found this female hanging out in a Brazilian Pepper Tree, her colors were truly stunning! I am legally obligated to disclose that I did not re-release a non-native species as that would be a violation of Florida law. While confining a wild animal to...

Thank you for your expertise, I am working on keeping them separate still. I'm planning on building a divider to give them each a side of the porch to explore whilst keeping the enclosure cageless. I can't bear to subject them to a life of confinement after they've grown up in freedom. I'm...

(forgot to hit reply and I don't know how to delete messages) Kinyonga, thank you for the through reply! I have separated them for the time being, I did want to note that this pair was found close together on the same limb, and have seemed tolerant of each other, but regardless, I have separated...

Kinyonga, thank you for the through reply! I have separated them for the time being, I did want to note that this pair was found close together on the same limb, and have seemed tolerant of each other, but regardless, I have separated them they keep switching plants to “hang out” with each other...

She is a legend! I’ve seen her posts all over the forum, I’ve absorbed lots of great info from her. Don’t worry, I’ll be around! I’m a big herper, so I’ll likely begin posting field observations once I get settled with these guys and can get back on the hunt for more populations and species...

Thanks so much for all the info! I currently have them on ficus Benjamina and an umbrella plant. Planning on making a free range style enclosure, with opaque dividers to keep them out of sight of each other. Just bought the T5HO and all the supplements, I also bought some silkworms to feed to...

Hello chameleon forum members! I have been reading post obsessively for about 4 days now attempting to learn as much as I can about keeping veiled chameleons. I recently came about 3 wild caught veileds unexpectedly and have been frantically gathering supplies and building a habitat for them...
