    Leon seems very ill...

    Well his calcium powder does have d3, and we're going to get that bulb today, in a few hours. I'm afraid there aren't many vets open around here on Sunday, but I'm going to call around tomorrow to see who can see me. Thanks for your help. This was really very sudden, he'd been perfectly healthy...

    Leon seems very ill...

    My boyfriend noticed today that my Leon was at the bottom of the cage and not moving so good, almost like he was shivering whenever he tried to take a step. I know he hasn't been eating as much lately, but I hear that pretty common with veiled chameleons so I wasn't too worried. He's also been...

    Mauled by my veiled.

    WOW. I know even a tiny snake can cut right through a fingernail, but the is the first I've read about a chameleon breaking the skin!

    Not moving!!!!!

    Take him to the vet. From what I've read here, it's bad when they stop moving. Possibly an infection. Is he eating and drinking?

    cricket cricket where art thou?

    Any bait shops around? Or petsmart isn't so bad. They catch them fresh out of an enclosure for you.

    Why is my velted chameleon opening her mouth and not closing it..

    Are you misting her? They don't much care for standing water, I hear.

    Shipping crickets

    So luckily, we have a bait shop close by. but I looked around online and it's ALOT cheaper to order online! but... how do the crickets arrived shipped? They showed the box. Are they loose in there, and when you open it up, do they all hop everywhere? or is there some extra layers to keep them...

    Let down.

    Well apparently soemone came in and got a nice $400 setup, but it's the principle. i'm happy that it sounds like the chameleon got a good home after all, but they promised to hold the damn thing for me while I get set up. and I do have a vine and plastic liner, it just might be hard to...

    Let down.

    Oh hmm... I guess your right. I lined the bottom with carpet because I heard wood chips could cause impaction, but I didn't even think about the soil in the plants! Oh well, plenty of time to prepare. Just between us, I suddenly realized I have the wrong temperature bulb, too. 75 is meant to...

    Let down.

    Hm... I think I would like to see pics! The more I looked at sellers on line, the more I never wanted to go back to that pet store again.

    Let down.

    I don't know if anyone remembers, but I posted here a while back about getting a veiled. Well, I had the enclosure set up, 48 gallon, live plants, a tank full of crickets ready to go. I went up to the pet store that was holding my chameleon for me, and they had SOLD it. They had it marked on...

    He hates the camera!

    lol! I think they are cute when they try to act threatening. I don't know, maybe leave the camera where he can see it, but far away at first, and then move it gradually closer?

    Newbie to chameleons

    Well I said in the post that I'm taking him home in two weeks. He's still at the pet store D: I really am looking into one of those nice upright screen cages... it'll give me a good excuse to buy Hibiscus anyway. I love Hibiscus. I really only need to be able to handle him enough to clean his...

    Newbie to chameleons

    Okay, honestly, I'm new to lizards in general, and honestly I'm a little nervous about handling them. "Then why would you want to own one at all?" Well, because I've owned and ADORE snakes, but a housemate doesn't care for them. I didn't even want a lizard, but I saw this guy...
