I'm cool with workload/ hobby side of it. I just want he/she to be able to come out of it's cage and sit on my keyboard or what have you, while i hang out.
lol that kind of puts me off...
maybe i should just get a gold fish. :(
hahaha, but seriously... argh i'm so on the fence. i really like the idea of having something to look at in my room, and having a little hobby is fun but hmmmm. i suppose you could always use gloves when you handle them...
Thanks for the vote of confidence. lol.
how much, roughly, are these digital gagues? i've been adding up my costs and i'm looking at 600 CAD or so.
oh and do chamelons bite? lol!
I'm so on the fence about buying him. I have so many "what if's". I'd be pretty unhappy to spend all this money and time if the little guy got sick or died due to my lack of knowledge. I went through this all with piranhas before but keeping that water chemistry perfect was amazingly hard...
two other things i was wondering.
A) you guys posted that you leave the UV light on half the day, is that the same with the heater lamp or does that always stay on?
B) how much does an adult eat a day, roughly...
I went and checked him out today. It IS indeed a veiled. They wouldn't let me put a deposit on him though, which kind of sucks.
But while I was there I did notice that sprayer that is posted two posts back or so. when pumped up well, will that spray for 10 minutes? If so, you could setup a...
That's probably what my area will look like in that picture below, where it's in the closet there. I have an open closet in my room with the doors off that it'd probably go in. Those enclosures look perfect. Are the bottoms of them just as open as the sides? How do you control the dripping...
thanks for the quick replys... i know it's hard answering questions that probably every noobie asks.
So I should put a thermometer somewhere in my room and try and maintain an 75 degree room temperature? that sound easy enough.
also, when you say misting for 10 minutes... does that...
I'm trying to get together all the info I can before I gopick up a chameleon but I'm having a little trouble gathering it all.
So far, I'm pretty sure I'm going to get a 36" tall by 24 by 24 aluminum screened enclosure. A few questions I have are..
1) What are the essentials for...
my mother toldme it was a veiled cham but i haven't even seen it yet. my mother found it at our LFS and apparently it loves to be handled. i'm going in to put a deposit on it if it is infact a veiled cham and i won't be bringing it home until i gain the proper knowledge and get the proper...
So far this one seems to be my best option. Looks like decent quality, has a waterproof bottom, nice doors to open, and screen sides. However, the largest it comes in is. 24*18*24. Is that tall enough? I would have thought 3-4 feet tall would be better...
I live in BC, Canada and will likely be buying my supplies from somewhere like PETSMART. I'm new to chameleons and came here for information before I pick up my chameleon.
Anyways, what is the best cages out there for sale? I like the idea of those eko terra terrariums. They're nice and...
