That feeling when your new chameleon arrives tmrw!! #excited

For our veiled he really hates bright orange, bright blue, knit patterns, snake patterns, faux fur & reflective lenses on our sunglasses (especially red/orange lenses). He disks up & pops his gular.. so dramatic! :rolleyes:

You may have to prime the pump.

1 year and 8 months old.

So, we purchased this book a while ago, The Chameleon Handbook by Francois Le Berre... overall, decent! However, I read something in there I'm interested to discuss with you all :coffee: Pg. 58 - "Environment Enrichment. Environment enrichment is the provision of diverse stimuli to promote the...

Aww, new scale baby! Yeah, I would bet he's about to shed - you can see the whiteness on his legs, tail & feet too. It happens quick when they're young!

When's the last time he shed? He looks young - young chameleons shed explosively - might be about that time?

Why are hornworms not a good staple?

Your cage is small for an adult Male veiled, it should be at least 2' x 2' x 4' tall. Has he ever displayed rostral rubbing again the mesh? Honestly that looks horrible. His scales & chin spines are literally falling off - Take him to the vet, I'm not sure what you're waiting for!!

Welcome to the forums! While those chameleon starter kits are convenient, they do not supply all the basics. To start, where are you measuring the temperature at within the cage & how are you measuring it? Also, based off the picture your cage will need a tad more vines & plant coverage to...

Omg haha this video is so cool. I like how they made it a teaching experience on handling aggressive chameleons. This is such an impressive Parsons!

Awww, yay! Happy chams are the best, you can tell he's loving it ♡

Also, Could be mites too..

Are you certain about the fungal diagnosis? He /she isnt just dirty or scratched up? I wouldn't treat the cham with topical chems until you know for sure what it is.. a vet check up after an adventure like that is probably in order.

We use Schefflera, they're easy. We have one in a pot we move around the house / outside for Buddha our Veiled. He's big too, they can hold some weight.

Absolutely stunning!

Wow. An amazing testament of the chameleons overall resilience! ...And I thought our cham falling off my shoulder onto the carpet was bad.. (I'm 5'3") LOL I've read about chameleons & falling - some of them puff up their bodies with air so they bounce, rather than splat. Also, I read about...

...and actually you have a Male veiled & he looks like a handsome young lad! Chameleons generally store their fat in the casque & tail base.. you have a growing boy, so dont skimp on feeding him those nutritious bugs!

Here's the whole, updated setup. Constructive criticism welcome.

Buddha outgrew the last cage set up... so time for a refresh! Found some oak dowels at Home Depot, varying sizes to work out those cutie feets!
