Getting a baby make veiled chameleon tomorrow and need help finding him a name! I was thinking pickles but any ideas would be great.

I once had 20 or so in my plant that had accumulated over the year, scared the crap out of me at first.

You didn’t at all.

Thanks for the reply, good to know.

Is a bulb necessary to supply heat? Could I get a non bulb heater like the nighttime ceramic heaters that can be put in the same place as the bulbs and just use it during the day? Or does the bulb supply something I don’t know of besides heat.

I got it at PetSmart and I’m planning on getting a refund later today.

Thanks for the suggestion on the different bulb for everyone who suggested it. I put this bulb in to test the basking spot temperature and it popped within an hour!

I forgot to mention. I have two money trees I’m putting in there when I get him. But I’m look into getting some more.

Below are pictures of the enclosure I plan on using for a male juvenile veiled chameleon I am expecting soon. The plants and cage were cleaned with 1:40 bleach and were steam cleaned. This cage was previously used to house a sick chameleon that may have had diseases and some bad bacteria so I...

That’s a pretty nice looking cage you got there.

sorry I keep posting in this thread but given the situation with my previous Cham I think everything needs to be checked more carefully and you people seem to know this. The drainage system I used a while ago for my old chameleons is in the picture, it goes from this into a bucket that is dumped...

I’ll look into it, and I’m sorry about not listening before, I was panicked and taking her to a vet wasn’t really an option. I should’ve just cut my losses.

According to google: Coccidia do not live for very long outside of the body. They may survive for a week in intact feces, but the parasites will die within a few days on clean surfaces that are exposed to direct sunlight So I will probably just wait a few more weeks and clean the stuff again...

Thanks for the response. I’m going to try a few things tomorrow to get the chemicals off and I’ll look into ammonia. But sadly I used all of the supplies I had so I’m probably not going to be able to afford replacing everything. (Just a reminder that my first cage had normal things in it. The...

One quick question to anyone who sees this, I’m planning on getting a healthy chameleon within the next week. Unlike the last one I will spend more time looking and will get a healthy one. I’ll post all of the materials I have and see what feedback I get. But before I do I just want to know if...

I didn’t really think about the words I used. Everyone understood what I meant and you are the only one that seems to take issue. I didn’t trade her for money and I didn’t want to say given because that makes it sound like I was given little choice. I also didn’t want to say took because people...

I was working on lighting and in the end I did bring her to the vet. She didn’t survive the drive though. I was suggested some stuff but I think most of it was a little inapplicable. I do appreciate your response in particular. So thank you.

I’m going to wait until a few weeks, it shouldn’t take me too long to get money saved up. On top of that, if you didn’t read, I have had chameleons before that lived good and long lives. I do need some new light bulbs and a linear bulb, but besides that everything should be suitable.

I should have looking back, it was a spur of the moment thing knowing that she wouldn’t be there next time, and I’m sure the odds of survival weren’t much better with the vender
