He's still kicking. He still tries everything he can to keep me out of his territory lol

Popping my head back in after an extended break from the forums. While cleaning my boy Kyle's cage, I found several small snail shells. I can only assume they came from the soil I used to pot the plants in his cage. Has anyone else ever found these small garden snails in their chams...

Late to the party on this but this maintenance helps a lot. Just cleaned out 2 nozzles that haven't been spraying properly. I got so much crap out of those nozzles. Now they spray like new.

Providing a proper enclosure with plenty of plants is where I would start.

Did we scare the OP away?

Agreed. Once I switched to LEDs i was disappointed in the lack of color my corals gave but I noticed a significant increase in growth and polyp extension. Now i use a combo fixture with both T5 and LEDs for color and coral health. This makes me curious to see how the chameleon react to...

Coloring looks normal for stress or excitement. Here is an old pic of my boy Kyle when i first got him over 3 years ago. He never liked having my camera pointed at him...

Geez... Reading all this is giving me flash backs to 10 years ago in the reef aquarium hobby. LEDs were gaining traction while the mainstream used the proven T5 fluorescent bulbs for the reef lighting. Now, almost everyone uses LEDs for some aspect of reef keeping even though T5s give the best...

I agree as well. Clumsiness is not a characteristic of a healthy chameleon... Usually it mean there is an underlying issues affecting their coordination such as MBD. As a side note veiled are known to be territorial or defensive. It's not unusual for them to come off as aggressive. A...

Doing good. He's settled in nicely and eating like a champ. He loves banana and squash and runs up to me when he sees it.

Lmao he's beautiful. He looks a little mean though

Im starting to think he's got a rebellious side... He keeps flipping his food dish and picking through it for his favorites. His previous owners fed him canned green beans and other canned veggies and fresh fruit all the time. I make a nutritious salad for him and he picks the fresh green...

He calms down fast once you get a good hold of him and let him lay on your arm.

His name is Turbo lol. Its fitting because he is fast. I picked him up out of the bin we were transporting him in and before I realized it he climbed up my chest and over my shoulder onto my back then back up to my other shoulder. My back is all scratched up from him now lol. Gotta file...

We got him home last night and he is settling in well. He was giving me the stink eye this morning while I was getting ready for work lol

Thanks all! We will be bringing him home wednesday night. The owner gave me the wrong dimensions of his current cage and there was no way to fit it in my little toyota haha. Borrowing my uncles truck to haul that home. Met him last night and he is really calm and observant. Perks up when...

Awesome. Thank you for your input. Im getting excited to meet this guy and bring him home.

I think at this point my biggest question is supplementation. Reading a lot of conflicting threads about the use of a D3 supplement and even basic supplement schedules

Got a call on Saturday from a friend of my aunt asking if we could take in another reptile. After talking to my wife and learning more about his current care situation, my wife gave me the green light to bring in the iguana. Current owner claims to not have enough time to properly care for him...

I know you mentioned you have the correct lighting, dusting, ect but can you give us specifics? UVB bulb type and strength? Lighting schedule? Basking temp? Supplements dusted on feeders? Dusting schedule for each supplement?
