I have a male veiled For Sale that we bought from Tiki Reptiles. I got him in September for my son, and he is no longer interested and I have changed jobs and do not have time for him. He is a healthy eater and has been on Chad's recommendation of supplements. He is out of Chad's Orange Crush...

I just put the crickets and fruitflies in the cage, but I have a lot of foliage so I am concerned they don't move fast enough to catch them, I have had them in a VERY small cage since we got them, so it has been easy for them to catch their dinner.

Yes it is. Sounds like the drinking concern is over. Now what about their new house being too big?

The enclosure is 18in x 18in x 8in and the chams are one inch long (without their tails) I am most concerned about drinking I NEVER see them drink...I have grown very attached to them and don't want anything to happen to them. Thanks for the input.

We have had our two veiled chameleons for about 5 weeks now, they are still VERY small. I have 2 questions: 1) how do I know if they are getting enough to drink? I mist 3-4 times a day. 2) I bought a new screen enclosure for them 18x8x8, is this too big? I am worried they won't be able to...

Are you not allowed to handle them at all, even if they don't seem to mind or when you put your finger down they climb on quickly?

Thanks for the info, I am having a great time with them. I'm glad my son was interested and we got them. I can sit and watch them for a long time. I also hold them everyday, they don't seem to mind.

I was able to get a fruit fly culture delivered and that seems to be going well except that when I feed them, the flies come out of the container too fast and too many fall into the cage. My question is I see them crawling on the chameleons will this hurt them?

I have enough for today, I ordered and my shipment will be here tomorrow. Thanks for your help. How hard would it be to grow your own crickets?

Yes, I have everything else, I am just having a terrible time finding food for them. I have spend about $50 in gas running all over town trying to find crickets small enough for them. I call these places and they tell me they have very small crickets and when I get there they just look too big...

Ocala Reptiles is either closed or they have moved.

No, the crickets are too big, where do I get fruit flies?

Thanks, would you recommend washing with mild dish soap or no soap and lots of warm water? Also, these babies are so tiny I am having trouble finding crickets and worms small enough for them, I was told to be careful of choking. Any suppliers I should know about? Thanks a lot for the information.

I just bought (2) baby veiled chameleons, first let me say I know they cannot be housed together, I have separate enclosures. I am in the process of putting plants in the enclosures. Is it safe to use fake plants? :confused:
