    Extremely fertile Yemen female - ever had a Caesarian in a cham before?

    I lost my first panther chameleon to egg binding (according to necropsy). I thought I had the egg husbandry issue under control because her enclosure was over a deep substrate. Basking area 85, with a gradient to lower temperatures. She was apparently healthy, active and thriving for several...

    Chameleon cages

    If you get a carpet chameleon definitely get it from Frank Payne. He will provide you with all the information you need to be a successful keeper, as long as you commit to providing them with what they need. Are your parents okay with the feeding needs of a chameleon? I have a male panther...

    US Potential Veiled Chameleon for Sale

    Can you give a state? or metro area? Maybe someone living close to you can help. I understand being concerned about security, but you may be able to connect with someone close by on these forums. Some other suggestions - do you have a herp vet close by? They may have a client that could give...

    US Potential Veiled Chameleon for Sale

    It would help you sell him if you listed your location at the top of your post. It will be most easy for you to sell him locally. Please make sure whoever buys him knows how to properly care for him. Good luck!

    Progress on Ambanja babies - Eggs shipped do hatch

    Hey Matt, I just sent you an email. I purchased four eggs from you in September (probably from the same parents, as your comment above states). The eggs are looking great. My incubation temperatures have been on the low end of the range, so it may be a while yet before hatching. Do you know if...

    are orchids safe?????

    I realize this is an old post, but most or all orchids should be safe for chameleons. For example, flowers of Dendrobium are used as garnish and food. Orchids are probably not on the "safe plants" list because not many people grow them. I am looking for a source of true miniature orchids to add...

    Potential New Owner

    Most people, when talking about best "beginner" chameleons, mention panther or veiled. If a male panther or veiled chameleon seems to big for your space, consider a captive bred carpet chameleon. Look up Living Art by Frank Payne on Facebook. He is based in Pennsylvania, and is an experienced...

    Prepping to get my first chameleon

    Welcome, and good luck! It is exciting to do the research and build anticipation. I'm fairly new to chameleon keeping, and like you, had quite a bit of prior reptile experience. I have a female panther chameleon I bought from Nick at Canvas Chameleons. She was about 7 months when I got her and...

    Dehydration or...?

    I’m really new here, but I see no one has replied yet. I’m sorry your chameleon is having problems. Your vet will need to do a fecal to check for bacterial or parasitic infection. Two thoughts: 1. Metabolic bone disease - not sure your lighting and supplementation is providing sufficient...

    My new female panther chameleon and temporary habitat - what do you think?

    I'm already thinking about more! But I want to be sure I can give proper care to the one, first. I do have four eggs from Matt Vanilla Gorilla incubating. :) I work at a company where I have access to all kinds of feeders. I am fortunate to have a pretty spacious office where it is not a problem...

    Future first time owner requesting help.

    With all the mist running through my chameleon enclosure, I use an incandescent Exo Terra Swamp Basking Spot, which is splash proof. It seems to provide a nice concentrated basking area for my female panther chameleon, making it easier to create a gradient of temperature and humidity in the...

    Help!! I'm in WAAY over my head.

    I've just read this thread, and you have my admiration, OP! Whether your kid knows it now or not, you are his HERO. Great job! It's nerve wracking enough starting out with chameleons deliberately and having the time to do the research. Getting thrown into it like you were is a wild ride. I hope...

    My new female panther chameleon and temporary habitat - what do you think?

    Hi everyone, I'm pretty new to the forums. I'm excited to find so much great advice and experience here. I'm a biologist with a fair amount of herp and tarantula experience, but not too experienced with chameleons. I've done a fair amount of lurking, research, and making a pest of myself...
