That's why I'm not catching any around here, I know they spray pesticides around my townhouse. That's also why I'm hoping to find someone who is breeding them, that way, the second and third generations will be clean and tasty for my cham.
Just a suggestion, but what about some plants down near the bottom. My enclosure and some bigger, tallers plants near the top, and a few small plants near the bottom, with the vines running back and forth between them all, and my cham seems to enjoy walking through all of them. Just a thought!:D
Hey there all!
Is anyone catching can breeding their own snails and/or slugs? I'm looking to buy some from someone who has already cought some and now has some babies they can part with.
Thanks!!!:D:D
I'm trying to learn as much as I can about my cham's body language, so that I can hopefully give him what he wants, and understand the little guy better. He is a Jackson and his name is Wilson. Does anyone out know any body language or anything thats unique, or characteristic of Jackson's...
Ok, that sounds good. How many insects should I coat at a time? All, or just a few?
Also, he hasn't really been eating much at all, which I'm worried about. I don't know how much he weighs (I'm going to get a scale today), but he doesn't look like he's grown at all, and looks very thin to...
I have a 2 month old (that's a guess, the pet store didn't know) male jackson. How does this sounds?
Calcium with/out(?) D3 3-4 times a week
herptivite once a week
I have both calcium with, and without d3 beause someone told me I should use both. How do I use them? Do I need one more than...
Howdy!
I have a 1-2 month old Jackson. Does anyone have any recommendations for good books to help me learn more about him??
I've already read:
Reptile Keeper's Guides, Jackson's and Veiled Chameleons by RD Bartlett and Patricia Bartlett

Is there anything wrong with the repti glo linear uvb 5.0 bulb? I once told someone I had one and they told me to get rid of it and get another one. I got the other bulb, but why do I need to get rid of it? Is it harmful? or simply not as good as others?
So, I know you aren't supposed to give your cham a lot of mealworms because of the hard to digest skin, and it's best to wait until they have just shedded before using them. BUT, how do you get them to shed?? Aren't you supposed to keep them in the fridge? If they are alseep they can't really...
I'm a cup feeder for the most part. I'm starting to think that he really just doesn't like it when I watch him eat. If I hold a worm in a cup he often won't eat it, unless I'm looking away, or put it on a leaf and walk away.
Could lack of eating have anything to do with not getting enought...
A flavour spice????:confused:
Do you mean using just regular spices from the kitchen? Do you have a recipe I could use?
I just got some silkworms and superworms in the mail today. So far he hasn't eaten any, but I've only tried once. I know he loves slugs because I gave him some that I...
I've read some conflicting reports on what Jackson's eat. A few things I've read say just insects, others say both insects and veggies. Which is it??:confused:
