Haha, I'm not sure if veiled chameleons grow faster. I know she isn't as big as you think, my hand is all closed but she isn't growing significantly! Every time she sheds it's like BAM bigger within the week! Do you have pictures of your panther?
I could use a stone, it really isn't a problem unless I touch the metal cap while it's been heated up - it cools down within seconds of taking it out of the light source and I'm able to comfortably do so with my fingers. I will eventually get the lighting fixture that I want, however... it...
Hahaha, JannB, my Juno did that to my husband... climbed right on top of his head and just sat there. I, ofcourse, took photos :D I just don't feel good yet posting photos of me and my family :eek:
The medium reptibreeze 18"x18"x30"! (My chameleon is 3 1/2 - 4 months old) So soon she will be upgraded, but you can see how a 75w can be so hard to work with on a cage that size! Especially since it's a strong light in my opinion.
lol, I know, I was constantly fiddling with the dripper!! Right now, I actually put using the dripper at a pause and am using just the Monsoon mister. It's on for 2 minutes every two hours and my girl is well hydrated (no sunken eyes, great skin and perfect urate) also it keeps the dry Cali...
So, my 60w went out the other day and I had spare 75w that I had gotten a while back but never liked using because it had a very hot focal point and because both my heat and UVB share a fixture, I didn't like taking the UVB up further away for the heat to be ok.Also, at the moment, I'm tired of...
I've only gone to petco as I've never liked petsmart. I can't contribute on how different they are but I actually got my chameleon from the petco in SoCal and the two individuals working in the reptile/amphibian department were, to my surprise, very knowledgable and talked with me for about an...
that's where I was heading with it all. It isn't difficult to have someone read something over and sign it in the least. It won't change someone but it could and providing the information could very well help an outcome. I cannot stress how a high price-tag hardly deters someone from buying if...
Instead of raising the price of any chameleon, I would rather see requirements given to a prospective buyer, an interview and a quiz along with a signature. Besides, it isn't about buying the chameleon... like any animal, it's about caring for the animal once in possession. This would prevent...
So, I absolutely love four horned chameleons. I'm not ready to own one yet but I'd love to see photos of your four horned chameleons (If you have one) and something you have to say about them :)
Sometimes putting your hand in such a way that they end up using it to get from point A to point B is a nifty way to trick them into going onto your hand. By all means, you don't want to be forceful about handling them. When I found that mine likes to get out of the cage on her own, I used it to...
Be consistent :)
Don't move him around all over the place. Let him get used to something consistent. Don't switch his schedule a lot either and it's ok to handle him a little bit... If you don't handle him at all then he won't ever want to be handled. I got mine to like me by taking her out of...
