Make sure to increase your misting schedule for your new boy. Reptar appeared to be very dehydrated on top of the reproductive issues. Sunken eye turrets are an indicator of dehydration.

Quick on the draw today!

There's a ton to mention here. Your enclosure is way off of what a Veiled needs. Fill out the help form, and myself and other members can respond appropriately.

My Panther definitely prefers hunting over cup feeding. He'll only eat his supers and the occasional hornworm out of my hand. My Veiled seems to want to cup feed more often. Just depends on his mood I suppose! Different personalities shining through.

My two prefer worms by hand. They like to hunt roaches and crickets, but like the hornworms and supers by hand. It's probably because the insects are moving more when held.

Beautiful pair! I look forward to seeing the new generation of CB parsonii. Definitely exciting times.

Very nice! I like the yellows and the candy cane face!

If his living conditions are improper, he won't be comfortable and under constant stress. If he isn't comfortable and under constant stress, he won't eat.

You definitely need to be monitoring and maintain proper humidity levels. Jackson's Chameleons are a montane species with humidity requirements like any other cham. Jacksons like to be kept around 70%. Also, you said you're using ReptiSafe as a supplement? Like the water conditioner ReptiSafe?

I just buy the little deli cups. Easy to find at most restaurant/restaurant supply stores. Most feeder sites and reptile stores selling feeders carry them too. Support our site sponsors if possible! Usually around $1.

I use plain distilled water in my MistKing. No conditioner added. As for the multivitamins, you will need those as they are a necessary part of supplementing your cham. Rep-Cal, the brand you have in the photo, makes a good product. Like mentioned above, check your animals breed-specific care...

My Veiled hated misting sessions until I started warming the MistKing reservoir. Now he's much more tolerant.

Dubias always work for me when my chams don’t seem to want anything else.

Research relentlessly to ensure your setup is right the first time. Read everything on the forum and other reputable chameleon sources. Look at photos of other’s enclosures and components. Get your supplements and feeders in line. Once you get everything together, make sure your new enclosure is...

Looking good! I’m enjoying watching my male Panther grow up and change colors too. Always fun.

It was all pretty well covered above. Live foliage, an automatic misting system, linear UVB, and some horizontal branches to allow your cham to settle in the temp and exposure of their choosing.

The first photo is awesome! Such vivid coloring! Fantastic looking chams.

My Veiled hates the MistKing, but my Panther loves it. If I were you, I’d try to get your chameleon in to see a reptile vet. I prefer to be safe than sorry. Since you just got him, you don’t know his history, and he has the visible tail deformity. The vet can run all the checks to ensure your...
