Seem to be having trouble with the attachements.
Here is a link to a thread i posted a few weeks back with some pictures of the little guy. He's named keyser Soze after the movie the usual suspects with kevin spacey (spacedog) lol.

I've attached what I happen to have on my work pc from a few weeks ago. I've actually been having trouble getting him to eat what he should. He's only been eating 2-3 medium sized crickets, but I'm not sure he's really liked the cup feeders I've been trying. Starting a few days ago I've...
I'm wondering when to start varying soze's diet. He's just turned 3 months. I know normally you want to make sure what your offering is not wider than the space between the eyes; how does this apply to worms as they are sort of oddly shaped. I want to be sure not to offer anything he could...

So I started collecting supplies for my new panther cham about 2 months ago at a petco near me. coincidently, chameleons had just become legal in MA and my local petco had just gotten it's first chameleon for sale.
His husbandry is awful. They're keeping him in a glass enclosure, with some...
I'm looking to setup a little free range area my 3 m.o panther could climb into on his own out of his cage when I'm in the room too try to socialize him/ make him feel less trapped. I've been looking at some large artificial ficus trees. Would this be safe? does anyone know if these are made...
I'm getting them at a local exotic pet shop. Getting about 50 "smalls" at a time, which are mostly right around 1/4, maybe some a bit bigger. I have the regular old small "Kricket Keeper" brand one with the two plastic tubes. I've only been buying 50 because I have such a small keep. It is...
I think I'm loosing way too many crickets to the reaper. I'm I usually put a different food or vegatable shaved with a cheese grater or cut up real small in a sufle cup that i've cut in half every time i feed them. I've been keeping a wet paper towel in there folded up into a small cube (not...
Camimom,
He is near a windows. They have heavy blinds and curtains, but you may be right. I hadn't thought of this.
Zsazsa85,
Yes, he actually sleeps. As long is there is not too much comotion around he will be asleep right around 5. I thought this might be unuasual since his lights...
I currently have my baby panther in an 18x18x36 repti-breeze cage. I know I will need a bigger space for him as he grows, and from what I understand, the larger the space they are given the better chameleons will do in captivity.
I'm thinking of maybe converting a huge old china cabinet...
I have had my 10 week old panther for about 2 weeks now. I have his lights on a timer to run 9 -9. He continues to sleep at 8 am (lights still off for another hour) when i mist him and put crickets in his SunnyD feeder cup before heading to work. when I get home from work around quarter of 5 I...
I have him in an 18x18x36 but plan on moving him to a 30x30x60 enclosure when he's a year old. Any suggestions on a model that would suffice for both? how much do they run for? I saw some pictures, and they looked confusing, like theyre might be some assembly involved..
For my 2.5 m/o panther I am currently running a drip all day and misting at lights on, mid day, and near lights off with a hand pump misting bottle. I have also placed my humidifier to blow right into his cage all off the time (he seems to love sleeping with this blowing right into him all night...
