Found this on youtube. It's not in english. It's about the best cham video I have seen. Follows the adventures of a group of chams, from hatching, to mating: It's about 42 minutes long. Hope you guys enjoy it as much as I did: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NI-mN-LOYjc

There is no reason to think this product is even safe for reptiles, much less effective. See this link: http://skeptvet.com/Blog/2012/01/verm-x-herbal-parasite-control-no-real-evidence-to-show-it-is-safe-or-effective/

If you lurk ebay, sometimes you can get a good deal on a used X-large reptibreeze cage. At any rate, you do need to get your cham out of that little box ASAP.

Your taking them to the zoo? I didnt know zoos would accept animals raised by regular people. Is it a privatly owned zoo? What did you need to do to donate them, any forms and such?

One thing to keep in mind with jax is water, and lots of it! Instead of a misting system, I strongly recommend a rain system, automated so it goes off during the day. Jax are used to wet, humid climats of the mountain reagions in Africa, where it often rains several days at a time in the...

Ha! sounds like the stupid thing I did once in an elevator in my building at work. Remember when coke came in glass bottles from those old vending machines? Well, once I got 2 bottles, both opened, holding them between my fingers on one hand, and my lunch in the other hand. While riding the...

I like to use natural tree branches. Choose branches that are smooth, and not much bark or loose skin for tiny insects and parasites to hide in. Pick branches that very in thickness, chams are unique in the reptile world in that they have long enough legs and wide feet so they can climb on...

Avoid Fluker's brand gut loads, they are crap! Cricket crack is only available online from Tiki Tiki repiles website. Repashy's Bug Burger is another good gutload. You mix it with water, and it forms a solid that you can slice and feed to your cricks. It has everything they need already...

You dont want to use spinach, it's high in oxalic acid which interferes with the absorption of the calcium. Same with stuff like broccoli and cabbage. Check out Sandra's blogs of fruits and veggies that are good to use as gutloads. She is our resident expert :) Short list of good gutload...

One of my veiled cham's is a runt. He is a full adult, but about half the size of my other veiled. Otherwise, he is perfectly normal. He does like to eat a lot. Always hungry! Maybe when he was little, his clutch mates were more aggresive, and he didnt get his share of food.

The veiled cham in the first pic is older than 5 months. Looks more like a year, maybe more?!

Lets see pics :D And you have me curious, what about the container, can you show us what it looks like?

That looks great!! What photoshop are you using? So clean and natural looking :eek:

I understand exactly what you mean. It seems most people think all lizards are like snakes, evil and slimy. I get this sentiment a lot more from religous, old testiment fanatics; the biblical evil serpent devil incarnate in a talking snake :rolleyes: Everyone in my family thinks I'm nuts...

We get really dry too with the heat on in the house. All my guys have either automatic rain or misting systems, and their cages are covered on 3 sides with thick plastic. I also keep a 10gal humidifier going every day (off at night).

Exactly, also, the knowledge base is lacking on the more exotic species. Not enough people own them, so not much exchange of husbandry experience. Which leads into what you are saying.

Mine is strictly a solo thing. My brother lives with me, he doesnt want anything to do with the chams, could not care less. He never even looks at them. So, I am their true one and only Daddy :D

To keep the RH up in my screen cages, I put thick plastic sheets, cut to size, and cover the back, and one, or both sides. I buy cheap shower curtain liners, clear or white. Start with just the back, and one side. Then, if you still cant keep the RH up, cover the other side. You can...

Fruit flies are fairly easy to get rid of by using some sort of sweet smelling bait. If they are fungus gnats, those are harder.

LOL! yep, that would be us alright!!
