    new chameleon room

    Great job! I can't wait until I have the space to do something like that... I agree. At one point I had a young male veiled (he wasn't even showing bars yet) across the room from my female veiled. I thought they'd be fine because they were a good distance apart and he was young anyway, but...

    Feeder breeder

    I hear dubia are very easy to breed, and they're great feeders for chams. Welcome to the forums, and congrats on your new additions. :D You do have the chams housed separately, right? First question that popped into my head, so just wanted to check. :)

    2x2x4 plant???

    What type of schefflera do you have? I have scheffleras in two of my large cages, and they fill them out perfectly for each situation. One of my chams is a very adept hunter, so I got a really wide schefflera for her and it fills out her cage completely. It's like a mini jungle in there, and...

    Tongue STILL inaccurate?

    Interesting read. I will check out the book you recommended as well. Thanks!

    Tongue STILL inaccurate?

    Ok, I see that I was mistaken about the vitamin A. I guess my brain somehow linked the multivitamin/calcium thing with thinking about oxalic acids in spinach, carrots, etc. binding to calcium and hindering its absorption. Regardless, can you please tell me why the multivitamins and calcium...

    Have to open my mouth

    In defense of those members, I don't think they usually mean to come across as disrespectful. I think a lot of members view this forum very much as a community of friends, or peers at least, hence the sarcastic banter. And in a certain sense, we are all peers because we share a similar hobby...

    Have to open my mouth

    I totally agree :) I was just playing devil's advocate and saying that there are times when I can understand why people become hostile toward someone who is being ridiculous. I personally try not to do that though, and if I ever have, I can promise it was entirely unintentional. I always make...

    Have to open my mouth

    I agree. :) Everyone should be treated with dignity and respect. On the other hand, people also shouldn't be so quick to take offense to some things, especially in an online setting. Since you can't read someone's tone on a forum, miscommunication is very common. Therefore, everyone should be...

    I need help

    Agreed. I know you wanted a male, but on the plus side, she's got some really nice female colors :) Remember to be ready for egg-laying! Check out this blog: https://www.chameleonforums.com/blogs/jannb/345-egg-laying-laying-bin.html

    I need help

    If you can post more pictures of the base of the tail, it will help us be able to tell more easily. The colors you're describing are characteristic of males, but females can sometimes show a bit of color as well. It is certainly possible that she could be a male, maybe a pink panther, although...

    Tongue STILL inaccurate?

    I am not an expert by any means; that is just information that I have been told and have seen posted here in several places. If I am wrong, please correct me. I feel sure there is some reason that I have been told repeatedly not to mix calcium and multivitamins (other than the ones formulated to...

    When Do You Need What for a New Chameleon?

    https://www.chameleonforums.com/blogs/jannb/325-info-new-keepers-young-veiled-panther-chameleons.html That is a great blog to get you started. I'm sure others with post more links with more comprehensive information about supplements, gutload, etc. It is true that chameleons are an exotic...

    Tongue STILL inaccurate?

    I have to comment... This is not the supplement schedule. This may be a commonly recommended schedule, but it is not the only way to keep a healthy chameleon. Beyond that, Repashy Calcium Plus (which OP uses) was formulated to replace the need for a schedule. Many keepers are now using it as...

    Tongue STILL inaccurate?

    Ah, that's the problem. You can't mix calcium and a multivitamin. The vitamin A and calcium bind together and basically cancel each other out, to my understanding. On his multivitamin day, you need to dust his crickets with the multivitamin instead of calcium. A healthy cham should get...

    Tongue STILL inaccurate?

    So you have Herptivite? That is the best reptile multivitamin, in my opinion. Anyway, you're not mixing it with the calcium, are you? As long as you are giving him the multivite on a separate day from the calcium, I'd say just give it time. A vitamin deficiency doesn't go away overnight...

    That would be... unbelievable. :p lol

    Your girl is very pretty. :) It's unfortunate that your pet store is unreliable, but she should make a good pet regardless. Many people would not recommend breeding her in order to help prevent undisclosed mixing of locales. Just remember, please use integrity if you do breed her. You need to...

    Found a pac man frog

    Make sure the tank has decent humidity - you might want to mist him. Also, pacman frogs love to bury themselves in moss, plants, dirt, etc. I've never had one, but that's what I know about them.

    Ceramic Heat Emmiters vs Infrared heat lights (for nighttime use)

    I feel like the people who are commenting that nighttime heat is unnecessary are missing the point. This is a great study, and I would love to share the results with some of my pet store coworkers who are still recommending red bulbs. Do you mind? Also, I would love to see your results with...
