My new cham came today from FL Chams. DHL left him sitting outside our other door even though me and roomate were home all day. Anways when I took him out he was black, he still is very dark colors. Dark green, brown and sometimes close to black. I'm guessing its because he's stressed or...
Male
It seems that most people own males due to the fact that 1:Easier to care for, 2:Live longer, 3:Have brighter colors. I don't know much about female chams but I due know that they require more advanced care, espially since they have egss. I am not that knowledgable about the different...
Pm
Noah, I also sent you a private messge. You can find it on the right hand side of the screen if you scroll down it should say you have 1 or maybe more private messages.
no worries
I think you're fine. I always have crickets roaming around my cage. If you released some crickets and some silkies before you left there would be plenty of food for your chameleon. Also I'd just be sure to feed him once you got home. If I were you I would probably get veiled or...
snakes
I have always been a fan of snakes. They are beautiful creatures and very fun to handle/observe. I was about 50/50 between getting a new snake or a cham. I decided on the cham. Snakes can go a very long time without eating. Also you can get snakes that eat frozen/thawed mice. They...
Getting ready to buy a ficus from local green house to make a new enclosure. Just wanted to see some pics of everyone elses cages since all pictures are of just the chams. Everyones enclosures vary greatly and just wanted to see what is out there.
I just purchased a sunburst veiled from Mike after having bad experience with first cham (was a baby less than 1 month old) Mike said he is shipping out Monday so that means he will be here Tuesday. Just wondering what the difference between sunburst and regular veiled is. Im guessing...
holes
I had some problem of water staying up top, I just took a knife and made a little bit bigger holes. Works perfect and doesn't comprise my cage at all.
New veiled
Yesterday I called my credit card company to cancel my payement to Ray. Hopefully everything goes good and I will get my $100 back. Once (if) I get this money I will be buying another veiled. Currently the pet store in my town has veileds. They were bought as babies and now one...
Male or female?
Was wondering how to tell if its a male or female. I order a male but like I said he came from Rays Reptilia so who knows what I got. I thought veileds were easier to sex than panthers so fuck wondering what sex I got.
Not happy with Ray
Never ever buy anything from Ray's reptilia. He is the one who sent me baby instead of 5 month old. Also had problems with shipping and them being totally unprofesional. Hard to contact and poor solutions to problems. He has ruined my whole cham experience hopefully the...
pictures up
Ok couldn't figure out how to post pics in threads but I have some up under my gallery. He is fun to try to find in this big cage, like I said I was planning on getting a larger chameleon than him. The last pic is of a few crickets but its really blurry. Also they are very tiny...

Could be an internal problem. Chameleons show their condition through their skin (as I'm sure you know) and if there is internal problems it might cause it. Also if you pick her up and get got squeezed to hard that might have cuased it.
