That tank is really not the best place for him either, if you are going to keep him in there you really need to monitor the temps and humidity carefully. i also found that anything with a lid rather than a door is a right pain in the ass as you have to remove everything to get in there. If i...

I personally dont like your heat lamp arrangement as it looks quite easy for your cham to grab and Im guessing that cage around it will get quite hot. I also wouldn't put a bulb inside the cage as when its misted there's a decent chance of it exploding as happened to me but luckily mine was...

welcome, he looks like a cool little guy. The gaps in his cage look pretty big can he fit through them?

Im taking my veiled to the vets tomorrow just for a check up. I havent had him long and just want to make sure everything is ok

cool, i got given a large tub of mini mealworms as the majority of them looked dead but i think they were just cold as a few day in a warm tank totally revived them. As i only ever give my veiled the odd one or two they will last me forever so i was thinking of separating some and pupating them...

meal beatles slightly off topic but are meal beatles ok to feed to chameleons?

thanks thats a handy site

aw shes such a cutie, she makes me want to get a girlie for my boy.

haha thanks, he actually has a few tiny bruises from when he managed to squeeze himself through a tiny gap where the mesh in his cage wasnt fastened properly and escape. i though he may have burnt himself as i found him laying between his lights but most of the marks have faded or gone now. like...

here's a few pics of my boy Doc who is now 4 1/2 months old and turning into a right terror. If you don't have food you ain't friends, lucky i had a juicy waxworm to offer while taking these. I just love him, even when he's all hissy :)

a 16/8 cycle sounds like your growing weed ;)

are you sure its a male?

you may never catch him drinking, as long as his uriate is white then hes hydrated. Dont feed him mealworms regularly, use them as a treat and only give a few as they have a hard chitin shell which can lead to impaction.

is the water bowl to drink from or just to collect any excess water?

My young Yemen's behavior usually changes when he sheds. He doesnt eat as much and usually moves around his cage to places he doesnt normally go.

I have a morning routine where I turn on his lights, start his dripper, spray his cage and then stick in his feeders. I sometimes give him the odd meal worm or wax worm later in the day as a treat if he has eaten everything already or some of his feeders have died but I never really give him...

You really need a digital thermometer to monitor the temps and hygrometer to measure humidity, they are only cheap to buy. Is your UVB light 10w or is it a 10% UVB, this is quite important so please post the make and model of this light. Also you dont need a night light, Chameleons prefer...

green means go, amber means get ready, red means stop ;)

you wont believe the amount they can eat, especially at that age during a growth period. just make sure you arent feeding him bugs which are too large for him.

hi, veileds are pretty cheap in the UK, you can usually get them from between £40 - £70 from pet shops. you can pick them up cheaper on the UK reptile forum, or even the classified section on here but theres not many uk. heres the basics of what you should get: a Zoo Med Repti-Sun 5.0 uvb...
