    all 3 pics from today! my new lil guy :)

    thank you! and aint that the truth! I am seriously fighting the urge to go and stare at him because I know it stresses him out. Esp since I have had him only 24 hours. But every few hours I will go and peek in on him for a min or two. I wish I could just watch him all day lol

    Listen, I know I have only had him since yesterday but it still amazes me all the colors they can turn in such little time. He doesnt have any real colors coming in, but his basking color, resting color, and shedding colors are still so amazing! All pics taken from today. The dark colors was him...

    What does everyone keep their room temps at where your chameleon is?

    I am curious what everyone keeps the room temp at. The room my chameleon will be in only has a heater and I am in NY. I thought that since the room usually adjusts well to outdoor temps that this would be ok, but the next few weeks it's going to be mid 90's! This caused me to panic buy an ac for...

I assume this is not good right? I dont have the lights on right now, infact didnt have...

    I got pics of my new baby!

    I got some pics of my new baby from framschams! He should be here next Wednesday. Any ideas on names? I like horror movie themed names because I’m weird 😂 but his dad is Gary, ironically the same name as my fiancé. But I’m unsure of what colors he may end up with. I attached a pic of Gary that...

    mistking

    This is excellent info! Thanks so much! I should have mentioned that I do have a drain tray at the bottom of the cage. It’s only a few inches high though but it’s something. (Attached a pic of what I have). The desk is also stained and I do believe it’s water resistant but not entirely sure. But...
