Due to an extended out of country trip planned this year I am parting with this animals and leaving the hobby for the time being.

Thanks guys it was a good day. The new camera has presented a steep learning curve, and I still have a ways to go. I moved over to the dark side for a bit. Still have the 1d Mark II, and all its glass but decided to diversify with a D200. Thanks Will, I would only dream of being in that guys...
Ice has dominated the landsacpe here in Oklahoma for the past week and I decided to get out and put my camera to some use other than taking pics of chams. Thought I would share some pictures here for those interested. Enjoy!

Before we go MBD crazy here lets stop for a minute.
First veiled chameleons are more often than not traded at 1-3 weeks of age from breeder to retailer. They are very hardy and with a bit of basic husbandry do fine. I am not saying selling 2 week old chameleons of any species to novice...
I also suggest that once a topic for a structured chat is decided upon a facilitator be chosen. There could be a time frame in which forum members could email or post specific question that the facilitator could research prior to the scheduled chat. This process would assure accuracy...
Please start a new thread, and provide full details, caging, diet, husbandry, etc. There is a Q&A sticky in the health forum that will provide us some detail to make an informed guess.
Stuey,
even if it went off once an hour 24 hours a day we are only talking 12 combined minutes of misting a day.
The bigger issue is most chameleons do not start normal eye grooming or drinking behaviors for several minutes (some species as much as 15 to 20) after the mist starts. You...
Ok well since we seem to have enough interest we need to decide on some topics.
my suggestions:
Caging
Lighting
Watering Methods
Supplementation
Husbandry 101 (Beginners Only)
Please add a few or delete a few and lets get a list together for Brads poll.
Holy Cow Man!
Are you saying that the only misting he gets is 30sec every 6 hours?
If so then NO he is not getting enough water! Drippers may supply drinking water but you are not providing him the opportunity to bathe or wash his eyes. Chameleons absorb a good deal of water through...
Well if enough are interested maybe Brad would be so kind as to create a poll for the topic of discussion. Once selected you guys could elect a few "facilitators" and set the date and time of the chat. Sounds like a more organized way of doing it then we have done in the past.
