I let my cham. explore my room yesterday... and now he wants nothing more than to be out of his cage... looking back, I probably shouldn't have given him the taste of the outside world :/
I sorta do, but I say things like, "Dude, you cant climb that.... you cant climb that! Damn it Goggles your not gonna make i........ ugh.... I told you, yea I know it hurt, next time listen to me!"
I started off with a Fischer's and I have yet to have a problem with him, I think Fisher's are easier to care for than a veiled or a panther... their harder to come by though
I asked some seemingly obvious questions, then graduated to to more specific questions, did tons of research, and now I know enough about my Cham. and his setup to give him a happy comfortable home without having to spend much money, I built my own cage, I built my own dripper, and I grew my own...

Am I the only one who does a little victory dance whenever my chameleon eats??? I mean, its an exciting thing, it might as well be telling you "don't worry, i'm still king of this cage". its just such a reassuring thing!
But when they are stressed they don't like it, or else they wouldn't have a negative reaction to it, not liking the feeling of stress would be discontent, discontent is an emotion. Even if a organism is only capable of simple emotion, it is still emotion and it is still worthy of recognition.
What I find interesting about chameleons is that they are capable of the comprehension of emotion. I don't claim to know what chameleons feel (especially because mine doesn't seem to take much liking to me yet) but, I do think that since it is on the more advanced end of he reptile world, and...
My Cham. seems to love munching on pill bugs (rolly pollys, whatever you want to call them) do they pack the same nutrition as a cricket? should I leave this only as a treat?
