I have two that I highly recommend: Vincent at Screameleons and Mike at FlChams Both are extremely knowledgeable and put out top quality animals. Vincent has some of the most spectacular blood lines anywhere.

bodom85, I can not express to you what a good decision you are making. Get your money back. I highly recomend Mike at FlChams he is very knowledgable and has quality animals. Give him a call and he will set you up. He often has veileds that are still young but not babies, this is where you...

bodom85, Sorry to say but this is not a good situation. Yes chameleons are often injured in holding facilities by other chams because they are often crammed into cages with multiple species and way too many animals. The problem becomes that any injury is almost always infected because of the...

One more thought before anyone else runs and lets their emotions convince them to save an animal from the local pet store. I disagree, "he" way not worth $2000 nor the emotional cost to you. The jackson, by the level of current importation is of stable population in the wild, it is...

This is where the issue lies. You are correct animals do feel things, pain, hunger, the need to mate, etc. However they do not have the human perceptions that create emotion. Emotion 1. an affective state of consciousness in which joy, sorrow, fear, hate, or the like, is experienced, as...

Friend, I quite frankly do not see your point. They are specimens not pets. You pay for quality specimens not a buddy. All this petting and holding and walking around with them on your shoulder, TAKING THEM TO THE BEACH, is the reason many are sick and dying. Do not humanize them they have...

Awesome, just one question. Who built the viv? It looks great.

Mark, here is the deal, I am not attempting to come across rude or emotionless. You bought a product, in this case yes it is a living animal. With that purchase there is an implied and often written promise of health. If you had bought say a CD at BestBuy and put it in your CD player in...

You have not contacted LLL at all? This seems silly, they should have been your first call. Many retailers do not raise all/many of the young chameleons they sell. In some cases they may not have even really inspected a large quantity shipment of chameleons. It is unlikely that they...

Cisco, the question would become if you are going to keep the cham outside at night when it is 40! If so you will need to find someway to heat the cage. I assume you heat your home, right? Most species really need a night time temperature drop. Certain montane species live in areas with...

I am really surprised that we have dropped the issue of the breeder/retailer. LLL has a good reputation and I am sure would be very glad to be informed of the situation and help you out any way they can. Chameleon keeping is tough enough with healthy chams. Humanizing the animal and...

Brad, is there something wrong with the chat I keep getting the following error. Connecting... Unable to connect : java.net.UnknownHostException : irc.efnet.info Thanks!

Just for temptation sake here are a few pics of the CH deremensis I recieved from Mike a while back.

Wow, I assume we are talking about Chamaeleo (Trioceros) deremensis. These guys are great. I feel they are likely one of the best first montane chameleons for a keeper, but probably not the best "first" chameleon. They are very hardy if provided the proper environmental parameters. They are...

The question that comes to mind instantly is why? Do you just not like either plant? There is likely no better ready available plant for a chameleon that WILL eat foliage than the hibiscus. Pothos would be a close second. Umbrella being my third. I would caution against the ficus with know...

This is really poor information. Some chameleons do adapt to living surrounded by their reflections just as some do adapt to living communally despite them largely being solitary animals. There is no situation in which glass provides any advantage, and never any situation in which glass is...

Jerm, now listen I really had enough chameleons! Now I have to buy more. Yours look awesome. What size terraria are you using? Substrate and setup similar to Roo's suggestions in the article on brev care? What are you feeding, being that they are a bit bigger I am assuming I could get away...

Gee thanks Robert. Welcome to Chameleon Forums.

She looks nice. Please remove her from the shiny glass cage that is reflecting like a mirror and making her feel as if someone is watching her and invading her territory at all times. From another post:

Thanks guys, yes they are in cages. I try as hard as possible to replicate nature as best I can, for the chams health, aesthetics, and photography, in the end though they are cages. The majority of the branches are aged peach tree, and mulberry. I use a variety of different cameras, from...
