I moved his basking light up 2 inches (it's a 40w incandescent bulb) just as a precaution until I'm sure he'll be okay. I attached pictures. He's roughly 10weeks old now
Thanks to all the suggestions. He's been eating around 10-12 small crickets a day now. He's becoming a little chubby guy. But his teal/turquoise color is coming out a lot too
Yeah I ordered one online on Friday. But i only used ground shipping so I don't know how long until it gets here. I'll have to try to find it in a store here...
Thanks for all of your inputs from chameleonmom and pssh. I'm going to take a trip to Walmart later and buy a feeding container. Is there anywhere I can get pure calcium? Everywhere I've gone only has calcium with d3
Okay I will definitely try that out. I thought maybe it had something to do with the fact I just got him 3 or 4 days ago. So his coloring is just due to a near shedding coming?
He's being cup fed. I put about 10 in and he eats as much as he wants and crawls away. So i try again with more at night time. I've introduced small crickets to him too and he ate like 5-6 in a day. Should I use those instead?
I recently picked up my first chameleon. I purchased from an acquaintance of mine. From what I was told the baby veiled is 1 and a half months old. I guess I just want to know if this color is out of the norm.
