It depends what kind of chameleon it is .Some chameleons require higher humidity levels such as jacksons and other species found in the mountains. I have a female jacksons, so i use a humidifier i rigged up with vinyl tubing. Live plants will also help keep humidity levels up as well . Here is a...

So true. It just bothers me knowing that chameleon is suffering from improper care. Your ideology on not giving the owner satisfaction makes complete sense. Thank you so much for your valuable input. Im just hoping the owner comes to his senses and offers to rehome instead.

I told him I will care for the chameleon properly if he is willing to take a loss on it. I just think he thought they were simple to care for, and less time consuming. If he only feeds it once a week, i cant imagine how many mistings the poor cham gets. I know someone stated they wouldnt spend a...

I finally got more pictures from the owner. some of the saddest pictures ive seen of what could be a beautiful chameleon if taken care of properly. He/she was showing awesome colors when taken care of properly ( first picture). The owner says he has no time and feeds once a week. Looks super...

I have seen babies as young as 5 monthes showing amazing colorations. I found it weird to see that the owner has had him for 9 months and that is the color he is showing. The owner did state that he had no time to feed him and due to his scheduale has even forgotten to feed him. I am just trying...

I am in the works of getting better pictures. I will post them here as soon as i get them from the seller.

I have the chance to pick this little guy up ( he claims its a male). Just want to be sure he is a Sambava panther. Thank you!

Congratulations on your new baby! Its a must to post pictures! cant wait to see him grow on these forums. Im new to chameleon keeping also, and everyone here has been a huge help. You will learn so much from just reading up on the forums and from peoples experience.

From what ive read and seen, chameleons like to be placed high up. Your set up is looking good, but just find a higher table to set the enclosure on. Also add more vines and plants to give him or her more hiding spots and climbing areas. I also feel like your limiting your area by using such a...

i always try to go the poor people route and many people on this forum have helped me with many ideas. I want to keep my chameleon happy but dont want to go to over budget. The humidifiers were actually on sale at CVS, they were buy one get one half off. Reptifoggers are the same thing as this...

thank you. Yes, it is my female jackson.

Went the youtube route. here is the link. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G_UgaZWKJDA&feature=youtu.be

do you know how to upload videos on here?

I picked up a CVS portable personal humidifier. It uses an adapter that fits standard water bottles. Duct taped some vinyl tubing to the humidifier, and ran the tubing to a piece of PVC pipe that i had drilled holes into. Set it on a timer to run 2 hours on, 1 hour off, and so on for the...

Thank you for the helpful links and information. I will mist for longer amounts of time, to give her more time to drink .I did forget to mention how i gutload. I feed my feeders, carrot, lettuce, celery, orange, apples, and oats as of now. I will read the gutloading link you sent me to compare...

Thank you all for responding. the picture posted of the "slug" does look different to what i found. I will keep an eye on her when misting to make sure she is drinking. again thanks for giving me insight and educating me to what this could be, she is my first chameleon and I have alot of...

hello all, just got back from work and noticed my female jackson left a good sized orange ball looking thing at the bottom of the enclosure. Im not trying to worry about it but would like some info. I know yellow or orange in her urate would mean she is dehydrated, but i have seen her drink...

Yes i am misting atleast 4-5 times a day. I also add ice cubes to the top that act as rain when i am going to be out longer. She loves the ice cubes, and when im home, i acually enjoy the sound of the drops falling and hitting the plants. Will be on the hunt for a mister soon

Thank you .lol that was my exact thought, a small childs imagination would be endless if they were a chameleon. I saw your in N. California. What city/ town are you in? i studied at CSUC in Chico, CA for 4 years. I loved being away from the city, and being closer to nature while living out there.

I can relate .my female jackon, was on my hand today, and pretty much threw herself foward at my glasses. She caught my lip and grabbed on, it made my eyes tear up
